pussiwillow Posted May 7, 2011 Posted May 7, 2011 well i finally decided on a nice casting rod, i had a toss up between kistler mag or helium, powell endurance, and dobyns savvy, well i chose the dobyns savvy due to it being so popular and rave reviews on it, it just seemed like a better choice. i was unable to handle any of the rods prior to purchase but i hope i made the right choice, i ordered the 704 casting rod heavy fast for jigs and texas rigs and senko's. im excited to get it, this is my first nice rod, all my others were 50 - 60 dollar pflueger president casting rods, which i still use and love but not sensitive enough for bottom contact baits for me.

Flywatersmallie Posted May 7, 2011 Posted May 7, 2011 That is a great all purpose rod. I have the same model, also the same model in the Champion series. You'll be pleased with the upgrade to be sure! Quote
pussiwillow Posted May 10, 2011 Author Posted May 10, 2011 i got my rod today and all i can say is wow! this thing is nice, it looks like it was built to order its so nice. i cant wait til i get a chance to give it some nice usage, but i messed with it a bit to test sensitivity and i cant say enough how impressed i am about this rod. even better *** is the best, i ordered my rod friday at 1:30 pm i recieved my rod today monday. hows that for free shipping... great company! this will be used for jigs and plastics, should i use braid? i heard braid increases sensitivity... and is it hard on guides?

To answer your two questions. Yes and no. Quote
Super User KYntucky Warmouth Posted May 10, 2011 Super User Posted May 10, 2011 The 704 is a pretty good rod, it's pretty versatile. You should love it. Quote
