Took my new Dobyns 634CB jerkbait  rod to pond today to try out for first real time. For past 7-10 days fishing has been very slow. Yesterday it rained all day and cold front came in.

 

Todays was in 60's and I spent 3 hours fishing and caught 5 LMB, lost 2 and had several nice strikes. I caught one on a T-rigged finesse setup, the other 4 were caught on the Dobyns with a Smithwick Floating Rattlin Rogue in baby bass coloring.

 

The last two were 2+ pounders caught in same area just a couple feet off shore only about 10' off to me left.

 

Gotta say the Dobyns is a great rod and the shorter length really gave me extra room for casting while fishing from shore. 

 

 

Sounds like a great outing, congrats !!!!

Outstanding!

You did great.

Keep up the good work and save for that Ranger.

i wouldn't complain about that type of outing any day.  I am hoping to get on a few jerk bait fish this weekend as well....swung by bass pro and picked up a few shadow raps
