Your Dream Jig Rod -1/4-1/2 Oz.?

[senile1]

How  do the NRX854c and the GLX MBR844c compare with each other?

 

The NRX is a bit more sensitive but you can't go wrong with either rod.  My experience has been that rod sensitivity differences at the GLX price level and above is minimal.

Megabass orochi xx emtf. It's a little hvy for 1/4 oz jigs, for 1/4, the flat side special would probably be ideal.

I would have a custom built rod by otter rods on a st croix sc5 or NFC HM blank.  Building a rod to do exactly what you want it to do will bring about the best results.  Otherwise your just trying to find a fit for the application out of the mass produced rod lineup.

Anything G. Loomis, especially the NRX models if they have one you favor.

G.Looomis GLX MBR844C or Lamiglas XL 844 custom.

for me, that's 2 different rods. 

What would the two different rods be?

I have 2 GLX MBR 844c They are WONDERFUL rods. I was wondering how a NRX rod (893/894 / 854/853) would  compare and which one might handle the 1/4 and 1/2 oz. jig the best? or like iabass8 reply do i just buy two rods.

I use a NRX 853 for those weights,although a 1/2 oz is in the upper end of it's range I've never had a issue with it.. I also like the 803 around docks.
