    Umbrella rig rod! Dobyns Fury 795 or??

    Currently use an older Powell max flipping stick but want something with a softer tip. Mostly throw lighter rigs 3.5 keitechs. Ive read the 795 Fury is a great rid and I own many Dobyns rods. Was looking at the Phenix or Shimano Zodias . Not Want a Medium heavy fast rod. 7'6 to 7'9. Open to other brands as well . Dont want a broomstick or heavy swimbait rod. What yall throwing!

    Thanks Chris

    I went through the same process a couple months ago. Bought the 795 Fury on the suggestion of a friend. Wrong time of year for me to have thrown it yet but just holding it it feels like itll be much better than the old cheap Skeet a rig rod id been using. Its certainly heavier than a typical MH rod that you say you dont want. Wish i had more input to offer and i will this fall, but both guys i know using it swear by it

    After holding the Fury 795 cancelled my order. Held the Shimano SLX 7'11 Heavy. Feels way lighter and perfect! SLX for the win
