Interesting, but it's still listed on the Xpeditor Program page. It's $150.

I still love my 783C after 2 weeks.

More than likely Shimano has it listed as it's flagship.

Gloomis is and will always be about the NRX. The name is a staple for sensitivity in the industry. Now Shimano has upped the game and made their name a home run in the rod game as well.

My opinon obviously, but it sounds like a smart marketing strategy.

The website is brand new and still missing a bunch of models. They haven't completed the migration yet, for example the GLX Flip/Punch section doesn't list the 7'11" models, yet they have listed the JWR892C as a Flip/Punch rod. Give them some time and everything should be corrected.

They aren't on the Shimano site either.

Maybe these questions should be directed to Bantam1 under the Shimano Product Support. Couldn't hurt. The kicker is that he's out of the country until later this month.

Ask for facts? What fun would that be? Maybe they're renaming them and will be selling them on a new site after an upcoming release. Something like...
