Default Falcon Rods

I didn't want to further hijack the Waterloo thread.

I just got off the phone with Jake at Falcon. He still has some Cenderi rods left (casting and spinning) @ a closeout special of $100. This is a high-end blank with titanium guides...the whole nine yards. It's the same blank as the $250 Cara. This is alot of bang for the buck.

Also, I've received alot of e-mails asking about a Falcon prototype. Well, it's out. It's called the BuCoo. It's a split-grip blank and, at 3.7 oz., it's one of the lightest on the market. It comes in 6'6", 6' 10" and 7'. They're not in stores yet so if you wanna be the first you gotta call and tell 'em Salty sent ya. You won't believe the price. Ask for Jake.

I think he said $100. Don't quote me, tho. We talked about alot of rods.

Y'all can ask Bruce about the BuCoo.

http://www.falconrods.com/bucoo.html

looks nice, i just don't need another rod right now

they are 99-110

the expert looks better, has the same reel seat as the waterloo and all cork

i called and they said the bucoo was lighter than the cenderi but maybe not the expert....it's not a new blank either....

i am fraught with skepticism.....

You can't even buy a Low Rider or Coastal for $100. The Original is damn near $100. That Cenderi is a steal.

The Cara and Cenderi are the same blanks and guides. Why would anyone buy a Cara when you can get a Cenderi for 1/2 price?

I'm not claiming that these rods are better than a Waterloo. Like I stated before...I've never seen a Waterloo. I'm saying that, for the money, you can't go wrong with the Cenderi. Jake is already back ordering the BuCoo so they will be hot.

my guess is -cara has a split grip and cenderi doesn't


that split grip looks awesome
