Re: Medium Power cranking rod

I have the x10 and 704cb, they both will work for what you have listed. The x10 has the softer tip and the 704cb is more sensitive imo.

Help deciding Dobyns 705cb or 705 glass

I am looking for input on which model would be best for squarebills like a 1.5 and would load up good on a roll type cast with spinnerbaits in the 3/8oz range.

Suffix 832 Braid HI- Vis

Does this line lose its color like the other colors. I am looking for something easy to see when using a flourocarbon leader. The local shops do not carry Power Pro in yellow.
