G Loomis Jwr 3 Or 4 Power?????

I use 3/4oz jigs on my 893c and haven't felt like it was overloading so I would start there. I use it for fishing jigs in slightly deeper; its perfect and one of my most used rods.

Simple!

Just get the 893 and fish it a couple of times to see if you like it. If not it will sell in a jiffy on the forum.

I have the IMX 893 AND the NRX 893. I find the IMX is a little more stout.

Funny how opinions can differ person to person. A 3/4 jig + trailer feels overpowered to me on my 893.

That's interesting. I'll mostly use smaller trailers like chunks and cut down stuff and it never feels like I'm damaging the rod. I think they underrated the NRX and GLX for warranty purposes. One of the reasons I bought the 893 is Mark Zona said he uses it in a Bassresource video. In that same video he says he uses 1oz jigs on it but I never use 1oz jigs on it.

Final verdict: I picked up a nrx 853c off the boards here. A few days later found a demo 873crr. So think I'm covered jig and worm wise up to 3/4. Anything above I'll use my H flipping Rod.
