barroncooper Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 just noticed today that the rod blank on my bucoo 7'heavy was rotating inside the reel seat. I took it back to academy for an exchange but there were no 7'heavy bucoos. they offered to exchange my bucoo for a 6'10" heavy lowrider even swap. question is, will i notice the 2" difference. rod is mainly for t-rigging and football jigs. is the lowrider a better rod?

Uncle Leo Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 I would take the Lowrider it is a better rod, IMHO. The Bucoo is lighter due to the EVA grips. I have both but perfer my Lowrider. Quote
Super User Raul Posted August 2, 2010 Super User Posted August 2, 2010 The blank in the Lowrider is better than the blank in the Bucco, I would take the Lowrider. Quote
barroncooper Posted August 2, 2010 Author Posted August 2, 2010 thanks so much for the input. pitching in the back yard i don't really notice the 2" i lost in length Quote
Super User bilgerat Posted August 2, 2010 Super User Posted August 2, 2010 I got a Lowrider last year and have zero complaints. Falcon makes some nice rods, I think they get lost in the mix and that's a shame. Quote
