784 Hands down
I have 2...been thru a lot of different rods before I discovered how great of a rod the 784 is...Sold all my other jig rods.
Simon Peter said to them "I am going fishing" They said "We are going fishing also."

Does it being 3'' shorter "stiffen" it up a bit, I find that 7'8" 784 to be JUST right...

I love my Champion 744 "I have 3 of them" def my favorite rod for any open water jig or big worm. The 735 is great for heavier jigs

I ended up ordering a 745 Champion Extreme and another 735 Fury for small swimbaits. Karls tackle is having 10% off for Fathers Day so ended up getting $50 off!

The rods mentioned will get the job done very well. I like the 784 probably the best for flipping and pitching, but what do I know. LOL. Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.

736 is a great frog and Heavy flipping/punching rod. IMO, too stiff for big shakey head and football head jig. the 734 is a great football jig and big shakey head rod. 735 works, too- just a little heavier for bigger line and vegetation. If you stick to the middle and get the 735 I bet you will be extremely pleased with it's performance. This ^^^^ is right on. I use the 736 with 65# braid and a 1 oz weight for punching thick grass. There is a HUGE difference between the tip action of a 784 and the 736. The 784 Extreme is my favorite rod for the Carolina rig. I use the 745 Extreme for heavy jigs, heavy shaky heads and flutter spoons.

it's a good rod .
I personally like using the sierra series 766 flip. I have 4 of them and two of the older savvy series 766 flip rods. but I like a stout rod. I use it for a big worms, 1 oz. jigs and my carolina rigs and feel everything the bait comes in contact with.
