Academy Sports
Powertech Props
Costa Sunglasses
Rouses Stores
K2 Coolers
American Rodsmith
Chevy
NaticStar
Mercury Motors

and those are just a few. So there is no issue not supporting DUCE but you will also need to stop supporting ALL brands associated with CCA in order to make it fair and for your boycott to be effective.
This is "twisted"

Only difference between the above companies is that they honor there warranties, just saying.

You're a year behind man. You need to be properly informed before making ignorant statements, just saying.
New owners, new warranty. Even warrantied the older models they were not associated with.

Company has done a definitive about face in a year? Who on here has been touting the great service besides you? Of course you get it, they send you free rods and want great press.

I do remember one guy that still couldn't get ahold of them, and you were surprised because the new Duce wasn't responding. And this poor guy wanted to buy more stuff from them, yet he couldn't get them to pick up and take his cash!

Same brand name and saying not associated with is a ignorant statement, just saying. I am happy that your company is doing warranty work on the rods now, that's what all good companies should do.

I'm thinking about picking up this rod for bass and trout fishing throwing out spinners, and plastics like the Matrix Shad. Feedback on this rod for the intended purpose????

Seven foot medium. It's perfect for matrix shad on jigheads. You may want to go with a 6:1 ratio reel for spinners.

AubreyLaHaye458 04-21-2015 07:31 PM
That rod will be a little soft for throwing spinnerbaits. At least for my personal preference.

Thanks!

So I was looking at the Falcon Bucoo micro line today. Was looking for a Medium/Fast rod and noticed that they only offer a medium/Moderate. Would the medium/moderate work for pitching out the plastics for trout? Also, which do you guys prefer between the falcon Bucoo micro and the castaway pro series?

AubreyLaHaye458 04-21-2015 08:52 PM
Keep in mind that Academy's selection is not always that great.

Very true my friend! I loved the feel of the Castaway Pro Series 7' Light/Moderate rod. But like others have said, I don't think it's going to be good for throwing out the matrix shads for specks and reds.

For tails... the light action should be perfect imo...

Tails are soft plastics on jig heads.

I held that rod you posted the pictures of earlier today and considered buying it as well to throw tails and may end up going back for it.

I went into academy today with my new shimano stradic ci4+ and tried them all out. In the end the waterloo 7' medium came home with me. Seemed to be lightweight and not so whippy as some others. Obviously your result may vary.

Personal preference. I like the bucco's parabolic action with 1/8 and 1/4 jigheads and small/medium crank baits.

I think it's a little too whippy for 1/2 oz jigheads and the heavier mirrolures or topwaters but that's why I have a medium heavy rod. It also doesn't pop a cork as well as a fast action rod.

Castaway...it was the last one with no price tag. They gave me a scan sticker that said $49.99, but when I checked out...it rang up as $39.99. Academy on the Westbank Expressway.

I admit I am partial, but I fish with TidalSurge rods. They no longer make them but still have some in stock at a great price - all with recoil guides.

HookSpit makes great rods as well and they have two separate price points: http://www.hookspit.com/shop/hookspi...sic-mlt-detail

Lastly, the Castaway Donk is another good option that won't break the bank:
