Thanks bud

What is the actual sweetspot as far as weight when it comes to these. Will I be able to throw an 8inch hudd and baits around that weight comfortably cause I bought an 806xp and the ratings are a Lil over done IMO.

I'm a pretty small dude. 8 ft is my limit for rods. Anyone recommend anything else to throw those hudds? Thank @Mossypumpkin for all your input

@Mossypumpkin as the 806 being my first rod I'm throwing 65-80braid to a 20-30lb sunlight FC shock leader or 30lb mono. So than what rod would u recommend for throw 8" hudds and heavier baits. Is would the omega xh work or would I want the xxh for that? I really only know about dobyns rod, leviathan, lose, and f5.. and rod recommendations would be great.

So I just bought my first swimbait rod Dobyns Champ 806 mostly because it was on sale. It says it's a fast action and rated 2-8oz. Is this rating accurate or what is the sweet spot as far as bait weight? I was looking for a rod that can throw both treble and jig hook baits, I know it's not perfect for throwing both but what do most of yall throw on it trebels or jig hooks. Thanks for the info

I have numerous baits from him, gills, shads, wakes, and they are high quality and do the job
