Dobyns Rods Fury Casting Rods
$129.99

Reported by
Sam Moll
Kentucky Lake (TN)

Reported by
Samuel Climer
Alvarado Lake (TX)
Samuel Climer reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Soft Body Swimbaits (Large) technique and Dobyns Rods Fury Casting Rods on Alvarado Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Okay guys a little crash course for big swimbaits. Water temps are 55 and climbing through the day with slightly stained water. About 4” of visibility. I stuck with the magdraft for most of the day and focused on the main lake areas what has little contour. Most of the lake is pretty barren with minimal amounts of channels or ditches. The bass were pushing bait up to the surface and I used my forward facing sonar to pin point them and make the cast on their heads. You don’t have to absolutely rip their heads off with the magdraft so a steady sweep of the rod will do the trick! Good luck!"

$379.99 – 429.99

Additional comments from this report: "Caught a ton of fish on shallow-medium crank baits on points but the big fish came on a Magdraft later in the day. Look for shad hugging the bottom or jumping up top if the wind is right. "
