    Dobyns champion xp crankbait rod question

    I’m going to order a 7’ mh for throwing mostly 3/8 and 1/2 oz spinnerbaits. Would the glass or graphite rod be better?

    Not trying to be a smartass...are you sure you want a crankbait rod for throwing spinnerbaits? My common answer for spinnerbait would be a 734, for the above weights a 733 would work. Although I love the 705cb for squarebills, jerkbaits and topwater it wouldn't be on my list for spinnerbaits due to the softer tip and more or a parabolic action.

    I used to throw spinnerbaits on a 705cb, it worked good in open water and around sparse wood but wasn’t great in grass or heavy cover. I now throw spinnerbaits with a 704c and like it better.
