  1. Looking to get a new jig rod, particularly the Dobyns Champion XP 744C. Would this rod be good for pitching around light to moderate vegetation and near timber or should I go up in an extra power? 3/8oz jigs with straight braid.
  2. Good to know, thank you. Good to know, thank you.
  3. Which rod would be best for Chatterbaits? Champion XP DC 735CB Glass or DC 736CB Glass. I Fish 3/8oz Chatterbaits 99 Percent of the time with monofilament, no braid. light to moderate vegetation.
  4. Looking at the Dobyns xtasy series for a Texas rig rod. I fish in water less than 10ft deep usually with sparse to dense cover. Anywhere from 1/4oz to 3/8oz bullet weight. Would this rod work good for a Texas rig or am I over paying for what I need.
  5. Did the first ever clean and lubrication of this reel the Lews speed spool series SS1HLA Baitcaster. This reel has never been cleaned in the 5-6 years I’ve owned it. I’m almost certain the Rulon drag washer is shot. Any idea where I can purchase a new one?
  6. I just started working on my own reels and looking to get the proper Screwdrivers/flatheads. Can someone recommend the proper types for Lews baitcasters.
  7. Is there really much of a difference between Fluro compared to copolymer? I plan to use it on my Chatterbait rod.
  8. I’m curious what would cause a bass population to be stunted?
  9. Bit of a slow bite but managed to catch this Bucket mouth. Caught her on a 3/8OZ Z Man Jackhammer Black n Blue Paired with a black n blue 4.3 Keitech.
  10. No the insert did not come out and nothing is loose, just the top part of the guide near the blank the epoxy separated from when it got bent, thanks for the help though.
  11. This is the guide I was concerned about, so I could just get a 2 part epoxy and put a little dab on the top of the guide?
  12. Dobyns Sierra micro series casting rod. The second guide from the reel and then another one a few guides up. And I didn’t notice them loose but I do a lot of bank fishing and track through the woods so could have got banged on a tree or something.
  13. I got two rods that have bent guides, was able to bend them back. What can I put on the guides to adhere to the rod any special glue?
  14. Does sanding remove U40 Cork sealer? If so what is a good grit to use?
  15. Which one do you think is better and why?
  16. Depends on where they get hooked and also the water clots small scrapes and cuts.
  17. Picked up a few new rods and reels saved a couple hundred dollars, pretty satisfied with my purchases.
  18. Are these the best rods Dobyns makes for the money?
  19. Is it okay to get U40 Cork Sealer on the metal rings on the fishing handle section?
  20. Can you run straight braid with micro guides?
  21. What do you like better and why?
  22. Will the Dobyns SSM 735 C work for jigs and top water Buzzbaits, or would the SSM 734 C work better?
  23. Which is better a medium rod or a light rod for ned rigs?
