got to call on the swimbait guys. I am wanting to enter the fray on chunking these and debating the rod I should choose.
I want to narrow it down to one rod for general purpose swimbaitin' but know deep down I will wind up with two rods down the rod, but for starters I only want one to make sure I like and enjoy tossing these big baits.
Rods I am debating:
Dobyns
795 ML or standard
806 ML or standard
Lowdown customs (production or custom)
Medium heavy
Heavy
here is what I think I might throw
1-1.5oz heads with 5-6" bighammers
6" bull shads mostly but MAYBE the 9" if I like throwing swimbaits
6-8" lunker punkers
blackdog shellcracker
7-9" slammers
Arigs with 1/4oz heads and 4-5" bighammer/grubs/roboshad
and maybe even big 1oz+ swimjigs
