GLX 894 vs 895
GLX 894 vs 895
Pardon my ignorance, but what’s the difference between the 894 vs 895? Is the 895 more versatile? Have a different action? Everywhere I look gives a weight range of 1/4 - 1 oz, but the 894 is only 5/16 - 3/4. Will the 895 really handle that light of a bait very well?

I have not fished with the 895 , only held it to see how it felt. It is a very stout rod and will not handle 1/4 oz baits in my opinion. Maybe something like 1/2 oz on up.

894 handles up to 3/4 oz very well, 895 does not handle 1/4 at all. 895 is a very stout stick and rather tip heavy. 894 is the more versatile of the two by far.

Would you say the 894 would work as a good power shot rod? I typically throw a PS with a 1/4 oz weight around lay downsDChiWildcats wrote: ↑Sat May 25, 2019 2:38 pm894 handles up to 3/4 oz very well, 895 does not handle 1/4 at all. 895 is a very stout stick and rather tip heavy. 894 is the more versatile of the two by far.

It could. I power shot a lot with an 893 - 16 lb fluoro and 1/4 oz.
