Dobyns Champion XP 705 CBMF

Featured Replies

Will this rod work well with 3/8-5/8 oz jitterbugs. Since jitterbugs have trebles I would think it would work. Is this assumption right or should I be fishing them on a MH/F?

The CBMF is a wet noodle of a rod. Go /w the 705CB or CBGlass.

It is a glass rod. Kinda confused about the ratings on Dobyns rods though.  It’s rated at 1/4-1 oz lure and 8-20# test.

Also, MH/Mod-F.

I'm aware it's a glass rod. I've used all 3 which is why I commented on it. The CBMF is a glorified wet noodle of a rod. The 705cb glass is a glass/graphite blend that has a graphite lower section /w a glass upper 1/3(ish) tip. It only behaves as a glass rod when a fish is hooked. The 705 CB isn't a traditional MH/F rod. It's a MH /w a mod/fast tip.  the CBMF behaves like a full glass rod and fishes close to what you consider a M rod than anything else.
