Nice review Gramps. Ive been extremely pleased with everything Ive got from the ALF used section!
Yeah, can find some real goodies if you keep an eye out
Gramps- This is EXACTLY the video I was looking for. I'm looking to get into the NRX+/Metaniium stratosphere and your review and opinions were perfect. Thanks for the advice and your service to our country! See you on the next DEBO live!
Glad you enjoyed. My first adventures into higher end gear.
Great review brother
Nice review!
Great review brother. Makes me want to invest in a couple high end rods for the 2023 season🎣🎣🎣🎣
I'm gonna need another job, thanks for the information
I love the line. I have the glx, nrx, and conquest line. To this day, the nrx is topps for me.
I just wish they would bring back the 6’8” heavy in their lineups. So depressing that its gone.
Gramps that was a great review. I recently got the NRX+ 873c crr and the 852c…amazing rods. You get what you pay for. Looking forward to your review of the IMX Pro bjr. I love the 906 and 968 cbr…worth checking out if you like to crank
JT-You make those rods look good. I can’t wait for the next review.
Be well my friend
Thanks, you too!
I bought that same 7”1 heavy nrx plus from american legacy Black Friday sale. Was used but said mint. Can tell it was never fished. Was $200 off normal price so I snagged it as my first high high end rod. Have loved it so far.
That’s the problem with higher end gear , it makes it hard to go back and use the budget stuff !!
They should offer the 873 w/ full cork. Maybe an ALF exclusive!
Hello, Loved the video and was wondering which rod would you prefer for throwing 1/2 ounce Carolina rigs? I usually just throw 1/2 ounce and was wondering if the 873c was the correct choice.
rated for 1/4 to 3/4ths. I like to use the lightest tungsten I can get away with and can still feel everything on the bottom. Love this rod for finesse jigs
Great review!
I started out with a 854c just to try the nrx out. Like you I was always a middle of the road type guy too but.....
Now I have the 852,803,853,854,873,894 casting and 821nrr and 872 spinning nrx. Also a glx spinning and a gl2 Swim bait casting rod. I went overboard replacing my arsenal, lol. I use dobyns, falcon and others for moving bait lures because I don't see a need for that sensitive of a rod for those. I do mostly have middle of the road reels though except for one alderbaren. I think I prefer daiwa to Shimanos though. Really wanting to try the zillion. Still like my lews too.
803 vs 853 which one do you Like more?
@@tmwhh ,I haven't had the 853 long and haven't got a chance to use it yet but I think I'll like the added length more. I use the 803 mainly for finesse jigs in tight quarters.
Once you go down the nrx rabbit hole you can’t go back 😂 I have a question, how do you like your 852C and what do you prefer to use that rod for?
@@nswanson27 , haven't used it a ton yet but so far for shakey heads and neko rigs
I get that same thing on my thumb from my SLX XT......Daiwa SV TWS doesn't have that issue..
it's funny how some reels fit like a glove and others that irritate our hands, across different brands
I like American legacy alot I have mostly ordered online from them the last 4 years I live in Kentucky I actually caught my pb largemouth on a reel I got from them weighed a little over 10 lps they definitely have the best deal in fluorocarbon with the price of sunline assassin they offer
Great info Gramps 👍 unfortunately I've had to face facts due to arthritis and carpal my ability to take advantage of sensitivity are is over 😢 but I love my zodias and the MGL's are awesome so any advice on how to maximize my fishing between dead sticking would be great thanks for everything ✊✌️🎣💙#FamDamily
That would be some great content for Jeremy to make, having one arm that's only 20%.
Do you have any experience with the nrx+ 803s JWr? What do you think about them?
So this year, I'm planning on to ned (fitness) fish on a spinning setup. Do you think I should get an NRX+, poison adrena, or an expide rod?
I think the Expride B or Zodias would be perfect. I have some Shimano rod combos reviews coming up next, but I am going to start the season with the Zodias for finesse. th-cam.com/video/QKkYMNqz2qo/w-d-xo.html
Great review, do you like the metanium or the zillion more this year
Zillion 100%, my next best fav is the Curado MGL 150
@@FishinWithGramps I just ordered a zillion and a loomis 873c cr from American legacy . Thanks for the feedback I would have never ordered such high end without feeling them in hand first without your input on them. No stores around me carry those so your a life saver
Where at is American Legacy located at? I live in Fort Wayne, IN and we really do not have any good local shops around really stocked with anything worth buying if you are looking to expand to anything than just the basic low end price point.
Evansville
I’ve made THOUSANDS of dollars wit that NRX873CRR as a co angler, actually have 2 of em. Paired with the Metanium 2020, doesn’t get much better
Very nice return of investment! I look forward to catching more bigs on it!
Hello I am trying to decide to see if I should get the new daiwa steez bc2 or the nrx+ 873c crr? Which is better overall thanks.
Have had both, still have the NRX+. You will love either one, but I can't give mine up.
@FishinWithGRAMPS Thanks Gramp i appreciate it.
Does your code no longer work with American Legacy ?? Can’t use it with anything I’ve tried in like the last month
There are some brands they can't discount online, due to price locks. If you call and mention Gramps, they can most likely make you a deal.
But I will get my hands on a nrx+ one day
Does American legacy buy used rods? Say if I have some sitting around I don’t use but they are in excellent shape
yup, I've used their trade-in program several times towards new gear
@@FishinWithGramps what if you live out of state? Can I ship multiple rods to them and use it as credit for soem new gear?
@@FishinWithGramps I wanna get into some higher in Gloomis I have some Megabass rods exprides and others that don’t have a scratch
Find the American Legacy Facebook group, they will hook you up
I keep doing bad things by buying more Dobnys ,713kd sp , 745 kd , 734 fr 704mr , 765kd flip. Kaden rods for fast rods they have such a tip , 745 skips 1/2 jigs like I was born doing it and the 713 sp kd can filp 4lb no issues but still soft enough to throw yum dingers 5’..
oh I feel you there, LOVE me some Dobyns.
I own several st.croix legand extremes so spending 600+ on a rod is not a problem. I own many older gloomis rods and they are way better than the shimano mass produced loomis rods of today. I started buying edge rods. And they are great. If you want an actual g loomis rod buy an edge
I've seen those, maybe ALFC will carry some day.
Do g loomis get in salt water fishing? Like big game fish
couldn't tell ya, I only fresh water fish
Im getting a shimano 150 mgl… keep hearing about it
Love them!
How does the power compare between 873 and 854
That's a question for @punchfishing , I'm a Loomis noob
One thing we all can admit we all have an addiction to fishing gear and that is one reason I haven’t bought a high end rod my most expensive is $200 and it’s a nice rod but I know if I go any hire I will be divorced and prolly living on the streets lol
hehe, gotta keep the mama's happy!
I liked to know what those rods cost? Give us an idea
They are very expensive, over $600
Nothing beats a dobyns . Not the lightest but I take a well balanced rod any day!
I have a variety of Dobyns, but there is no comparison
@@FishinWithGramps for the huge price difference I don't notice a huge difference from dobyns higher end to nrx besides the weight of the blank
I have a champion extreme and multiple nrx+ rods, the weight and sensitivity of the nrx was mind blowing compared to my dobyns. Both incredible rods and love my dobyns, but he’s right.. there is no comparison. You really do get what you pay for.
I can tell, especially when throwing a jig with my arthritis filled shoulders for ten hours a day. I am finally to the point in my life where I will spend some money across Dobyns, Shimano and Loomis to make fishing just that much better. Megabass coming up soon, lol
@@FishinWithGramps when you fish a ton the weight of the nrx for a fact does help fatigue on those long days, plus how stupid sensitive they are makes it just that much more fun to fish! Lol. I’ve heard great things about the Megabass Destroyer P5
What did you keep?
heh, that video is due soon, isn't it?
These rods are still my go-to, man…NRX and Conquest for all things jig and plastic. I still prefer the st croix 68mxf legend x for flukes and 68mxf victory for jerkbaits, etc. The NRX just feels like overkill for reaction baits. I’ll tell you this much…anyone who doesn’t wanna drop $500 for an NRX, the St Croix Victory line is PHENOMENAL. They compete with my NRXs all day in terms of weight, balance and comfort. They’re not as sensitive but who cares…for $200, they’re the best value I’ve found on the market, personally. My brother sees no need to upgrade his and he often fishes with my conquests, etc. when we’re out on the boat. They’re really, really good.
didn't care much for the Victory line, didn't balance well for me. I know many who really enjoy them tho
Straydic 😂😂😂😂
you can just send that on over to me, thanks alot.
For $600 and GLoomis put on cheap guides recoil real GLoomis that turns me away from them dobyns Xtasy has torztie guides it’s just as good as the nrx+ for $550 but you can buy them on sale for $450
Guides are accessories, the blank makes the difference
I wouldn't buy ANYTHING associated with Shimano!
Everyone has their own favorites
@@FishinWithGramps I just like buying rods, whose manufacturers stand behind their warranties!
That I agree with!
Dobyns ftw!
@@jimt5683 I recommend Dobyns all the time, not sure of your point.
get to the point of your title advertise later. thumbs down
If they let me use the gear I am testing to give unbiased options, I will absolutely NOT "advertise later". Move along.
Do you have a Facebook or Instagram profile as well? This stuff is awesome
I'm nothing special. Instagram is fishin_with_gramps
