Dobyns 706CB Huh?

Post by SteveDB » Thu Mar 31, 2011 11:16 am

In the last couple of days I`ve seen two different posts either here or another board referencing a Dobyns 706CB. Is there such an animal? Did not see it on their site. Possibly a discontinued model?
The reason I`m asking is that although I`m a big Croix fan, I prefer Dobyns cranking rods. I have a 705CB graphite and wished they made a 7' cranker in a 6 power. Bought the 705 for fishing square bills and to see how it was for ripping traps over grass and wish it had more power.

No there isnt a 706 CB in the Champion line just the 705 CB and glass.

Powell makes a 706 CB and St Croix makes a heavy crankbait rod the avid AVC70HM.
Thanks for the epiphany captain obvious

764CB RM? 765CB Glass? No 6 power rods cranking sticks that I know of.

I can't remember if there was one listed for Gen 1 sticks or not. AFIK, even if there was, one wasn't ever produced.
