Is The Dobyns 734 The Most Versatile Rod on Earth? - Strategic Angling S2E14

Brady Hanna is joined by longtime (12+ YEARS) Pro Staffer JJ Patton to break down different rods he uses as well as a review of every 734 that Dobyns makes. This man has spent more time with a 734 in his hands than any human on the planet.

Great review guys 100%! I use the XP735C for pitching creature baits, XP736C has a frog on it 24/7. Can't wait to try our my new XP734C, have a small jig on it right now. The 734 is my 19th Dobyns rod 😉

I love the 734 so much that I have 5 of them. They're truly the perfect do everything rod.

Just picked up the XP 734C during the black Friday sale at ALF. Paired it with my new Diawa SV Limited, ready for action. This is my 19th Dobyns rod , all I use 👊 💪!

What are your guys thoughts on the Champ XP 733c? I bought it to throw smaller 1/4oz 3”-3.8” swimbaits on so I was expecting it to have a softer tip but it actually seems to be quite a bit faster than my Champ XP 734c.

Also DOBYNS has a great Special going on currently to test some new Cork-Mix handles on 4 Champion XP models including the 734 & 735. Only $199.99 so tough to pass up. I just bought the new 794.5 model for A- Rigs & Swimbaits. New handle feels great but haven’t had it out on water yet.

Love the dobyns content! In the last couple months I picked up the champion 733c and 734c along with the fury 703c I got a year ago.I was about to order the 764c but after some exchanges with Brice, I decided on the 763c as a little heavier version of the 733. After hearing your description of 764c,I definitely believe I made the right choice. Love all the dobyns content!

Thanks Patrick!

So in the 734 line, what is JJ’s choice for 3/8oz swimjigs? Thanks in advance!!!

[@tyiazzetto4454]

Don't sleep on the xtasy 724c! For a higher end versatile rod it's hard to beat, can do moving stuff but has excellent sensitivity for jigs and t rigs too. Some what like the 744c rods you mentioned but better to me for the moving baits additionally. Great vid fellas!

[@kktx4058]

Agree 734 Champ is super versatile. If you are not fishing heavy hydrilla I love the 735 Champion XP Glass for chatterbaits…. The best chatterbait rod I have reverted fished. Also agree the Champion XP 764 is a great TX rig rod… love it for 10” worms here in TX.

[@techtiger38]

I would strongly suggest the Kaden 735CB. I have yet to lose a fish on a chatterbait.

[@techtiger38]

Best spinnerbait rod on the planet!!!

[@thewaterox1]

Not even in the mix

[@troycote4503]

No, it's no different than any other 7 ft 3 in 4 power rod!
