Any info on new Loomis NRX rods?
- NRX 895C JWR or GLX 896C FPR
So your saying I can use the 916C as my swimbait rod also? If so it looks like I'm going to want at least 4 of them. Do u have any of the 6'8" rods for tight work or spinnerbaits, topwater and jerkbaits? How do u walk a hollow body frog on a 7'5" rod? What brand crankbait rods do u use? I was gonna buy the GLX's.- NRX 895C JWR or GLX 896C FPR
This helped me immensely, I just purchased the NRX 895C but have to go pick it up. So your saying u have an 895C and use it for pitching and it works great but wanted also wanted a heavier pitching rod and ended up w the 916C? I am ordering the 916C as I need an alabama rig rod. So the GLX 896C felt like a broom handle huh lol. You said u wanted a F not an XF tip yet on the Loomis site it has the GLX FPR rods listed as a F tip? I was also interested in buying the GLX 953C FPR for the length and use for lighter pitching and C-rigs, do u have any experience w this rod?- Any info on new Loomis NRX rods?
Cool so u do own both, can u tell a difference in sensitivity? Thanks- NRX 895C JWR or GLX 896C FPR
Anyone that's fishing these rods, was gonna use the NRX 895C for a flipping pitching rod. But it's only rated up to 1oz. The GLX which is actually a flipping rod is rated up to 1 1/2oz. Wanted the NRX as I would be able to feel a jig bite better as its more sensitive. But I'm worried that it may be too lite being rated for 1oz. Can anyone give me any suggestions or thoughts to this. Thanks- GLX 847 or 957 for 2oz. baits? NRX 916C too stiff for swimbaits?
I'm a loomis guy and I'm gonna be picking up some GLX crankbait rods. There heavy rod is rated for 1 3/8oz. I don't know if that will handle 2oz. baits like the 10xd ect? I'm also picking up a 916C UMB rod, does anyone know if there too stiff to be used as a swimbait rod? Thanks- Any info on new Loomis NRX rods?
For its aesthetics or do u think its more sensitive? Have u owned a green one? I can't believe they sell more blue, pretty sure the majority on here prefers the green also. I had 2 blue and recently sold them and I'm about to purchase a dozen green ones. I really hope the blue ones aren't more sensitive, I find it hard to believe someone could actually tell the difference.- Any info on new Loomis NRX rods?
As we all know they discontinued what I thought was a nice rod, the green ones. I hate the blue and know I'm not alone and don't believe for a second that there not coming out with a different color or different NRX all together. Has anyone heard anything in regards to this?- Question for Costa Owners
No one's face is perfectly symmetrical. And most people's ears are higher or lower than one another, hence the reason you get your glasses fitted to your face. Normal thin wired glasses you can bend the arms and adjust the nose piece to fit them to your face. With glasses such as the ones you purchased can only be fitted by heating them up and adjusting them to fit. I've had several Costas with frames like that and they sat crooked on my face and we're very uncomfortable so I returned them. Frames like that look cool but unless your ears pretty close to parallel they are gonna look crooked and not be comfortable. I also come to learn that whenever I buy glasses with glass lenses they make them too heavy and after hrs of wearing them they too become bothersome on my nose bridge. My frames also sat the same way on a table one arm higher than the other. Think they need to be like that to fold. So that's my .02 worth, currently wearing Maui Jims and like them very much but they are glass lens and get too heavy.- LC 1.5 & 2.5
I looked into it more, the LC RC baits on ebay that is. And they get those prices for them because the are discontinued colors and baits obviously. A lot of the copper colors that RC himself likes more than other colors.- LC 1.5 & 2.5
Is there a difference between the discontinued LC RC 1.5 2.5 ect and the current 1.5 2.5 ect? I see the RC ones are selling for 30 a pc. and more on ebay. Guess they are discontinued colors.- Swimbait (4-5 inches) rigged weedless...
Awesome thanks!- Swimbait (4-5 inches) rigged weedless...
Do u buy these in bulk directly from mister twister or somewhere else?- New Year - New Gear
So far about $1200 worth of tackle. Loomis NRX green 895, 893, 853 Loomis GLX 802 Pre-ordered 4 2016 Shimano Mentaniums Placing a huge order of rods once my income tax check comes, but I'm starting off from only 2 rods and reels before I got these NRX and GLX rods.- Fishing Tackle at a Boat Dealership
Don't forget the Roland Martin Helicopter lure, yea buddy! Caught more fish on that bait then any other. Constantly searching ebay to keep me in stocked on them. Truth is its the only bait I need on the boat anymore. I have the most success fishing it around shear cliffs and letting it helicopter down weightless in 80 to 120ft of water, and hold on. The strikes are arm breaking. We also use it offshore trolling for tuna on one of those green sticks. Oh almost forgot it works great on Alabama rigs also.- Co-Angler Tackle Bag that fits back deck storage compartment
Yea but that won't fit in a lot of these small back compartments he's talking about will it? My bass pro 360 extreme doesn't fit in all of them and I have different 3600's in mine.- Squarebills
Seems like more guys are fishin the 1.2 over the 1.5. I fish Fork in Tx and was gonna go with the 1.5. Any thoughts, have u fished the 1.5? Have those in my cart! Ok yes WEC, been on the above site. Yes have read nothing but good things about these baits. Definitely grabbin some of them.- Squarebills
I have at least 8 of the 1.0 never fished them and not sure why I bought em lol. And now that I live in Tx and live by Fork I'm not sure I ever will. What setup do you throw them on? Didn't even know zoom made hardbaits?- Owner Hyper Welded Snaps
What sz. or sizes should I order to use with my crankbaits? 1.5 2.5 sz. cranks and lipless baits up to 3/4oz. I think these owners are the ones to go with right?- Owner Hyper Wire Split Rings
Never bought any, what sz. or sizes should I order for my crankbaits like SK 1.5 2.5 LC 1.5 ect. Thanks- Squarebills
Anyone fish or tried the LC KJ FLAT SIDED SB? It's suppose to excel in cold and pressured waters with its tighter wobble?- Squarebills
