  2. I know this has been discussed before but I have a few parameters that might be different. First off definitely a Loomis, I’ve tried other brands and currently on Dobyns, but finding my way back to Loomis out of preference. I’m looking for a casting rod for almost solely wacky four and maybe 5 inch Senkos. I fish from a kayak and flip a lot around cypress stumps and knots. I’m actually legally blind so sensitivity is paramount. Line watching only works when the sun is just right. I actually use Fluoro over braid because it’s easier to get through the hook eye. I used a 744c for a season and pulled a fair number of hooks. I think because of too much pressure so close in. I moved to a 703c but am wondering if a GLX or NRX would be more sensitive than the Dobyns. What would you all recommend in the Loomis range for what I’m doing? The 893c comes highly touted but I’m worried I may have same problem as the 744c. Hook wise I’m using G-finesse wacky because I’ve had great results with fish staying stuck since moving, but open to hook suggestions. I think I may miss fish with spinning gear that hit on drop right away and my line is too slacks. Thanks for any input
