chris55552 Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Is the Falcon Bucco a pretty descent rod at the 100 pricepoint? Is there a big difference between the Jason Christie Sig Series Falcon line and the Bucco? Quote
adam32 Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 The bucoo is a great rod! The Jason Christie rods I've handled all seemed extremely heavy compared to the bucoo. Quote
Super User rippin-lips Posted December 22, 2014 Super User Posted December 22, 2014 Just a heads up but the Bucoo series is very underrated. Their 6'10 heavy pitching stick is actually a medium heavy. Their 7'0 medium is more like a medium light. Nice rods but at $100 I think you could do better. Also the action is usually a moderate-fast which isn't always prefered. There's tons of "best $100 rod" threads. A quick search and you'll have reading info for days. Quote
Bassaddict74 Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 I would agree with rippin-lips. I own a couple Bucoo's & the 7' M is definitely like a ML. I use it for small CB & JB. I will add that they are very sensitive & lite Quote
okbassguy Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 I have a falcon jason christie series i have the 7'0 "buzzbait/crankbait" havent had it long but so far i love it n its says crankbait buzzbait but i fished a jig a crankbait and a spinnerbait n loved it! GOOD LUCk Quote

I replaced a *** Black 7'1" M with it and the Bucoo definitely has more power than what the *** had. I dunno, maybe this is just the case with the heavy and medium rated Bucoo's? Quote
Super User gulfcaptain Posted December 23, 2014 Super User Posted December 23, 2014 The medium bucco is a crankbait Moderate action rod. It's made to be that way and be forgiving. The MH (moderate fast) seem rated fine and have power. Their H is on point (which is a fast action rod). The Jason Christie rods are different action blanks but same material. Quote
