Surely someone has posted about this already, but I couldn't find anything in the search bar. 

Loomis announced the new line of GLX rods a few weeks ago, what are your thoughts?

If they are more sensitive than the old GLX and 20% lighter, doesn't that put them on par with the NRX?? The NRX hasn't been updated for several years, so I wonder how these new GLX will compare... One reason why I'm asking is because I'm going to want a new medium heavy rod this year because my current one is only 6'6" and that's just not long enough for a lot of situations... I might step all the way up to a 7'5" MH, and if the GLX is about as good as the "old" NRX than I don't know why I'd spend the extra money...

Your turn.

I don't know how anyone can answer your question on how the new GLX will compare to other rods. The rods have not been released yet so unless you have a field tester for Loomis on here that has gotten his hands on a prototype rod it would be hard to say for sure.

Personally, I think I am going to try a full grip GLX 843 MBR. I have thought about getting the NRX version but I will likely hold out for a Rep Sample GLX when they come out.

Any pix floating around?
