G Loomis NRX+ Rod Review! Baitcasting And Spinning!

This was LONG overdue. Both my Conquest and my SC Legend X rods feel nicer than my old NRX stuff. The old NRX line had two things...ultimate lightness and ultimate liveliness. Nothing amplifies the “donk” of a strike quite the same way. That being said....their handles are pretty “meh”, they feel quite breakable (I’ve never actually broken one...but it’s a confidence thing) and they just don’t cast quite as accurately as certain newer models. Again, my conquest feels like it can pinpoint a small jig at 30 yards where my NRX “gets it over there”. I’m really excited about this refresh. They needed to bring the NRX up to date with the Conquest line.

Fake gloomis... Shimano blank and disappointing components. No Torzite guides on a $650 rod??
I would not spend that much money on that rod. Much better choices with better components. Daiwa steez ags, St Croix extreme 2020, meggabass destroyer p5. To name a few. And that teal blue? Yuk... what a whimpy color. I'm gonna paint my muscle car that color and see how many likes I get. 😆

Hook sets are free !

Does the spiral X change the tip action on the NRX+ or does it feel the same as the original NRX?

Great video thx. What is the difference between the conquest and the new NRX? Granted moved the hook keeper but are the guides the same. Especially now that the NRX has Spiral X those two Rods seem very similar

Note, not all models have bait keeper in that new area. That's only on the split butt. On the 7 ft med heavy, the bait keeper is still on the rod above reel

i got lucky last year & got a great deal on a G Loomis rod "used" locally ... it turned out actually not to be used at all, but was brand new w/the tags/stickers, but it was an older worm rod model ... i didn't want to believe the hype - i'd heard of G Loomis, but knew their rods were expensive (for my fishing budget anyway) ... well, 1 year later, i must honestly admit -- it is, hands down, my favorite rod in my collection ... as my lower-end/budget rods break, i'll be replacing them with G Loomis ... i have not been as impressed w/the Dobyns Fury i got last year ...

What do you guys throw on the 853c jwr? I just bought one. And what’s your favorite smallmouth bank fishing nrx?

What do you guys think of the Kaden series rods?

Does it still have the oversize tip guide?

While probably excellent rods I feel they actually sell them too hard with all superlatives... but then I'm not a 600 USD rod guy.

Do you really need that sensitivity for something else than bottom contact/DS? And then statistically, how many more bites would you really detect, say 1-2/100 compared to a 250-300USD rod?

NRX + MBR VS Conquest MBR, which one should i buy??

You know its gonna be a fire video when you hear tim little and matt allen

I use mojobass baitcasters amd e6x spinning but i might have to get me a new nrx+ because if yall

How do you like the ned rig rod?

Maybe it should be named g.loomis conquest -

Love channel, but shocked when do rod reviews never try megabass levante. Sic rods for money and could please high end guys and low end guys

Wish they ditch the baby blue stripe

The 895 is good jog rod for 1/2?

I hope i am correct...but Kistler Zbone already was using Spiral X and SIC guides for years. MEGABASS is using that technology too in the P5 series, and Daiwa Steez uses compile x with AGS guides....NRX IS CATCHING UP TO THEM😉♥️ LOVE YOU GUYS!!! Great videos

For 853c what lures you use for that rod??

Hello. I search a all around spinning rod. The 853C JWR (7'1" Medium Heavy) is only 3/8 OZ.
It's for fishing with jearkbait like realis 130 and soft lures with 0,35 OZ TP.
Can you advise me on a rod.
853C is to light for me?
Excuse for my English, I'm French and I learn speaking with you're video.
Continue, I Love your videos.
Merci d'avance, bonjour de France

Why didn't they put the cool logo of the bone fish? That means everything to me 🤨🤣😭

Guys, looking for jig flipping pitching rod and Im torn between the NRX+ 904C MBR and 894C JWR. Which would you pick!

Do you guys seal the cork??

The new Steez lineup >

Do NRX+ rods come with a rod sleeve?

Bring on the 914 Ledge rod!

Really interested in the NRX+ 844C MBR. How versatile is this rod really and what techniques is it best used for? What reel would you pair it up with ? Thanks for your information.

@Tacticalbassin I’m new to bass fishing. What Nrx+would you recommend for Ca delta punching from a kayak. I know you guys fished the delta many years. Thank You best regards Jeremy LeonGuerrero

selling a rod without putting the rod weight..................ZzzZzzzzZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz :[

Just a rod still catch fishes like a $100 rod.

I really never spent over $200 on a rod just because I am really hard with my gear, I think that’s always going to be the issue but I may get a tricked out Rod and real soon with a G Loomis and the matanium reel.

These with a lews custom slp speed spool is A1!

I just had to chime in on this video. I have a handfull of NRX rods. I find them to be the best of the best.
I just picked up an NRX + 873. I couldn’t see how an NRX could get better but the new + series is a big step up. Lighter, stronger and slightly more sensitive. Problem now is I want to up grade the rest of my rods. 😮

Just guessing here but the Shimano curado probably won't get its own review. Come on guys tour pros don't even throw them. I know its mostly a sponsor thing but few pros used those rods to get there either.
You guys do get a little elitist at times. The bass tournaments I fish in 1 in a 100 even own a Loomis rod and its the guy it doesn't help anyway..

ok...my head is going to explode...which combination? G Loomis NRX+ 854c JWR HF with Shimano Metanium DC OR G Loomis NRX+ 853c JWR MH with Curado DC 200? Careful..don't complicate further with other recommendations (ex: conquest)

Are these nrx rods as good as the high end Japanese rods? I have a steez skyray and can’t imagine anything more sensitive tbh. I do have an nrx coming Monday to try

Not worth it that is insane paying that kind of money it's not necessary with technology these days. You guys are wasting your money.

Came back to this video as I purchased my first NRX two seasons ago based on your repeated recommendations. You couldn't have been more correct. I use them for bottom contact fishing exclusively (not that I wouldn't love to have my casting rods be NRX as well, but the Expride series is just amazing and more budget friendly) and I simply can't explain how ridiculously sensitive these rods are.

I was skeptical to begin. But now I'm a complete believer. They simply help you feel bites that you would not have otherwise felt without the NRX series.

My next one is going to be the NRX+ Ned Rig rod - 821 NRR. I think I'll be done after that (yah right).

Because of Matt I have the whole conquest line spinning and casting, and I just got the next+ nrr and so exited to start to use it.
Thanks guys

I have the whole MBR and SJR conquest and what is unique about NRX+ you can have 901 and nrr which they both one power rods which you can find in conquest’s line up.

Anyone know how much the NRX Plus 821S NRR weighs? I can’t find the rod weight for this rod listed anywhere!

Nothing can convince me to buy a 600+ rod when my ducketts and saint croix rods are just as sensitive and light but for 500 dollars cheaper

What is the boat????

Do yall use the 854c jwr?

Hello! What is better for jigheads 5-12g and softbaits 4'' like Keitech etc. 852S JWR or 872JWR? thx

Hello,
I am a fishing enthusiast from China, and I prefer American fishing methods.
I would like to ask you a few questions. I currently have 4 fishing rods. I would like to ask you to help me look at the matching of fishing groups.
NRX+ 852 plays 3-inch WACKY SENKO
NRX+ 853 plays 4-inch SENKO.
NRX+ 854 Play obstacle JIG or football JIG
STEEZ AGS 72H Texas rig
I would like to ask you to help me see if the fishing group is suitable, thank you

Expride has High Power X. It doesn't have Spiral X. The Poison rods have Spiral X.
