Shakey Head Spinning Rod

Featured Replies

I'm getting ready to buy a shakey head rod and I've got it narrowed down to 2. A Dobyns 683SF and a Dobyns 703SF. I will be putting a Shimano Stella 2500FE reel on it. I'm kinda short so right now I'm leaning toward the 683SF. If any of y'all think I would be better off with the 703SF please let me know and the reasons why you think so.

Specifically for shakeyheads....no question about it: G Loomis SHR 822 (the mag medium power) comes in GLX and IMX/GL3 fiber blend (Loomis' new bass blends)...rod fishes the medium to heavier duty and deep water jigs well.

I don't use spinning rods as much any more so I sold mine but still kick my myself in the rear for it almost every day...one of the most sensitive sticks you will ever fish. And the tip is perfect for shaking...very fast taper.
