On my way to $100k in earnings as a co angler using NRX rods

I’d hope to see a new Metanium DC... If and when this happens, you'll likely see it announced in a Jan/Feb of that year over in Japan first. Metanium is primarily a JDM brand. and the last one was 2015, not 12, so not quite 10 years but certainly overdue in the typical 3-5 yr product refresh cycle....

Took my old silver Met MGL out with me today for the first time in a year and it feels absolutely shot. And I've been using one of my Calais DC that I hate with one of my other rods and wanted an excuse to replace it, so it seems like it's time to replace them both. I have a Chronarch G that is a d...

ICAST SSSSUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKKKKEEEEEEDDDDDD this year. Hellraizer and frog box. The rest is more of the same.... :-({|= I agree, what a JOKE. I’d hope to see a new Metanium DC, it’s been about 10yrs. But what shitmano do, come out with another curado dc, SMH. The EDGE epitome lightweight rods for $299...

Been had this reel for a month, hg model & got to use it mostly all day yesterday at a bfl throwing a weightless fluke. Had it spooled with 10lb 100% berkley Trilene which is one of the thicker floros & had no issues with capacity. Also didn’t notice a difference in smoothness from the reg Metanium ...

Just a few things I noticed about some random products anyone might be interested in: First off, I went with the orange 16lb Sunline Super Natural, it isn't crazy bright when single, but very ORANGE when on the spool. I did cut about a yard off and test stretch and abrasion, it doesn't have the bes...

Where does the new NRX+ balance with a reel on it? at the nut? With the jdm Metanium & spooled with 12lb floro, the balance is near the black thread on the rod. Balance is not at the locking nut. Just like I thought, not much better than the previous model The reel seat thread? or is there black th...

Hey guys--I'm looking to finally take the plunge and get my first NRX rod and wanted to see if any of you guys might know what the balance point of the new NRX+ 893c is?? I have the first gen Steez Bottom Contact rod and figured that I'll just continue using that as my dedicated 1/2 oz jig setup an...

Looks like these reels are back in stock on digitaka for $293 RH models as of today, has anyone got their hands on one yet?

I’ve had the dobyns dx745, I think it was the 2nd generation. 3/4oz fb jig does tax that rod some & im not going to get into the lack of sensitivity. Right now I’m using the Nrx 894c & never have plans of upgrading. Some people complain about balance on that rod but I have a 2020 jdm Metanium xg on ...

I bought AND sold the Metanium DC twice. The main reason is the Metanium 2020 was cheaper, lighter, cast farther & smoother. At the end of the day, the Metanium DC is just a reel that makes noise. The ‘15 Metanium DC is very outdated. I suspect to see a Metanium DC with a Mgl spool around low 6 ounc...

Looking at the specs on digitaka, 165g which is 5.82oz. The line capacity is 8lb at 100m. I had the Core 50 but couldn’t remember the exact line capacity but I think it’s close. I use a jdm Metanium for jerkbaits on a 7’2M 1st generation Adrena & have plenty line to spare. I bet this will be a aweso...

I purchased this rod last year, it looked awesome & I thought it was the best rod release of last year. I fished it a fair amount fun fishing & actually a whole day of bfl tournament fishing. Coming from fishing Nrx rods for years, other than looks, it didn’t really impress me. I think it’s action i...

I had the old one and the NRX+. I much prefer the NRX +. It has plenty of backbone. I usually have a 1/2 jig tied on and I’m not sure there is a better rod out there for that. I think the weight is actually the same, but the new model balances better and has a more comfortable reel seat. I love it ...
