Frog Rod Upgrade
thanks david, i have a buddy who owns both the rods and he said i could try them out. you were speaking about the 805 punch and i was lucky enough to get a sweet deal on a 805 flip/punch and i threw frogs on it today on a local pond and i liked it wayyy better than i thought.

Frog Rod Upgrade
i want to upgrade from my current frog rod which is a Diawa L&T frog rod. i really want something that is balanced so i can fish comfortable all day. i currently have 3 dobyns rods now and i am trying to slowly convert to all dobyns rods. i love the way they feel, and how balanced they are! the models i am looking at right now are: 1. dobyns champion 735c 2. dobyns champion 736c 3. dobyns champion extreme 745c 4. dobyns savvy 735c im stuck on the 2 champions cause they have different ratings. i will be fishing mostly golf course ponds that are mostly cheesed over and other lakes with the same structure. i tend to go to the delta quite a bit to. is the 736 a broom stick? i like a soft tip so i can walk the frog easy but still have that backbone to horse them out of the slop. if anyone has any of these rods or all of them and would like to give me your 2 cents please do! thanks!

Dobyns SS 704 or SS 734
my buddy owns the champion 734 and he loves it for jigs,texas rigs,small swimbaits,spinnerbaits, and buzzbaits. ive fished it a couple times and it does feel good. but i think youd be happy with the savvys. i like a longer rod for better hooksets,leverage,casting distance, ect. im 6'4" so tht plays a role in it.

rod grips
i know it works on split grips, but can it work on EVA foam handles? In that picture it looks like theres plastic under the rod grip? (like what comes on a new rod before you take the plastic wrapping off). I just dont wanna waste money on a couple if i cant use them on EVA foam. so yeah thanks for the replys though
