I got it!

Post by stingray23 » Sat Nov 15, 2014 2:41 am

My Stella came in! Its my first Shimano and I'm excited to get it and feel what its all about. BTW, I ordered it Thursday afternoon and it showed up today, Saturday morning. I cant believe how fast it got here. Anyway, its beautiful and looks and feels great on my newly acquired G. Loomis NRX 842S SJR. This by far my most expensive combo. Cant wait to feel the difference.

Congrats! I think you're going to be blown away with the feel of your new combo.

WARNING: It's a slippery slope experimenting with Stellas and NRXs. :mrgreen:

I dont have line on my reel yet as I am waiting to order 8lb Tatsu, but I cant believe how awesome this combo feels in my hand. Like a weapon.

I was checking out that Exist too. For me, I was initially gonna get a Certate 2510PE-H, but said screw it and got the Stella. I still want that Certate though. Maybe before the year is over. Still have baitcasters and rods to get.

Sweet , I'm waiting for my C3000XGFi to arrive. The rod came last week, an NRX Inshore 882S.
