A green 852 nrx looks and feels great with the 2000
Legend Alpha 211/Merc 250 Pro XS

i got a 2000 when they first went on sale in december, have only had it out twice, but it has performed great... this morning it was about 30 degrees with a nice breeze and it handled the cold with no problems (i have had issues with a couple reels in the cold), anyways i digress..

i havent decided what rod it will be on permanently yet, but it will be one of 2, both st croix legend tournaments, a TWS70MHM or a LTBS69MLXF, it balances pertty well on both. ill just have to play around with them this spring/summer to figure it out!

Mine sits on a BCR852 GLX and I could not be happier.

I throw weightless Senko's and Soft Jerkbaits over moderate grass and love it. Works well for shakey heads and meets my drop shotting needs.

A fuego rod of course, I got mine on the 6'10" MXF. Perfect match :)

i was thinking a fuego rod 6'9" medium light myself... but the new quantum exo spinning rods looks like a winner too! ;)
