Rockchalk06 im in the same boat as you, i want both the 744 and 745 but can only afford 1, which one do i get?!?! ahhhhhh lol im really leaning 745 though

If I go the Dobyns route, it will be the 745. I want that extra 1/2oz of max weight. I like a stiff rod for pitching jigs. Rarely with flipping jigs do I cast them.

Well I think it would depend on how heavy jig/weight you would be using.  If you are using 1/2 oz or above regularly I would suggest 745.  If you are using less than 1/2 and occassionally above 1/2 oz to 3/4, I'd probably go with the 744.

Thanks for all the help guys. I really appreciate it. I'm dead set on a 745 now. Come on sales!

Different people have different ideas of what a stiff rod is but be cautious becuase I would not consider the 745 a stiff rod. It does have plenty of power but dont be fooled by the mag-heavy rating.
