Swimbait rod for NH waters?
Thanks for the quick responses gentleman. I'm still stuck between the two, I'm leaning toward the 795 but my concern is that it won't handle the heavier lures that good even though it's rated to 5oz.

Swimbait rod for NH waters?
Hey everbody, this question is directed to new Hampshire swimbait fishermen. I'm getting into swimbaits and I'm looking for a swimbait specific rod, I keep going back and forth between dobyns fury 795 sb 1-5 oz and fury 806 sb 2-8 oz. I'm planning on using 6 inch line thru trout spro bbz 1 jr Huddleston 68. But not sure if the 8 inch Huddleston and and s waver 200 and other baits around 8 inch work good in NH. I know if I'm going to be using the lighter lures then the 795 would be good. But I'm looking for suggestions on the larger 8 inch baits also would work around these parts. If so then the 806 would be better. I mostly fish ponds and some lakes in the southern area of the state out of a Jon boat. I guess the question is, do 8 inch baits work in NH like they do in other states that have DD fish. What would you swimbait guys suggest, heavier rod and bigger baits or lighter rod and around 6 inch baits? Thanks in advance.

Bill Dance And Stick O Worm
For anyone who watched the episode of "Playing possum" did anyone notice what kind of hook he was using? looked like offset round bend to me, just curious because seems like most people use a EWG. Possibly offset round bends will work just as good maybe better for stick o worms. anyone's opinion will be appreciated, Thanks, Joe

Baitcasting Line Issues
I'm having some trouble with the mono on my bps pro qualifyer. I have it spooled with 14lb spider wire ultracast and the line seems to come off not Smooth and cause more backlash. Thought maybe had too much line so I took some off and that helped a little bit, but I didn't have this problem when I was using the same line in 12lb maybe the 14lb is to thick maybe a different line in 14lb would be better? Thanks
