Re: NRX 893- just amazed the longer I own it

My 893c is one of my favourite rods as well. I moved the Met DC off of it late last fall and put an Aldebaran on it. Just when I thought it couldn't get any better. But don't get me wrong, my 843c MBR is nipping at its heels what do think of 893 vs 843? I am still deciding on getting 893 and do own...

Shimano parts online to Canada

Is there a way to order parts online and specify ship to Canadian address?
There are only USA states in the list and no Canadian provinces available to select.
Thank you.

Re: SC70 and CU70 breaking question

Interesting, no problem for me with 2-3 on depending on lure weight and dial on 5. I have Ch50 and Scorion 1000 xt as well.

glx 2016 mbr 782 or 783

I am planning to get another top water rod, the rod is mostly for megabass POPX, and POP Max, Will 2016 glx 783 be able to cast 1/4 popper or is it better to go with 782? On the other hand will 1/2 pop max be too much for 782? I heard 2016 is a bit lighter power rods compared to the previous generat...

Re: NRX 842

I don't have a problem throwing a Vision 110 on the NRX 842, and it works the baits nicely for me. I do use straight FC line, usually 7# Sunline Super FC Sniper. I throw a lot of Flap Slaps, Pointer 78's, and other smaller treble baits on it and it has been a great rod for those applications. The P...

Re: Now that time has passed, opinions on recoil guides

After owning 3 bcr's...I would have told you REC's didn't bother me. However, finally taking out my 843 nrx I purchased s few months ago, I think I'm ready to say they truly are designed for baits without any resistance. I've been a long time user of the 843 glx for spinnerbsits, and to try out my ...

Re: GLX 854 vs 844

heard about previous 854 being not very sensitive, hope 2016 model is different. I just think 1 inch and xf taper will be better for plastic.
