I am a Falcon fan.  I don't own a Bucoo.  I have the 6'10 Cara jig rod.  I use it for  flipping and t-rigging around docks.  I have heard good things about the Bucoo line.  IMO you won't go wrong with getting it for 75.

I have the the lowrider 6'10 H and really enjoy it I am pretty sure it has the same specs as the bucoo you are looking at. It has a nice tip and plenty of backbone I use mine for texas rigs and jigs. I would grab it up for that price!!

I have 2 of that rod. Falcon Bucoo's are overrated so it's a true med/hvy rod. I've never had a single issue with the guides. It uses Fuji components. It's a mod/fast action and though I've used it for T rigs without a problem mine get spinnerbait and lipless crank duty.

yea i played with it some more and think i want somethin with a faster action. sweet feeling rod tho

That's a good easy handling rod there! Fun to fish

And a real good price!

What does it mean when you say faster action?

[robster80]

well i meant a little stiffer rod.

Have 6 of the Bucco rods, needless to say, great feeling rods.  Don't have the 6'10", have 2 of the 7'MH's and great worm rod, also have a 7'3"H and used it for pitching and punching uses.  But for the price Walmart sells them for, def well worth the $75 Walmart price.  The 7'6" I want is double that and wouldn't hesitate to pull the trigger if I found that for the same price.

Another thing comes to mind.  Look the rod over very well.  I have seen kids use rods like swords in my store.
