Mike Bucca has been a long-time staffer and close friend of Gary's since Dobyns Rods first started. Mike's love for swimbait fishing led him to start his own swimbait company back in 2007. He named his baits and company Bull Shad. These baits quickly filled a niche in the swimbait world. The Bull Shad baits range from 4" to 11" and are super popular with swimbait anglers today. Mike has wanted a special rod that'll throw all of his baits in the larger 6″ to 11″ sizes and now the Bull Shad rod has been made. It's a Mike Bucca signature series Bull Shad rod made to handle his popular larger baits. This rod has a unique length at 8'3" with a full 14" handle. This rod is called a fast action but it's on the slower side of fast, making it an excellent casting swimbait rod. The MB 836SB Bull Shad Special is sure to be a big hit in today's popular swimbait industry.

My friends all want one after trying mine. The extra length does give a bit more casting distance. Im not using the right terminology, but the curvature/power of the rod is great for throwing big swimbaits. Price is good too.
Before I post, I am no expert. I have used a lot of swimbait rods though. This is probably the one with the most sensitivity I have used. Overall, the rod has the typical great quality of all Dobyns rods. Definitely happy with my purchase.
