glaeserbj Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 I'm wondering if any of you have had experience with both of these rods and could tell me which would be a better option for Owner Beast/jig hook baits. Looking to purchase another swimbait rod soon with tax season rolling around, and I'm stuck between these two rods for the money. Being a beginner I'm not yet throwing around baits that weigh more than 4 ounces or so, but I have a Fury 795 right now and it seems those 3-4 oz jig hook baits are just too much for that rod. Thanks y'all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinos240 Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 Iv had a daiwa and liked it more for treble hook baits, id go with a irod gen 2 they have a faster tip for jig hook style baits imo glaeserbj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrhodesBassin Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 I fish both and the daiwa is a broomstick compared to the dobyns glaeserbj and bassfiend72 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skibass Posted February 9, 2018 Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 Love my Daiwa DSXB! Never been a fan of the less expensive Dobyns honestly. You’ll get 100 different opinions but I know you will have no issues with the Daiwa. Good luck glaeserbj and El_Weruso 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
