NRX+883C BJR

[Mr.Bass]

Looking for some feedback on the NRX+883C BJR. I fished this for a year now and have mixed feelings about this rod.
3/8oz seems to be just about the max range for this rod. It really loads up on the cast and requires almost an under hand roll cast for accuracy.
I have caught a bunch of fish with the rod just not what I was hoping for . I was hoping it would cover up to a 1/2oz.
In the past I had used the 853C for my chatter baits and was happy up to 1/2oz with it. Also my accuracy and load was much better.

With all that said, has anyone had some time under their belt with the 883 and what do you think. Also looking to see if anyone used this rod for anything else such as a spinnerbait rod or crank bait rod.

Let me know your thoughts before it goes to the classified section.
