The brainchild of the West’s all-time leading money winner, Gary Dobyns, the Champion XP series rods are not just made for a specific technique, each rod is built for improving and maximizing your effectiveness with that given technique. The ultra sensitive yet durable graphite blanks are perfectly balanced with precise actions and tapers, and the new Fuji tangle-free K-guides with Alconite inserts also offer greatly improved durability, as well as, increased casting performance. Equipped with premium lightweight Fuji reel seats as well, each rod also now features high quality AA cork split grip handles for reduced weight and all day comfort. Take your fishing to the next level with the new Dobyns Champion XP Split Grip Casting Rods.
