Just watched this video again and the information you guys provided was super helpful and informative. I think this is a topic that you could keep doing that would provide excellent content for us non pro anglers to consume. It would be awesome to watch a you guys compare the new version of the NRX to the prior generation, or the new Steez compared to the prior Steez, or the new version of the Expride to the prior generation Expride, to help highlight/illustrate how the new version and the prior version are alike and how they are different. Knowing and understanding what the companies change when they do a new release, if anything, is really helpful to consumers. As you eluded to below, it sounds like the old 872s and the new 872s are different animals, and it would be helpful to know how / what. Really appreciate you guys and the content you make and share.

FYI the NRX+ 872s is 3.36oz and the Windbuster is 3.68oz. I have both and have weighed them obviously. Griff is unfortunately wrong about the P5 being lighter. To be fair that's pretty much splitting hairs.
@thehookuptackle_usa

Griff’s not wrong. He’s giving his personal feeling on the rod. Your personal opinion can’t be wrong 🤦 The NRX+ definitely has a heavier feel in hand - whether technically it is or isn’t. Now, to be fair it also had a Stella on it, which is a full ounce heavier than an exist. But the rods have a completely different feel - no matter what the actual ounces are. I’m glad you weighed them. You probably balanced them on your finger too.

Love everything about it -except it has zero load and casting timing has to be perfect otherwise it’s getting slammed into the water about 10 yards away. And this is the medium/fast. It’s also suspiciously rated for 1/8 a 3/8. It’s double that. More like 1/4 - 3/4. Haven’t found a lot of reviews for the 842s except for some obvious sponsors. Would like to see this one reviewed.

Talking about fishing rod but not actually showing pictures bend profile measurement is like trying to describe taste and smell.

I'll take the nrx cause its warranty is just better. Megabass got a wacked warranty. The megabass probably feels "lighter" because of the balance. The way the nrx blank is design, the mass is concentrated just above the reel seat and always feel a little tip heavy even though the rod is super light. I can say if you put the exist on the nrx, it'll feel very tip heavy.

Is the Windbuster superior to the Landsat for bottom contact?

So for 1/4 oz drop shot you probably suggest the wind buster then?

Man the Windbuster is an outstanding rod! You would absolutely NOT be disappointed mate.

Either will work. I don't love the wind buster for dropshot, but in a pinch either would work. I like a little softer tip on dropshot rods personally.

When you're saying 3000 size reel in regards of Shimano, you are talking about 3000mhg or c3000? Because c3000 is a deeper spool 2500, but 3000mhg is a 4000 size body with 2500 size spool.

What’s your recommendation on a shaky head rod?

If you're throwing 1/4-3/8oz heads - either of these rods would be dope. I'd choose the NRX if that was the only thing I was going to do with it.

The biggest difference is warranty. Megabass has only 3 years warranty
