I have the DSR820S GLX Dropshot rod and I HIGHLY! recommend it! For dropshotting and shakey heads, it's hard to beat. JMHO.

My buddy has 2 of these and I have used it plenty of times. Its a great rod...light and sensitive.

The BSR803 GLX would make for an amazing rod.

Yes it is! It is my rod for light plastics and worms. Very highly recommend it as a light lure, ultra sensitive, spinning rod with plenty of backbone.

BSR802 is my all-around spinning choice.  The DSR820 is just a little to whippy for me.  The SJR782 is nice also, but the BSR802 is just very crisp with the perfect amount of power.

I have one in the Mossyback Series that I bought on the flea market here.  Actually got a brand new one when the one I bought came broken, but that is beside the point.  When I first got it, I thought it was too light for what I wanted, but after fishing a time or two, I am quickly coming to love this rod.  Light enough to handle the lightest finesse stuff, but the butt comes into play nicely and with plenty of power.

I have a bsr 803 mossyback and it's my favorite rod I LOVE IT !

I can't imagine what the GLX must be like.

I have the 7'1" senko rod BSR852.  I love it so much I have a picture of it in my wallet.

Yep...802/852  Pick your poison.  The 2 power BSR's have won me over.  The 3 power rods are good, but they encroach on casting reel duty...those are powerful dudes!  The 2 power is more of a traditional spinning power, albeit with a super-ridiculous fast action that is notoriously BCR.
