Would like to hear how it performs, thinking of maybe the MC N-One series UL at 7'9 or 8ft for throwing micro jigs a long ways or nymphs with an indicator? Maybe pair it up with the new Daiwa Luvias 2000S using 3lb line.

I owned and used an Major Craft X-Ride for a couple of years...my nephew now has it as a rod for casting Zig Jigs for trout. When he fishes with others using that method he far out fishes them. They hit that jig on the fall after you pop it up...the rod gives him a big advantage with the sensitivity. It is a fantastic rod...and I think StanTheMan has one also. The N-One line will be similar but the X-ride has the better blank...titanium guide frames. Don't expect an 7' 5" or 8 foot ajing rod to take any pressure off your line though....pretty rigid rod even at that length. Now the longer mebaru rods will do that much better...they will be quite a bit softer. I still use an Blue Current TZ 8' 3" TZ long Cast for float fishing for trout....but I only use nylon line with it. I don't think you will be disappointed with the N-One but I would check to see if you can find some X-Rides somewhere.
