Dobyns Rod question

[gumbygold]

I came into posession of a Heavy Flip Fast Dobyns. I love Dobyns so I couldn't pass it up. I don't really do any flipping so I'm wondering what else this rod could be repurposed for. Swimbaits? What else?

Well....punching is an obvious one, you can use it for swimbaits but be careful not to go too heavy. I use mine for Carolina rigging at times or heavier football head jigs in the summer.

Thanks for the reply!

Which Dobyns flip did you get?

[gumbygold]

It's the Sierra. SA 766FLIP

Makes a good power pole replacement!

That's a punching rod...or a pool cue...or a broom handle replacement.
