MattGbaz Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 Looking for a rod for the Deps 250 and glides in the 4.5-8oz range but mainly the 250. max $300. Looking at dobyns 807 which is a 3-10oz rating and it looks solid. pairing it with tranx 300 hg with 25lb floro. anyone got any other ideas and options for rods. if anyone has anything that there willing to sell send pics and ill think about it.

SumoNinja Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 I think you're solid. An 867 or 908 would do too if u sticking to dobyns Badfish562 and MattGbaz 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossypumpkin Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 867 for sure! The extra length is amazing and the 807 isn’t parabolic like the 867 Loganodum38, Badfish562, bassfiend72 and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattGbaz Posted February 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 Thanks. The 867 is rated 4-16 so my primary baits would be the 250 and 10in tt. Would the 4.5oz tt be to light for the 867 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still an incredibly versatile rod. The 807 is more like a 2-6. The 867 is perfect for what you’re looking for NORTHERN_GLIDER, Loganodum38 and Badfish562 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drewmoniz Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 I haven’t tested the upper limits of the 867 but it’s absolute money for 2 oz and up to a Deps 250. The 807 is better suited for soft baits. Mossypumpkin and Loganodum38 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
