Re: NRX 894 vs MB Nautilus for 1/2oz jigs in 15 to 20ft

Maybe a 3rd challenger. Has anyone ever used an Evergreen Heracles Strike Airy Flip ? It's a 154g rod with a recommended lure and line rating of; 1/4~1・1/2oz and 12~30lb respectively so looks promising. Evergreen labels it as a Heavy Power (HCSC-75H) rod despite the low lure rating. Now that you ha...

Re: Steez one o one

I was thinking of getting an EX for a bit of variation. Would the EX perform better than the Steez SV 103 if I put the SV105/103 spool in it. Any reel I get goes to Ian for super tuning and generally gets a bearing upgrade. Oh yes! But it might not be able to handle the keitech jig probably only di...

Re: The Extreme's Competition

I have 8 DXs and for the right price are great rods. I use and abuse them and haven't had 1 problem. Lately I've been putting my 746 to work pitching and flipping heavy cover and love it. I agree.

I have owned G.Loomis glx, nrx, steez, megabass, shimano, st. Croix, kistler zbone, and various others and the Dobyns dx745 is my favorite rod.

No. The lure and line ratings were not listed. Pretty much a shot in the dark.
