Re: G Loomis nrx

I fish the Delta 3 days a week and use a Conquest 903 and an NRX 893 for senkos amd the weights you mentioned. 50 pound braid is a bit much for me when Im pitching senkos around tules. I’m more of a 14 fluoro kinda guy. Pulled a 7 pounder out of the tules last week with my 903, 14 fluoro, wacky rigg...

Re: Observations of Conquest 904c vs. NRX894c

I caught a 10 pounder fishing a frog a few weeks ago with the 904 through thick grass. No power issues here. Also caught one just under 10 a month ago during FLW practice with the 904 throwing an A Rig, very versatile. Also caught multiple 2-4's last weekend at Clear Lake pitching a t-rigged craw ar...

Re: 7.1 or 7.3 ft rod for hollow bodied frogs

I currently use the NRX 873 and it rocks. I recommend checking out the new IMX Pro TWFR 884 or 885. It’s a 7’4” but made specifically for frog fishing. IMX Pro 874 is a 7’3” and would also work well.

Re: Shimano Loomis Conquest rods

Just received my Conquest MBR 903 and took it to my local reservoir today for a test run. Here's my first impressions. Sensitivity: On par with the NRX. Plain and simple. I have a lot of time with my NRX 893 which has a similar rating to the Conquest 903 but a different taper and the sensitivity to ...

Re: G. Loomis IMX Pro Casting Rod 7'3" Heavy 874C CRR

I use an NRX 873 for Carolina rigs and hollow bellow frogs and I'm fishing in thick grass with giant fish. Works great thus far, IMX 874 should be great for your needs as well.
