New Dobyn's Series

Post by tacklejunkie2 » Thu Sep 13, 2018 9:27 pm

Just received and read the September Dobyn's newsletter. The newsletter states that a new series called XTASY will soon be released. The series will initially consist of 5 casting models and 5 spinning models. The newsletter stated they'll retail for $549.99. The rods will be constructed from Toray's new Nano material and include Fuji torzite guides. No release date was given.
