Default New plug rod
Went to academy today,found a 6' 6" falcon bucco on sale for 79.95. It was the last one in stock so I had to grab it. Nice medium action perfect for topwater and plugs. Got some new sufix 832 braid,best braid I ever used! If you like braid you need to try it.

A buddy was havin' trouble feelin' the bite on the Causeway, so, I hooked him up with a Buccu and that problem is solved. He said he'd rather have a 6'6", tho.

i don't know i didn't call, wrong action.
