A Dobyns 735C helped me win a two day southeastern collegiate fishing tournament on Lay Lake in Alabama. That spotted bass weighed in at 6.29 lbs and the unbelievable sensitivity and smooth action of that rod helped be catch and land that fish. That was my first Dobyns Rod purchase and it was only 5 days prior to that tournament and I hope that my Dobyns Rod will help me succeed in the upcoming Southern Collegiate Bass Fishing Series tournaments and FLW tournaments. I recommend these rods to anybody whether they are fishing with money on the line or not. Here are the two links to the results from that tournament and media coverage: http://www.auburn.edu/student_info/bass_fishing/christmasclash.html ----- http://www.collegebass.com/news/templates/news.aspx?articleid=147&zoneid=2
