Jace D Posted July 16, 2017 Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 Any of the custom builders will make an excellent rod for you that will be hard to beat with any of the off the shelf rods. That being said, if you're on a tighter budget (cuz let's face it, even a Dobyns is expensive) then an Okuma guide select xh will do the job just fine. It's gonna be more tip heavy than the more expensive rods but is has pretty good components and it has the strength to throw it well. Just another option if you don't feel like spending $250+ on a rod. californiacatcher 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basskickinrednick Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 Or you could get the phenix m1 inshore 3-8 oz same rating as the ldc xh and moam psycho. And half the price Low&Slow and californiacatcher 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low&Slow Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 Or you could get the phenix m1 inshore 3-8 oz same rating as the ldc xh and moam psycho. And half the price Awesome rod very versatile great feel to it. Throws the 250 like a dream. I have never tried to but I think it would be more than capable to lob my Hinkle trout. basskickinrednick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shimano77 Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 I have a Dobyns 807 headed my way and as well my first deps 250. I hope the 807 works ok for the 250. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
