Hey guys. Ive gotten a lot of questions on IG about the Fury line by Dobyns Rods so I figured I would do a review on the ones I own. I started with a quick review on the 735c last week and today I went a little bit more in depth on the 795sb swimbait model. If your curious, please check it out! Thanks.

Thanks for the review. I'm just getting into throwing bigger baits and will definitely give it a shot. I have several Furys and have been extremely impressed with the quality and action. I don't think there's a better rod in that price point.

I caught your YT video searching for reviews on the 795SB - nice review. I'm torn between 795SB and 806SB. I have a handful of 1-1.5oz swimbaits that I want to keep in rotation with the addition of some 2-5+oz lures.

 

Does anyone have experience throwing lighter gear on the 806?

I really don't like throwing less than 2 oz on my 806. It can do it but the rod doesn't load up enough for it to feel in control. With that said, throwing over 3.5 to 4 oz on the 795 sucks. Really depends what baits you think you'll throw more. Just do what I did and end up with both! Lol

Thanks for responding Andrew. I'm pretty new to fishing, only really started to dial in last year. I still want to purchase a full cranking and frogging set up this year, so I gotta pick one SB set up. Due to the species where I fish, I'm avoiding soft plastic baits. I can stand to lose a few Keitechs, but as much as I want to throw Hudds/Magdrafts, on a scale of 1 to 10 the likelihood of a pike drive-by is sitting around 15.

 

I'm looking at 7" MS Slammer, Jackall Gantia, Dowz Swimmer, Gantarel, Mikey, Megabass Vatalion, iBrake and Grenade, BBZ-1 8" and 168/200 s-waver. So mostly glide baits, few cranks and natural swimmers. I think the BBZ 8", Gantarel and Dowz might be pushing 795SB but just about everything else will work.

You should be good with the 795 brother. The 8 inch BBZ will definitely be pushing it but you should be fine with the other baits.
