First off I wanted to thank you guys for the help on my rod purchase. It was exactly what I was looking for. I know alot of times theres no review after rod purchase help. I paired the rod with a tatula sv . It is really light balanced out and sensitive. Casts 3/8 oz crankbaits like a dream with no effort using 10 and 12 pound fluoro. And I can distinguish the differences in structure really well. I hope this helps another angler looking for a really nice cranbait rod.

I'll be pairing my recently purchased tatula sv  with a dobyns FR 705cb when it comes in on Monday - can't wait!  I considered going higher end on the rod, but this will be more of secondary rod to my main cranker.  I'll likely use it more with spinnerbaits and chatterbaits, along with heavier cranks (over 1/2 oz).
