Adrift Posted January 20, 2024 Posted January 20, 2024 My current jig skipping rod doesn't have a soft enough tip so I'm thinking of replacing it. Anybody use the GLX 804c for skipping? I'm having a hard time finding any info on this rod. Thanks 1 Quote
Super User ATA Posted January 20, 2024 Super User Posted January 20, 2024 I dont have GLX but I have conquest 804C MBR and I use it for so many thing(Almost anything in weight range), Jigs, Weighted T-Rig and ETC... The tip is very good for sniping but I personally was luckier by using my 6'10" Shaula rod with scorpion 151 DC reel. I did ask help from pros here and I practically cast about 2000 times under dock and I got nest about 500 times, The issue is you as angler and if you master it, I believe you can do it with any rod including GLX 804C.

softwateronly Posted January 20, 2024 Posted January 20, 2024 @Adrift I think any 4 power mbr would be a great rod for skipping. I feel like that tip allows one to do most anything. I still suck at skipping, but this was super helpful for my beginnings.... scott 1 Quote
waymont Posted January 21, 2024 Posted January 21, 2024 A GLX 844 mbr is a beautiful 1/2oz jig skipping rod. I prefer the 7’ length. 1 Quote
freelancer27 Posted January 22, 2024 Posted January 22, 2024 I had used the NRX 804c with great success for skipping activities from the kayak! If the GLX shares the same rod characteristics, I would definitely recommend it! 1 Quote
