Dobyns DX745C w/ Chronarch Ci4+ HG for me

I have the DX742 and love it for drop shotting, also have the Champ 702, so I assume the DX702 would be awesome as well

My personal experience, that anything under 40lb braid for me digs into easy on my baitcasters and causes these problems

Here is a blog review I did on the 150HG - http://www.krugerfarms.com/blog/shimano ... e-changer/

Interesting sites

I think Tramp Stamp is my new favorite for all water

NEW Arashi's seem pretty legit, that self tuning tie seems to work great for me

Agreed, amazing stuff!

Not sure, it is numbered 1 to 6 on external, if I had it on 4 and was getting minor over runs pitching and skipping around trees, then I could turn it up to 5 or 6 and pretty much eliminate it.

I picked up a 150HG from KrugerFarms.com, as they had them in pretty early. Have had it for a few weeks now, love it, will buy more! External brake adjustment is super handy as well for fine tuning.

Just checking for guys that may have bought these pre-made and that got into making their own and have some to get rid of.....

3/8oz BassTEK Tungsten Jig in Black/Brown/Green Pumpkin Mix, not sure on the trailer, I have a handful I like....

I like to punch with a BassTEK 3/4oz Tungsten Jig when I can, it is just so much more efficient. Less fixing of baits, use less plastics, but sometimes they want something with slimmer profile, but if they'll eat it, I will always stick with the jig!

Sounds like you are on the right path, for what you are talking about, I really like my Dobyns DX 743C which is pretty close to what you are describing

I use mainly 702 and 742 Dobyns for these applications, that being said, I normally run braid to fluoro leader, if straight fluoro, I'd probably bump up to 703 & 743
