Thinking of purchasing a spinning rod. I have two brands in mine The G Loomis NRX 872 S or the Kistler Z Bone. I heard the Z Bones are pretty stiff. Anyone have both and how they compare?
Later, Daman

872 and 822syr are my favorite followed up by the 852

I have no experience with the Kistler but can tell you the 872 NRX is the best all purpose spinning rod I've ever put my hands on
What are you looking to do with it? Another legendary, high end spinning rod that gets rave reviews is the Daiwa Steez AGS 76MML... amazing rod.

NRX
Before you buy check out Cashion rods. I wish I would have before I bought some of my rods I have.

what is the purpose using it for as i own a couple of each nrx and zbone
Where are the BIG ones? When are we going?
LOOKING for a Great deal on a Slightly used 20-21' Boat.
My NRX 872 is a very versatile rod, love it!
Sorry for just getting back, family medical problems. Anyway the rod will mostly be used as a walleye rod. Casting a jig with plastics or Rippn Raps.
Thanks for getting back guys!
I'd suggest an HMG, but think I am a little under budget.
Hope your family is well now.
Tfo has a line of walleye rods that look nice. My next rod purchase will be one of these. Always liked a shorter rod for walleye fishing, got a few 6 ft spinning rods, nearly 30 years old, that I still break out for marble eyes.

Thanks guys, I think I'll be looking for a NRX 872S.
Bad news on the medical, my sister passed.
Not what I was expecting when I opened this thread. Very sorry for your loss.
Thank you
I’d take a look at the new p5 wind buster
it’s an amazing rod
Easily one of my favorite spinning rods
