They are great if you can find some of the original ones from from like '05 era. They changed up the blank about the time the Cara T7 line came out. The new Experts where not as good or worth the price and lost favor and the line was dropped a few year later. I was in the Falcon offices last week and they offered to buy it back when they found out I still had one of them.

Question - Then why buy a chinese product especially when so many of the American brands have sold out or outsourced for cheeeep labor ? Falcon Rods get my vote & $$$ Team LVS34 Captain WNB

My wife caught this (http://texasfishingforum.com/forums/ubbt...ork#Post9416892) using a Falcon FS-UL-15 Ultra Lite action, 1/32 to 1/16 ounce, line weight 2-6 Lbs that was purchased probably earlier than 1994. She has caught Striper on that rod too. Nothing has ever gone wrong with it. I think I'm gonna start jigin' with it! TFF: Where all my fishing questions are answered - even before I ask!
