Falcon BooCoo SR Rods ?

[ChrisD46]

I hear good things about the Falcon BooCoo SR casting / spinning  rods and finally was able to view them  in person : Nice rods but most appeared light for their action rating and all appeared to have a moderate fast action which leads me to ask : Are Falcon BooCoo SR rods mainly to be used with braided lines OR treble hook lures ? Thanks in advance for replies from your experience !

Not pretending to be an expert on anything fishing related, but I have two BooCoo rods, a MH and a H that I throw about anything I want on them.  Don't use braid on either.  You are correct in they are a little light for the action, but that is what I like.

I have a 7FT version and use it for Senkos an creature baits. They may appear light but there is plenty of back bone there. Great rods.

I have a falcon bucoo and quite a few other falcon rods.  Yes they are light for their rating but you can adjust for that. They're solid rods for the price.

Except for top water , I'm trying to use braid + leader option  more - so the BooCoo SR could still be a good option for my needs .

I have a 7’0” BRC 417 Med/Mod action.  It is soft as a willow limb and exactly what I was after to throw small cranks or neko rigs on a baitcaster.  10-12 lb flouro.  Great value rods!

"Don't use braid on either."

The way I stated this in a earlier post can be easily misconstrued. I meant, I do not use braid on either rod, but there is absolutely no reason you shouldn't use braid.  Actually a softer rod, imo is a good match with braid, less likely to jerk the bait away from the fish, or tear the hooks out of their mouth.
