Rod recommendations

Featured Replies

Hey guys. 

 

I'm looking for a new spinning rod, preferably 63 ft and above. Casting around 1/4oz to 3/4oz and rating of around 10-20lbs. Any recommendations will be appreciated. Thanks!

Was thinking around 2-300 dollars or if anything that's worth it that exceeds the budget

I couldn't make a recommendation as I am not aware of any 63 foot long (or longer) rods.  :D

No idea on a 63 foot rod, but here is your hook when you find it. 685589-straddie-sharks.jpg

Tell us more about what you want to throw with this spinning rod. 

My wife fishes all spinning and it is tough to find just the right rods to match my baitcasting setups for some of the heavier or bigger baits.

She fishes an Irod Genesis IRG713S “Fred’s Power Finesse Rod H” for her jigs and heavier tubes etc.

She fishes a Dobyns Sierra SA 705SF for her big heavy deep water bottom baits as well as for fishing frogs. It has a great tip for that use.

Take a look at 3 Dobyns rods and see what really fits your needs.  The 703SF is a model found in most of Dobyns rod series. That is an all purpose rod but for lighter more finesse baits.  The 704SF is a workhorse of a rod and finally the 705SF I have already spoken about.  By the way I run the Champion XP DC 705C baitcasting rod as my frog rod and it too can handle the deep heavier carolina rigs, jigs etc. 

Lastly check out a Powell Max 3D 714  it is a  7'1 long rod and is rated as a medium heavy rod with an extra fast tip.

I fish different rods from each of these companies and like them all.
