Thank you everyone!

Hi Bass Resource family, I have a 1625 Lund Fury XL. I am looking to upgrade my trolling motor. I know I need 80lb thrust + 60" shaft length so far, however, I mainly fish rough waters on Detroit River or Rondeau Bay. Do you think it's enough? Do I need auto stow? Also, I come out to Kawartha Lakes in east end Ontario so might need a trolling motor that can handle shallow water also. Any suggestions? Cheers!

This is exciting. Looks like its following the path of Conquest... Do we know if they will continue to offer NRX or + line is replacing it?

Hey BR fam, Any update on this topic? I have been a loomis fan since I can remember. Recently I bought my first Daiwa reel and I was blown away. I currently have 4 nrx and 1 poison adrena for crankbait. This makes me wonder how a steez rod would go with my steez a reel. I use 854 for flipping (3/8oz with t-rig beaver) and would be replacing it with the bottom contact. Is that a good replacement? Thanks!

Thanks dude, super helpful! I am about to pick up a Steez A today! And hopfully the new Zillion 10 for flipping in a week or so. I was a full shimano guy but needed a change.

Hey I have a bunch or NRX's and never thought I would be interested in any other rod but this year's new Xtreme definitely intrigues me. Do you think they are better multi purpose rods or a good replace flipping stick? I am either going to replace 853 or my 854. I use 853 for a bunch of applications but my 854 is strictly for flipping. Thanks!

Can you further clarify the new legend extreme vs NRX rods? Thanks!

Anything loomis

I spray on all types of line before winter storing

853c nrx gloomis

853c nrx gloomis

Straight braid for me

Based on my experience it depends the value that the seller put on the shipping

I’m a Loomis fan but heard lots of people like the expride but only down side is warranty especially when you are paying that much for a rod

Everything looks good the details others are mentioning are preference

I only use power pro super slick. Want to try sunline

50+

6” St croix panfish series with any brand 2500 size reel. In my opinion the reel must balance with rod which results in the length but nothing longer then 6”5

I have 5 of their rods and I can tell you each one is unique with its flaw but why would a hook keeper affect the performance lol

Conquest

Curado k and then chronarch

Everything rod glove.

LOOMISSSSSSSSSSSS

Hi BR, Hope everyone is having a hell of a summer. After I Cast 2017, a big release was the Conquest rods by G loomis and Shimano. It seems they have finally woven the best of the two organizations technology and come up with CONQUEST. Any thoughts on these rods? $650 USD. WOW Tight lines -Drunkentigerrr

Hi BR, As mentioned in my earlier post, here are my new arsenal for 2017. 4 more days here in Ontario Canada till the bass opener! Tight lines boys!
