Dobyns upgrade event

[ChitownLonghorn]

Got my hands on my first Dobyns rod yesterday and have to say that I am pretty impressed. The Hook Up Tackle is offering a month long upgrade event where you can trade in any of your Duckett, Shimano, St. Croix, Powell, G.Loomis, or Dobyns rods for 60-80% of their original retail value towards the purchase of a new Dobyns. I have some Shimano Crucials that I have used and abused over the years that I will be sendiing in to take advantage, basically getting a new Champion series rod for around $130 bucks, which is hard to beat.

I need to get me a couple trophy ass crankin rods.

Yeah, that 804CB is the ultimate trophy cranking rod.

Or you can have Kyle build you one, I got to chuck his new one recently and it is the tigglebitties.

Yea man Kyle built me an 8' cranker on a castaway blank, micro spiral mounted guides and the thing is awesome and beautiful... I need a bad ass worm rod, what do you guys suggest?? I'm gonna drop some change here pretty quick..

Dez, I would look at Power Tackle and Dobyns, both Texas companies and they make incredible rods. I currently use a Veritas for my t-rigs, but if I had the coin, I would be exploring those options.

Thanks man I have never had a PowerTackle rod in hand, who's got em on the shelf?? Cabelas maybe??

[ChitownLonghorn]

Cabela's does not, but Jacky normally does. Andy has a bunch, and I think Honcho has a worm rod of theirs that he might let you fondle.

I will investigate . Been saying I'm gonna upgrade for a while but haven't had my hands on the good stuff yet.. I just don't get to fish much anymore damnit! I will ask Craig to show me his rod...

Check out the Falcon Cara rods. These are what I use. They are light weight and very sensitive rods and have a rod for almost every technique. The Finesse Jig rod (CC-5-1610 S) makes a good worm rod. They carry them at Bass Pro, Cabelas and have a few at Academy. Matter of fact, Academy has a few Caras marked down to $104 right now.
