Never heard of them....wait....are they the ones that were rated higher than the cumulus?

I have a 7ft M Vendetta baitcast, it has been a good rod. Right I have a Revo S on it with 12lb yozuri hybrid.

Honestly for a little more money my Falcon Bucco is much better.

This is assuming you are referring to baitcasters, I don't personally have a spinning version but have heard some less then good things about them.

I have a Vendetta Baitcasting, they are strong and sensitive but not that light. My dad has a Revo SX on it and it is really tip heavy the SX is a 8.8 oz. reel, I would reccomend them but I agree with the guy above go buy a Bucoo.

I have a few Vendettas and think they are fine.  Sensitive and powerful, a bit heavy if 4.4 oz strains you.  The new Veritas and Verdict rods are significantly lighter.

The Boocoo might be a bit lighter but it's not a better rod.

id still love to find a post or article on how to tell if a rod is a good rod or not. how can I, in the store, tell what rods are good rods and what rods are bad rods?

IMO i think your wrong, my Bucoo blows the Vendettas away.

I believe there's an old saying about opinions ...

If thats not an opinion, can i hear the facts you have to back it up?

I have a Bucoo its a great rod, i dont own a vendetta so i cant comment on them.

I have both, and both are good but I do find the Bucoo better. Not only is it lighter but I find it better balanced, and more sensitive. One of the great things about having all these choices for equipment is the ability to buy what we find works best for us. Just because one thing works best for me doesn't mean its best for everyone.

Just went fishin with my new Vendetta for the first time, I was pitchin a weighted worm on the edge of some thick vines on trees, and I got a few bites but i was just lifting my worm on and off of the bottom and the sensitivity was great felt just the smallest bites. I would reccomend one cause I can get them for $40 new but I think I would go with the new Veritas or a Bucoo if I had to pay $80 for them and if you get one get a 7'3" or 7'6" MH or H for wormin/jigin/flippin. Good luck and I hope this helped

Sure can!  The Veritas is more sensitive and powerful.

If i remember correctly that review does not compare a Bucoo vs a vendetta.

The vendetta did receive a high mark on their test but the Bucoo was not reviewed. Looking over the review i think the vendetta may have taken a hit in the most important category Features/ components. They should have went with Fuji guides instead of pac bay.

It also did not fair well on sensitivity w/o the use of braid.
