jprice Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 I just purchased a steez sv tw and I’m try to decide whether to use it on my fmj or nrx 853. The fmj will be for jigs, chatterbaits etc and the nrx will be for senkos and Shakey heads. I will be selling the reel off of whichever rod I chose so having a tough time deciding. Quote
mrpao Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 Why sell the reel? Unless you hate that other reel, just keep it for a spare. It never hurts to have an extra reel. Quote
jprice Posted February 20, 2020 Author Posted February 20, 2020 Yeah that’s true I may end up just keeping it. Quote
Corey T Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 I would put it on the NRX personally. Quote

Super User FishTank Posted February 21, 2020 Super User Posted February 21, 2020 I would say the NRX and keep the reel, it's awesome. Quote
jprice Posted February 21, 2020 Author Posted February 21, 2020 Thanks guys I’m putting on the nrx, I figured it might not balance as well on the fmj, it would just look pretty sweet with the gold accents. Quote
Super User fishwizzard Posted February 21, 2020 Super User Posted February 21, 2020 The Steez SVTW on a FMJ does result in a tip-heavy combo, but it also ends up feeling super light in hand, so it depends on what your priorities are. Quote
