I have the Cobb Series Long Game jig rod and it's become my favorite. There is a lot of techno-vodoo speak in the rod industry, but the tapers are what matter and the Cobb Series offers a lot of really nice tapers. They fish way above their price range.
Jigs and jig rods are a deep, deep, rabbit hole. There are so many different types of jigs, and within that even different styles of jigs within each type of jig, not to mention how and where those jigs are being fished, that all play into what the best rod for it will be.
I had the Dobyns 735C and i returned it because it was just a brick weight wise plus for slack line presentations Dobyns wise you don’t really get there until you get into the Extreme series. Before moving to Megabass rods and exclusively used Ark rods and that 40 ton Toray graphite is the truth. Ark rods really punch above they’re price point
Where would you place the daiwa steez ags bottom contact 2 compared to the 873CRR? I have both so just trying to think which rod would be optimal for which applications
The 873 is on sale at American legacy.
873 with a 3/8oz Beast Coast Lil'Magnum and a Crush City Cleanup craw, trust me.
that combo is tough to beat.. you definitely got something figured out!
873 is a killer rod!
873c one awesome rod, hidden rod in their line up! I have thrown 1/2oz jigs to 12" magnum curly tail worms on this rod.
definitely one of our favorites! hard to not have that one in the boat!
Awesome content 👏
Appreciate you checking it out!

this 873 is my absolute fav for 3/8 jigs. What reel did you have it paired up with?
Shimano Metanium DC 100 HG
@@Americanlegacyfishing sweet, I have the Met DC 70 A on mine
Steez A2 7 speed, lovely combo!
I have a 735 Dobyns how does the action of the 873 compare so I have something to go off of?
Is the 873 ok for 1/2 & 5/8 oz jigs? Thanks for the info.
1/2 oz is perfect. 5/8 is definitely within its range.
