    Falcon Bucoo SR 7’ UL Spinning Rod

    I got one of these with ambitions of using for drop shot, Ned rig, and Shakey head. Has anyone used this rod? If so, what thoughts can you share on its performance?

    IMO (others may differ) of the three above techniques only the Ned rig will work with this rod. Ultra Light power with a moderate Slow action. I am basing my opinion that drop shotting I like a ML power/ extra fast action for a drop shot. I can't see this rod being able to penetrate the plastic with the hook burried in the plastic on a Shakey head. Usually a medium power/ extra fast or fast action for Shakey head. I have the Bucoo Cranker Spin rod and while it wouldn't be my first choice for the three techniques, I believe I could fish all three with it. IMO you have a dandy crappie/ bream rod.
