Swimbait/A-rig rod under $200

Looking for the best swimbait and A-rig rod for under $200. A couple things I don't do at all. I assume I'd be able to throw these on the same rod, if not please speak up

I could spend more, but see no need to..

Dobyns fury 795

For heavier A-Rigs and smaller swimbaits, I've been using a 7'6 Heavy action Loomis E6X for both. You could also go with a 7'11 MH Shimano Crucial Swimbait Rod for lighter A-Rigs and larger swimbaits. I've been throwing the 7-inch Convicts on the Shimano Swimbait rod. You can also flip with the 7'6 Heavy Loomis, and the Crucial is a phenomenal rod for 10XDs and 1 oz bladed jigs and the magnum spoons. Both are under $200 and you can use both all year long.

Not a kistler klx arig rod. Braid destroys the cheap inserts.

Irod Genesis II awesome rods!! They make one just for A-rigs and they make some for swimbaits. I use the jr swim rod for 6 inch hudds and smaller swimbaits. You could probably use either rod for both. Check them out on tackle warehouse or Fun n Sun carries them too!

Powell Max 3D

I'd seriously take a look at the 795CF. For the price, these rods are hard to beat. You get a sensitive, lightweight rod for under $190. The Max series of rods have been around for a while now and they're tried and true. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at these rods.

I really like the Megabass Levante Leviathan. Great punching rod etc too.

Abu Garcia veritas schooling rig series

Okuma guide select is a nice rod.

If you like longer handles, check out the okuma guide select and the daiwa swimbait rods. If you like shorter handles then iRod large swim. I have Okuma and the iRod, both are great rods for the price range you mentioned.

Define swimbait

fabulous,,, for not much $$$$$$ really

I use a Shimano A rig rod which is 7ft 9inches in length. The Dobyns Fury did not exist when I bought the Shimano.

The reel I really like to use on it is a Lews Super Duty 5.5-1 gear ratio.

This one bar non

Thanks for all the input. I'd be throwing swimbaits like the savage gear glide swimmer and river2sea s-waver.

Another good rod is the Dobyns Champion 795 for larger baits, but then again I haven't tried the Dobyns Fury line so I don't know how the two rods compare to each other. It is over the $200 price point unless you find a used one.

A buddy of mine picked up a new Phenix rod the other day for swim baits. I was impressed with the rod, very light and well balanced. About $180.

There's a dobyns fury swim bait rod, I don't have one of them, but dobyns rods haven't ever let me down. I don't think you could go wrong with buying it. It should be near perfect for a-rigs as well.

For the price ($109), I've been pleased with this rod. I'm sure a more expensive rod would blow this one away, but I've thrown mid-sized swimbaits (2- 4.5 oz) all day and felt fine with it. I have the heavy action.
