This rod will blow you away! The 3wt is sensitive enough to run micro leaders and super light bugs and not break your line, but versatile enough to toss heavier jig streamers. I pair this with the Max II reel with floating line so that I can also quickly switch over to cast dries and dry dropper rigs. It looks great, feels great, and fishes like a dream!
ultra sensitive, light, and super responsive. intermediate skill level. excellent finish. A+
good balance and hypersensitive.
Fished the NX 3 on the Orange River for Yellowfish here is South Africa and again Maxxon didn't disappoint! Really good sensitivity and good weight (arm and shoulder wasnt completely destroyed after 4 days fishing) About 30 fish a day average... only thing that might need to be looked at is a stiffer butt section - rod was lacking a bit of backbone for the size fish I was catching...
Like the XX rods, these Maxxon Rods are as good (and in my opinion) as if not better than any of the higher priced rods in the same category.
Great rod, very sensitive, amazing action
Rod itself is very nice. I had a problem with the reel seat getting the reel in and aligned with the guides.
