BasshunterJGH Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 What is your favorite Dobyns Champion Extreme for 3/4 ounce football jigs? Quote
DTack Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 I personally use a 744dx. 745dx seems to be the more popular choice. I just finished a 2 day tournament catching 25-30 fish a day on a 3/4 oz jig on the 744dx, my favorite rod to have a football jig on. I mainly throw 3/8 and 3/4, they both go on that rod. Let me know if you have concerns. 1 Quote

Super User BrianinMD Posted February 5, 2015 Super User Posted February 5, 2015 I am on the side of the 745, love mine paired with a Chronarch 200E7. Quote
Grantman83 Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Dxml 784c is my football jig Rod almost exclusively... Quote
DTack Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 I was thinking the 745 or 795, but if the 744 works for you, I'll check it out. Thanks! In my opinion the 795dx would overpower things pretty badly. If you wanted something longer with more power the 765dx would be a little better but in my opinion still a bit too much power. The 745dx is probably the most popular for this size football jig. 784dx is also a wildly popular rod for the football jigs but just isn't my personal favorite for the jig. Actually the 744dx was the first Dobyns I ever purchased and completely hooked me on them. Happy to discuss anymore concerns you may have! Quote

I'm leaning towards the 745, although I'd probably like just a little more length for deep water fishing. That's why I suggested the 795, but it doesn't sound ideal. I think a 785ml would be perfect! Wish dobyns would make one. Quote
BasshunterJGH Posted February 5, 2015 Author Posted February 5, 2015 Also wish they would come out with that zayta!!! Heard there would be a 755, might be what I'm looking for. I've been hearing about them for a couple years now. But that's for another thread. Quote
DTack Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 might as well add the DX 765 Flip into the mix great thanks!

Wish dobyns would make one. The 765dx MAY possibly work really... I would think it may be just a bit too stiff unless you mainly throw the jig in 30+ feet of water. Quote

I've heard so much great stuff about it. Btw I'll be fishing in 20-40 fow. Quote
