I use my Dobyns Fury. 7’ ML Fast with a Daiwa Tatula 2500. I use that for a lot of my finesse presentations. Fluke, Senkos, Ned’s, poop baits etc.

I like using the ryugi talisman personally but I’m open to trying some of the suggestions in here. Does the longer shaft have any effect on the action?

Thanks for the input yall. I think I’ll start with the 5” MagDraft for now. My buddy and I are going to an outdoor recreation expo tomorrow and he’s bringing a 6” MagDraft and a 7” keitech swim bait on an owner beast weighted hook. We are gonna rig them on the new set up and see how it handles them.

So I have been a filthy casual at fishing for the majority of my life. Picked up a pole at 4 and ran with it for nearly 30 years. Last year I got more into bass fishing in particular and picked up a Dobyns 7’ ML spinning rod with a tatula 2500 reel. Did a lot of finesse presentations like fluke, Ned’s, wacky rig and Texas rig senkos. Even threw some poop baits and picked up a micro buzz and some other top water lures. This year I wanted to step up my game and picked up an Orochi tour versatile7’ MH and a Curado dc 151 to by my introductory casting rig. I’m interested in picking up some 6” magdrafts. They are an ounce. My rod is rated up to an ounce. I’m not used to the medium heavy rod and I’m worried about throwing something at the top end of the rods rating out of fear I’ll snap the rod. Looking to throw a bunch of new presentations on the caster this year. Frogs like kaeras and gavachos, swim baits, creature baits etc. should I stay lighter than the one ounce? Sorry this is a beginner question. Bass fishing has become my favorite hobby. I just don’t want to break the shiny new toy. Any presentation ideas are welcome. Rod is supposed to be pretty well rounded so I’m trying a bunch of new things and if I fall in love with a technique I’ll probably buy a Rod that is technique specific.
