Dobyns Savy Series 2024


fishing user avatarBilly Vang reply : 

Thinking about the 7' Savy rods. They worth the $169. Using it for 3/8 jigs, senkos, spinners and cranks. Opinions would be greatly appreciated.


fishing user avatarsmallies24/7 reply : 

I have the 703 and it works great for jigs in the 3/8 oz range and senkos. I would never throw a crank on it though, its way too stiff. If you throw cranks a lot, invest in a crankbait rod. Definitely worth it and you can get a good one for relatively cheap. I think there are better options in the 170 range, but my savvy works great for jigs in the 3/8-1/2 range and senkos and I am happy with mine. 


fishing user avatarJay Ell Gee reply : 

Nice rods but I would look hard at the new Daiwa Tatula rods as well. Outstanding sensitivity and backbone. Mr. Ron at Valley Sports (site sponsor) could probably get you a smoking deal!


fishing user avatarnew2BC4bass reply : 

I only know what I read about the Savvy line.  At first all the Dobyns were purported to be the best thing since sliced bread.  Anyone who disagreed was quickly shot down.   It wasn't until a couple years after they came out that a few fishermen started admitting the Savvy line wasn't the best for sensitivity.  I personally would be looking elsewhere for that amount of money......strictly based on later reports.  Again, this is only an opinion based on research....not actual experience.  I think there have been several new rods released since the Savvy that would be a better option.


fishing user avatarBilly Vang reply : 

Thanks guys. I will have to do some more research. Looking at the Omens and Powell rods too.


fishing user avatarCgrinder reply : 

I have a 703 Savvy.

 

Positivies: The build quality is very good. Straight guides, no excess epoxy, no gaps anywhere, etc. It's much nicer than I expect from a sub $200 factory rod. The action is also nice; the rod is fast enough to fish senkos and finesse jigs but also moderate enough to fish small lipless cranks and keep fish pinned while still making clean rips through grass. Finally, the rod looks nice. Dark blank, just a little red, cork handle. Cool.

 

Negatives: The sensitivity is on the low end for a $170 rod. My $100 Omens and $159 Crucials blow the Savvy out of the water in this respect. The cork on the handle is full of filler, so the handle starts to look like hell in short order. Lastly, there is no foregrip and plenty of exposed thread above the locking nut. Depending on how you hold your rod or palm your reel, this could be a deal breaker. I'm not really a fan of it.

 

Is the rod worth $170? No, probably not. However, if you can get one used or catch a deal, you could certainly do worse. PM Valley Sports and see what Ron can do for you price wise. You'll like his prices. Still, I would probably buy a Tatula before the thought of a second Savvy ever entered my mind. 


fishing user avatarfishguy613 reply : 

i dont think any dobyns rods are the that sensitive, and i think most people using them know that. What keeps me using them is the vast number of rods for every technique under the sun.

Id recommed the 733/734 but wouldnt use cranks on either, the 734 will handle jigs but the 3 power rods a bit underpowered for that imo


fishing user avatarArv reply : 

The savvy isn't dead feeling in my hands like some might report, but I think there are definitely better rods out there for the money. I wouldn't blink at getting one for moving baits, but for jigs and other bottom contact lures, I would look elsewhere.


fishing user avatarBilly Vang reply : 

Any recommendations for jigging rod no longer than 7ft. besides the Daiwa rod. I do a lot of jigging with trailers. Primarily use 3/8 jigs. I do mostly canoe fishing too.

I too have fished a Savvy line (not bought but borrowed one).  I do like the looks and other things, but for sensitivity I was unimpressed.  I would not recommend a Savvy because you can get far better for the price range.  Take a look at the Crucial, Fenwick Aetos or St. Croix Avid.  I've used all of them, they are better all around than the Savvy imo especially that price range.


fishing user avatarsmalljaw67 reply : 

I put the Saavy in the same deal as the G.Loomis GL2, it isn't a bad rod and would be good if priced around the $100 dollar mark but at the current price you could do a lot better. We all have our favorite rods and most other rods in the $150 - $180 category will be better, it just depends on what you are looking for. You are looking for a rod for jigs, weighless plastics (senko), spinners and cranks well you will be able to get a rod for most of your list but crankbaits is going to be tough to fish on a jig and worm rod. You need to either get a separate rod for cranks or compromise on the size of baits you are going to use and get a medium power rod with a fast action. So take a look at 7' rods that are a medium power with a fast action, they will let you fish a 1/4oz jig and trailer pretty well, a 3/8oz jig with skirt and trailer is going to be pushing it, especially in cover. The same deal with spinnerbaits, willow leaf blade spinners will be good up to 3/8oz maybe 1/2oz if the skirt isn't heavy, and then your cranks are all going to be mid depth but at least you can throw a little of every thing. You best bet would be to get a MH rod for all your single hook baits and a cranking rod for your treble hook baits, and it isn't impossible as you can get an *** Black or a HMG for $100 and grab a BPS Cranking Stick for $70 when there is a sale.

I felt a fish chomp my jig 15 ft deep on slack line the other day on a DX745. I don't know how that's not sensitive...

The Powell Endruance should be available at Fish ranger .com for 150 or so. The Max line is also a good choice IMO. Phenix makes a good offering with the M1 and Recon. The St. Croix Rage and Avid are built on the SCIII blank which makes for good sensitivity in my hands. The Fenwick Elite Tech and Aetos could be good options as well though I've never fished one. All of these recommendations are assuming you're wanting to stay in the $150-200 range. You can also keep an eye on the fleamarket here. Great deals on great gear pop up all the time.

Agree. I've never been left wanting more from my DX series rods and I own an NRX.

 

The savvy series though....it's best left for moving baits.  It has "feel" but for the price the return isn't really there and I love Dobyns rods.


fishing user avatarwebertime reply : 

St Croix Avid 7'0" MH fast.

They can be found fairly often for $100-125 used. Sales are coming up so new ones will be $160ish.

I have 3 Phenix Recons including a 715, the equivalent to a MH St Croix. I like my used old Avid more than the Recons for jig/big single hook baits.


fishing user avatarfishguy613 reply : 

i should clarify, ive always been happy with every aspect of my dobyns rods. Even my one savvy(733) i like just as much as my others, its currently my fluke rod


fishing user avatarSenkoGuru reply : 

I've been saying Dobyn's was way over priced for years and I have been labeled the black sheep and down talked because of it. Truth is starting to come out though. The DX isn't a bad rod but you can get much better for way less money. I have always said the Savvy should be a $100.00 priced rod. The champ a $150.00 and the DX a $200.00. At $350.00 for a DX I have always laughed at but this is always been in my own opinion. You can buy a Megabass XX for $300.00

I know that you know the prices of them, but have you ever fished them? I agree, the Savvy isn't worth much. I would put the Champ more in the $200 price range, not amazing sensitivity but good, and immaculate build quality. The DX is well worth the money and is extremely sensitive, as stated in my earlier post. You say you would price it at $200? It blows everything in that price range out of the water no question.

The Champion to me fished just as good as an Aetos or Avid level, so I think it is slightly over priced.  Also, everyone has their own preferences keep this in mind.  Like I'd take an Aetos over most 200-300 dollar rod, because I feel they fish just as well or at least comparatively.  Others may feel different, the only rod in that range I'd buy over an Aetos would be the Cumara.

 

I have never fished a DX so I don't know how it would compare against my G Loomis GLXs.  But from what I read, they are compared more to the GLX line than the NRX.  So can't say if they are priced right or wrong.  If they do compare to the GLX then it's priced right.


fishing user avatarkickerfish1 reply : 

I have 2 Savvy series rods that are in the regular rotation (734 and 735). For a period of time I was fishing Texas rigged plastics using a tungsten weight, swimming bigger California Swim jigs and fishing standard jig and craws. I wanted to see how they would operate for bottom contact and feel apps. I Have been bass fishing for years and cut my teeth on rods that were all under $100 to $150 learning. Having to feel bites on the rods of yesteryear will make you appreciate the better rods of today. In short I had zero issues detecting bites from bottom debris. I really like the versatility in their rods and the balance/casting distance/accuracy. It probably wouldn't be my 1st choice for a bottom contact in that price range unless I was sold on building an arsenal of exclusively Dobyns rods.

 

However after acquiring many higher end rods I have the 735 as my devoted frog/toad rod and the 734 for spinnerbaits, chatterbaits, bigger swim jigs, and lighter soft body swimbaits.

 

A good buddy of mine uses his Savvy 703 for a lot of feel techniques and he truly feels it is sensitive "enough" in his hands.


fishing user avatariabass8 reply : 

Im assuming he's going to say duckett. Shocker i know...

Let it go JG. These posts just turn into giant joke arguing about how their favorite color is potato after 2 pages anyway


fishing user avatarDTack reply : 

This is going really sideways really fast. In my opinion they are worth the $169 amount. You have a lot of good options out there at this point truly. I'm not going to sit here and tell you one brand isn't good then drop one word about a brand I'm "recommending" to tell you that is the one you should buy. We all have our favorite rods that's rather obvious. Try to find a rod that fits you and a brand that you trust and agree with the actions. I don't feel the need to sit around and constantly push a brand or say that another brand is garbage including things like "we lost another". Some brands have earned a vendetta against them. I'm not really sure why aside from some very happy customers. The thing about the Internet is you have thousands of people telling you something they "think" or "heard" without much you can do to validate what they are saying.

I would be a happy guy on a few techniques with the savvy series... There are some that the actions aren't great for. I just love that people keep bringing up things like sensitivity which is one thing that just isn't lacking to me... But to each their own!


fishing user avatarSenkoGuru reply : 

A large amount of that sensitivity comes from the line you use and tungsten, not the rod. I also never said they were better, I said I would take them over the DX, the reason is because the DX does not blow them out of the water. The DX is not worth the extra price with very little difference.  In fact it is VERY close and when you factor in the price, Ill take a Duckett White Ice, Kistler KLX, *** ***, Airrus Micropulse-X and a few others quick fast and In a hurry over the Dobyn's. The MegaBass XX blows the DX out of the water for $300.00, even that's less in price than the $350. I really do not care what you guys fish with, I want you to fish with what makes you happy. I'm just glad to see other starting to step up and agree with what I've been saying for years. I thought once you were a Dobyn's Zombie we couldn't get you back but now I see there is hope, it can be done, they are waking up.

fishing user avatarsmalljaw67 reply : 

I agree with SenkoGuru on the price of the Dobyns rods, but it isn't because they aren't good. The reason is because they are commanding a price in the same ball park as G.Loomis and St. Croix, and those rods are made here in America with mostly Fuji Components. Dobyns rods are made over seas with Fuji Reel seats but Kigan guides, they aren't bad but they aren't as costly as Fuji, I have no trouble with this as I also like Pac Bay but the problem is price. Being that the rods are made overseas and use less costly components you would thing the rods would be moderately priced but they aren't, they are very expensive for a rod made overseas and not in Japan. Labor cost in Korea aren't as cheap as China but it is still less than here or Japan and that alone should make the rods more affordable, they are good rods or they wouldn't have the following but from the rods I've used in the series and their respective prive point, I'd have to say that they are a tad bit higher than what they should be but if they work for at that price point then fine. I'll state it one more time, this is my opinion and it has nothing to do with rod quality, the Dobyns series of rods is well made, I just feel that the components along with overseas production would make for a little less expense, I think the Loomis GL2 isn't close to what you get and I would say the Saavy is a better rod but I understand that some of the price is due to the labor cost. I don't dislike the Dobyns rods, I've only used the Champion and the Saavy rods and at the price point I can honestly say they aren't for me but it isn't just price, it is feel and they don't feel good to me as I prefer a lighter rod and I'm in the minority in that I don't care for the ECS reel seat that is used on their rods.

BUT DOOD!  It has the word EXTREME and color changing paint and stuff on it!!!  

 

 

 

 

I'm obviously joking but still...  We need to keep in mind that this is a perfect case for "different strokes for different folks"...  Some may prefer the combination of all factors of a DX over an XX, and vice versa and it's important to understand that everybody is different.  I'd venture to say that $350 is a ton to spend but I've done it, and anybody who spends that much deserves to demand the perfect rod- if whatever rod you bought didn't jive perfectly with your needs/wants, you're going to have a low opinion of that rod since you spent so much money on it and had such high expectations.  

 

 

Now, it's worth noting that I got an NRX 852c for that $350 and at that price I think it was worth it- but full retail?  Nope.  Not even close.  $550+ is crazy talk to me and I just don't see it- but that's not to say someone else thinks its totally worth it and that's totally cool with me!  

 

 

It's probably a really good thing that there are so many different options since we're all different.  I just wish people didn't act like their way was the only way, and that their expertise should be valued above all others when considering a rod.  It's very important to remember that our opinions are just that- opinions, and while it's important and valuable it's not exactly a universal fact.  While having fished and felt a rod and relating your experience and impressions is invaluable to determining where exactly a rod's strengths and faults lie, it's also important to not take it too personally when a rod isn't your unicorn fully realized.  It's bound to happen.

See, here is a post which MAKES SENSE as to why this person feels the rods aren't worth the price asked.  I don't agree with what is stated and that is just fine.  I won't bother to reply to what is stated here as it's not important!  He gives specific reasons why he didn't like the rod!  Do I agree with some of the opinions?  No way!  But they are stated in a way that can be respected!  Once again, don't agree with some of the facts but, great post!

Sure has, fished a dx745 for about 30 minutes befor having to put it down.  The Duckett feels and fishes much better.

  I'm upset with duckett over the treatment of Valley Sports but Duckett is a MUCH better rod than the Dobyn's are imo. I fished with a Dobin's DX 745 for about 30 minutes before I had to put it down and pick my Duckett 7'3' Heavy White Ice back up. To me the Duckett just feels and fishes much better. To each his own I guess.

I said I was gonna let it go, but I have one more post, and in no way questioning anyone. Thank you for letting me know that he has used it, as I was not going to dig through posts to see if he had. It's funny because I used to own A LOT of Ducketts, and the 7'3" heavy White Ice was my favorite one, until the reel seat stripped, and guides started popping off on hooksets. I don't baby my equipment, but I'm not hard on it either. I also had two other White Ice rods and a handful of Micro Magics, and I got two Micro Magics straight from Duckett with misaligned guides. One guide was on the side of the rod compared to others. Also, I had the 7'11" White Ice swimbait rod that snapped right above the reel seat when casting a light Alabama Rig, that is just unacceptable...Anyways, I used a DX 745 after the White Ice and that is why I let them go. Quality control and feel. I prefer the actions of Dobyns rods better, and I find the sensitivity of the Champion to be better than the White Ice, not just the DX. But, I understand that SenkoGuru likes the Ducketts better and that's fine with me. It doesn't make me one difference. I had no way of knowing that he had fished a DX, as all he said was that he had used a Dobyns. I think what bothers me is that the OP asked about the Savvy, then there comes the people talking about all the Dobyns lines for no reason. It wasn't even part of the OP's original post. No need to bash a rod when it wasn't even mentioned. But since you brought up Duckett, I thought I would give my opinion on it. Like I said, if you like Duckett better SenkoGuru, then by all means use it. Whatever feels the best in anyones hand is what they should use. I agree with what you said earlier, these are all opinions and different strokes for different folks. I just don't see a need in talking down the DX when that isn't the model the OP was asking about. It seems to happen on every thread mentioning Dobyns these days.

Thanks guys. I will have to do some more research. Looking at the Omens and Powell rods too.

I have not handled an *** rod so I won't comment on that, I believe there has been a lot of context about those rods here.  When it comes to Powell/Dobyns Savvy I will take the Savvy every time.  There are a lot of people who will disagree there and that is fine.  I am obviously a fan of Dobyns.  I still fished Powell when the generation 1 series of Dobyns came out.  They were not priced as strong as the Powell (at the time), although slightly better overall including balance, build quality and materials that for me did not justify the price difference.  (Reason I understand people's concerns with price difference).  Once the generation 2 Dobyns came out THEN I was fully convinced that the price difference was worth it.  The generation 2 Dobyns blew away the generation 1 and even the Generation 1 extreme rods in every aspect.  At this point Powell was no longer a rod I would consider putting against a Dobyns.  When the Savvy series came out I was truly curious how it was going to compare to the Powell Max line.  With a fresh memory in my head and plenty of Powell models to be able to compare the rods to (since I sold all of mine to my buddies) I grabbed a couple of savvys and took a couple different buddies out (on different occasions).  We fished the rods basically side by side and kind of traded back and forth.  I was happy with the overall results of the savvy and my friends were a bit upset about the fact that they were too haha.  These results come from fishing the rods feeling multiple baits, hooking fish on the rods and putting fish in the boat.  They are not results from things like casting, feeling it in a store, putting the tip on the ground then putting a cell phone on the ground on vibrate to "measure sensitivity".  My favorite rods in the savvy lineup are the 734c, 735c, and 766c.  The actions on these rods are a bit different than say a Powell Max.  The Dobyns feel just slightly slower overall.  I think this is where some of the "sensitivity" issues come from.  From what I have experienced most people will feel a stiffer rod or a faster tipped rod and it will feel more sensitive to them.

We all want different things from rods I believe and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.  Casting is a popular concern with rods...  For me, this is what I rank last.  A rod with a nice soft tip can be a compromise I don't want to make depending on the technique.  I am more concerned about a rod putting a fish into the boat as that is what I fish for.  I don't fish to cast, I fish to put fish into the boat and that is all there is to it. 

For what you have let us know you're wanting to fish I would recommend a 734 savvy, it won't be as perfect for cranks but if you upgrade to heavy hooks on the cranks (like the KVD short shanks from Mustad) I truly think you'd be find throwing cranks on it as long as you're not using braid as well. 

If there are more specific questions that you have, feel free to please ask.  I hope you enjoy fishing whichever rod you choose!  As many have recommended check with Ron at Valley Sports as he does a great job providing fantastic prices and service for the board members and he deserves the consideration for your business!

 You act like you have to have the last word in everything and your opinion is always right and any one who doesn't agree is wrong. Well, sorry to tell you bubby, it doesn't work that way. If you wanted to end this so called argument then you would just quit, you would stop taking cheap shots and let it go but do you think when you post trying to get under my skin that I will not post back, you're crazy. Just drop it. I'm not now or have I ever started this bull crap, I post my opinion and here you guys come out of the wood work.

 

 

 

Oh come on.  Your post was so heavily baited, a largemouth just took a swipe at my monitor.   :laugh5:

 No chuck doesn't know BJJ, they would win by a karate chop.
