So just a quick update. I received the NRX+ 883 BJR a couple days ago and took it out today. I didn't want to get my hopes too high, because it is listed as a fast rod, but one review I found of it had me interested. Well, I was definitely not let down. It's an amazing chatterbait rod, and probably spinnerbaits as well. It's very light, very comfortable to grip and cast. Roll casting a 3/8oz chatterbait with whatever trailer is no problem, and it'll handle a 1/2oz just fine. Very soft tip, solid backbone. I'm going out again tomorrow and will throw some chatterbaits around grass/weeds and see how it does there ripping it free, but I'm really impressed. Perfect action, plenty of power.

I like the Denali kovert spinner bait rod. For spinner baits. Chatter baits and rattle traps.
I've been using a St-Croix LTB swim jig finesse rod and its been working excellent.
I do however have my eye on the Megabass Diablo Spec-R and or a Conquest 903 MBR...
I do not like or care for full glass rods. I use the Falcon Swim Jig rod for mine.
Love my Favorite 7'4" Phat Glass. Medium heavy. Not full glass but composite. Enough give so the fish can get the hook good, but enough power to snap it out of weeds.
