I like the heavier Dobyns rods for my pitching and flipping. I LOVE the length and the touch of it casting/flipping and fighting bigger fish. Course, what do I know. I lie in the rolling plains of Texas, BUT, my neighbor has a small lake on his property and lets me fish it. FULL of 3 to 6 lbers that LOVE shallow running baits. GO figure. LOL Hope this helps. Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.

If I was going to spend that much, might as well go up to NRX. 894 is the best 1/2 jig rod ever made. I got rid of Megabass perfect pitch. Pitching with that 894 is awesome

http://dobynsrods.com/rod/dx-744c-sh/The DX 744C S/H is my absolute favorite for pitching and skipping jigs and Texas Rigs. I have two of them and both are always on the deck. Paired with a Diawa Tatula SV I can skip jigs and Texas rigs way back in there. Some people like the full cork handle better but for flipping and skipping I like the splt handle. If I'm dragging, reeling I would rather have the full handle. Ain't it great to have options. For heaviier than 1/2 ounce step up to the 745 and 746. What he said but for 1/2oz size jig you mentioned wanting to throw, I definitely suggest you bump up to the 745

I love my nrx 854 for that. They can be had for your price or a little lower by asking dealers to match a price you saw on ebay or wherever. Ive gotten them for 375-425 This, I can feel 'em looking at it.
