I'm into the MBRs. I'm not going to preorder or anything, but if they perform, I would be into upgrading my greens.
Yep, not sure how some don’t like a super high end rod being versatile. I’d rather have versatile than a one trick pony at that price. Helps I love MBR actions as well the fact you can throw a jig and a crankbait on the same high end rod is pretty awesome. Actually thought that’s why so many liked Megabass :-k
Easy with that versatility speak sir. The last time I read you post of such I ended up purchasing a 842c Conquest (jerkbait thread). It’s seen 110’s, Dog-X and finesse j-n-p’s. Great stick. Thanks.

Back on topic, What is the improvement that the NRX+ are supposed to have over the original NRX series?
http://tackletour.com/previewgloomisnrxpluspg2.html

Clicked through the link to the Gloomis site.

Looks like a different reel seat, incorporating the Shimano/Gloomis technology from the Conquest blanks (Spiral X).

Will be curious to read a review of the balance.
Bingo on the balance.
same on the balance. that's been my biggest turn-off with NRXs in the past

If they were able to get the balance and finish on par with its price point, then they'll get my dough.

Is it me or do the JWR handles look shorter in comparison to the CRR or other split grip models?

I am intrigued somewhat, but I can wait for feedback/comparison to the previous models and a deal.

I don't know if this was discussed, but I was pleased to see the Bladed Jig rod. It seems like it may be a little unpowered for say a 1/2oz chatter with a Zako? Going by the lure weight rating of 3/16 - 5/8oz. I know many like a moderate action, and this is fast, so maybe why that's why there's less power?

Does anyone has any info on when the NRX/GLX gonna stop looking like a rod from 1994?
Pretty much the only plus in my book. 😂
