mnbassman23 Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Here is a video I shot from a few days ago on punching mats. These were smaller isolated mats around overhanging trees. For those of you new to punching I also did a short segment on tying up a punch rig. Not the best video on tying since it was outside and "in the moment" but I hope it helps out some. 3 Quote

Super User MarkH024 Posted July 24, 2014 Super User Posted July 24, 2014 Good fish brother! What rod are you using for punching these days? The Dobyns 766c is a beast of a rod, I thought I recall you asking me about it end of last year. It'd be nice if I could use it more lol. Hoping to hop up north this weekend if I can swing it. Quote
mnbassman23 Posted July 24, 2014 Author Posted July 24, 2014 Thanks guys! Mark I'm using a Powell max 7'10" 5 power rod. I was thinking about grabbing a dobyns 766 or 795 (still am) but am on the fence between that or a better swimbait rod. I should probably get both lol. 1 Quote
L a r r y Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 Nice vid.....I have a 766 flip and I can say that this rods sensitivity is PHENOMENAL.......Using it to punch you can feel everything that is on the other end, ever twig, branch, stem, root that you are punching through. I've not fished with any other rod for this technique, but I think it would be hard to beat Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted August 3, 2014 Super User Posted August 3, 2014 Good video. Some good stuff in there. Quote
