im in the market for a dedicated jig rod, i like the savvy line, simply because i can afford it, and they are nice balanced and light rods and feels natural in my hand, i have a 704 savvy heavy/fast that i bought for jigs and plastics, but now im on the water more and realize id like to have a dedicated jig set up, im sick of switching from plastics to jigs on the same rod when different scenerios come up, the 704 seemed too heavy for my plastics but a little lighter for jigs, but im now getting used to it as i fish alot of plastics on this rod, i was looking into the 705 or the 735 for a jig rod. what do you guys think, i cant just go out and hold them, so im flying blind into how id like the mag heavy blank, or should i use the 704 as jig rod and buy a 703 for plastics? seems the mag heavys are better for jigs but again what do i know, thanks for the time!

I would personally recommend the 735 for Jigs.

Savvy series are slightly slower in action than Champion series in my opinion and my jig rod is a Champion 734. The Savvy 735 Micro might be exactly what you are looking for in a jig rod.

Yes, the 735 is what I would get.

X2 SS735

I use the 734C for jigs and a 703C for plastics. If your not stuck on Dobyns, the Falcon Cara Headturner is also a very good jig rod.

Hey thanks guys 735 it is! Now should I do a micro or standard

Maybe I missed it, but what size jigs/trailers are you going to be throwing with the rod?

mainly 3/8, 1/2, and 3/4 oz but mainly 3/8 and 1/2 oz not including trailers, never weighed them but they are paca chunks and rage tails

I'd think the 4 power rods would be better fits for that weight range.

Personally I think a 704 is great for most with a 3/16 or 1/4oz weight, I don't tend to fish jigs over 1/2oz and usually use a MH for most of my jig fishing. I'd say get the 735 for a dedicated jig rod.

The 4 power, at least in the Extreme series rods, is rated up to 1oz. I have the DX784ML and it easily handles 1/4-3/4 and has great sensitivity. I don't think I'd buy a 5 power unless I was throwing a lot of jigs bigger than 3/4oz.

i havent been throwing jigs like id like as i dont really have a rod that i really enjoy throwing them with, i do plan to throw bigger jigs and mess with lighter punching this summer, and i will be using this as a top water rod when im not throwing jigs, i am buying a 735 as it will handle my lighter baits as far as my heavier baits. these dobyns will be used for a long time as these are killer rods at this price point, im not a tournament angler, im lucky to get out once a week, many times just 2 times a month so anything more pricy would make me feel guilty as im not made of money haha. now the question is, what do you guys recommend, micro guides or standard guides. i cant feel these rods before i buy, and i have never felt a rod with micros let alone use them.... thanks for everyones input! its appreciated
