The standard by which all light-duty saltwater fly rods and heavy-duty freshwater rods are measured will soon be changing. This smooth casting 8-weight will quickly become our number one 9-foot fly rod for fishing the flats as well as steelhead. It has the versatility and quickness of a much lighter rod, with more power than you can ever imagine. Tight loops and great range in such a lightweight package make this our top choice for bonefish, permit, snook, stripers, blues, salmon, steelhead, pike and any number of big fish. They just don't make a better rod than this... anywhere!

Beware of G. Loomis. Questionable Warranty Program
March 13, 2020
I purchased an NRX at the end of the season before the + was released. The middle rod ferrule wasn't manufactured correctly as the rod always came apart after ~2 hours of fishing. This happened from the first day of fishing. G Loomis didn't warranty the rod and wanted me to pay $100 for an NRX+ upgrade because they didn't have any more of the previous version. From my experience, G Loomis doesn't stand behind their products and doesn't treat their customers well. The rod might fish well, but does that matter if a company doesn't stand behind their $800 product? I'd recommend folks look elsewhere to ensure they don't get left holding the bag. Plenty of US rod manufacturers that treat customers well.
Cons
  • Company doesn't stand behind its products. Company tries to upcharge customers for warranty issues
