rosewalt Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Has anyone tried a Falcon Rod if so what do u think?? Thanks Quote
Rob G. Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 They are amoung my favorites. Also made in USA. You cannot go wrong with a Falcon. Quote
Rose_Jackets67 Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 One of my favorite rods is Falcon Cara crankbait rod (model number is CC-4-17 I believe). Fairly light, very sensistive. I use it for everything from #7 Shad Raps to Rapala DT-10s. A DT16 is a little too much though. Something to take note of on the Falcons is that only the Cara and Expert series have lifetime warranties. Originals and Low Riders are 5 years I believe. Quote
cabela10 Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 I like Falcon Cara's and Falcon Cara Reactions, their new sticks. It's a limited lifetime warranty. I've switched from St. Croix to Falcon. I feel that the Falcon's are more sensitive than the Croix's. Quote
rosewalt Posted February 22, 2007 Author Posted February 22, 2007 Thanks for the feed back A falcon is in my future Quote
Super User 5bass Posted February 22, 2007 Super User Posted February 22, 2007 I recently picked up a Cara for the first time and I must say, it felt like a great rod and looked very well built. I was quite impressed with the overall weight and am considering one for myself. Quote
foul hooked Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 I've got a Lowrider and a Cara. Nice rods, they fish great. Quote
Ben Lipiec Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 I have 5 Falcons, but I am switching over to all Kistler rods. I have compared all of my rods to Kistlers and the Kistlers are beyond a doubt just a better quality. The Kistler Graphite Plus Series is nearly the same price as the Falcon Caras and they are much lighter, more sensitve, and more comfortable to fish all day. I like the faster action you get with a Kistler rod. Plus the famous Kistler hook hanger is very nice and practical. I have also dealt with both companies as far as warranties (I have broken way too many Falcons) and having custom rods built and Kistler is much more open to helping out their customers. Just my thoughts. Ben L. Quote
jdw174 Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 I have three Lowriders......great rods at a reasonable price. Quote
Super User Munkin Posted February 23, 2007 Super User Posted February 23, 2007 I have been using a Lowrider spinnerbait rod for two years and think it is great. For the money they are a good buy and I recommend them. Allen Quote
