That’s the one thing that drives me crazy with the NRX it’s really hard to color match. I wish they had a matching reel Yep, that is a weird color of blue.

I have an eclectic mix i have acquired over the last 8-10 years. I go by a different rule... mix it up, gives you more opportunities for contingency money in sponsored events!!!
Only have 3 Abu Combos? Make six by splitting the rod and the reel!

I might have one Shimano Rod w/ Shimano Reel but the rest are Dobyn's Rods, G Loomis, and an old All Star.  All of my reels are Shimano, Daiwa, and Lew's IIRC. My wife has a St Croix rod with a Zebco Bullet and another rod with a Zebco 33 on it.

I would put a Zebco 33 on a G Loomis if I thought it would help me catch fish. Color and brand crossing never even crosses my mind. The fish dont care and neither do I.
