I recently purchased a 7' medium bucoo micro and I think it's the lightest most sensitive rod I've ever owned. Anyone else I big fan of these rods. Thinking of switching to all bucoo's. Any good or bad info would be appreciated.
I dont fish for a living but i LIVE TO FISH!

I have 3 bucoos and love them! Not much difference in sensitivity from my Caras.

Ive switched the majority of my rods to Bucoo and Bucoo micro. Im a big megabass lure fan and I ordered the new Levante rod expecting greatness. Returned it. Bucoos feels so much better to me I find myself reaching for them even over my MUCH more expensive rods.
I have probably a dozen or so, but my favorite action is the 7' MH. It's great for pretty much everything. In 5 years I've broken 1 (my fault) and Sam at Falcon had a replacement sent to me within the week.

Same here. Falcon rods are some of the lightest out there. I like my Bucoo's as well as my Cara's. Haven't had a single issue out of anything Falcon makes.

They really are some of the best value rods on the market. As good as many $200+ rods I've used.

Got a brand new (almost) Bucco 6'6" MH I would trade for an Abu Garcia Veritas 2.0 of the same spec. Not a real fan. Too wimpy for me fishing plastics

They are good. Used to have a few of them. My experience has led me to spend a little more and get Megabsss Levante rods. Far better built and tougher. Without sacrificing weight or sensitivity.

I bought the same rod a while back- returned it for a 7'0 and have enjoyed it.

I own 3 Falcon Bucco rods. One of the most versatile rods is the 7ft 2in Micro MH. I throw swim jigs, topwaters, weightless plastics, and 1.5's on it. They make a Trap Caster which is probably one of the best rods for lipless baits and works well with spinnerbaits.
