This post is so derailed I thought we were speaking on Megabass rods breaking while casting. Boat flipping and NRX talk :P

while the reel seats were absolute garbage, I've flipped 100's of bass in the boat on my NRX rods and never had a breakage.

The notion that you can't flip a bass in the boat is ridiculous.
^100% agree. An entire tournament tour/league has arisen in recent years in which 95% of the fish are flipped right into the hands of the angler.

I've also never broke a NRX rod.

I think the last rod I broke was a Dobyns when they first came out....

I did however catch about a 10lb grass carp on my Megabass Flyssa.

Is that what we call the NRX now?
