Nrx spinning rod help
I'm looking to buy a NRX spinning rod but I don't know what to get. I'm looking to throw weightless plastics with it, mostly trick worms. Generally there is a fair amount of weeds where I fish. Right now I'm using an avid 68mxf and looking to upgrade. Also how does the nrx compare to the legend elite, I am also considering one of those.

Re: Nrx spinning rod help
Well, I don't know how the NRX compares with the Legend Elite, but what I can say is that the NRX 852S JWR is the rod you are looking for. Perfect for the lures you mentioned and can handle itself well with a little weeds around.
Re: Nrx spinning rod help
852 but I'd look hard at a 7mf croix. I'd likely take the croix over the nrx.
Re: Nrx spinning rod help
852S is the rod.
Re: Nrx spinning rod help
I don't think you can go wrong with either choice but that 852 is an amazing spinning rod
Re: Nrx spinning rod help
Just got my 852s a couple days ago took it out yesterday..the 852 is perfect for weightless worms,senkos, ikas..etc.. I also tossed some 1/4jogs on it too..spent a good 5hrs just fishing this stick yesterday .caught a couple w the jig and tossing an ika..the rod is pretty dam sensitive and the xf tip makes working your lure a breeze
Re: Nrx spinning rod help
852s is an awesome rod for soft plastic especially for senkos.
Re: Nrx spinning rod help
I'll chime in like everyone else...The NRX 852s is the rod...That being said, since it was mentioned, the 7'MF Legend elite is a sweet stick too (for less money)..I fished the 7'MLF LE for lighter stuff for a long time before selling it...
Re: Nrx spinning rod help
Thanks for all the input, looks like I'll be on the look out for a 852 rep sample

Re: Nrx spinning rod help
The nrx 872 has a little more tip and might be better for weightless worms. Either rod would be a fine choice
Re: Nrx spinning rod help
Yes MLF croix are sweet as well

Re: Nrx spinning rod help
if your near any "true" heavy cover, with big bass, you may want to look into the NRX 804 XMR spinning rod.
it gives you the backbone, if required, to haul a big bass out of heavy cover.

Re: Nrx spinning rod help
Is the 872 more stout than the 852?
Re: Nrx spinning rod help
Yes, nrx852s for weightless senko is something you want. You wont be disappointed.

Re: Nrx spinning rod help
No if any thing its slightly less. To me it feels like the 852 with 2 more inches of tip Its a little softer than the 852 for that reason.jlb wrote:Is the 872 more stout than the 852?
