    Falcon Expert All-Around

    Anyone have this rod? Falcon website says it’s a cranker but It doesn’t feel like one to me. What do you use yours for?

    I’m waiting on my local shop to get a Head Turner in but looked at the All Around there today. I really like the full cork handle. Depending on what It could be used for, I’m really considering replacing one of my lesser used rods to get one.
    From falcon:

    One of our most popular actions makes a great crankbait rod, but can do almost anything

    The rod I would replace is a Daiwa Tatula Elite Brent Ehrler Finesse AGS 7’ M-MH XF 1/8-1oz

    When It gets used it’s typically for senkos (weightless and very light weight)
    , fluke/caffeine shad w/ 3/32 screwlock, underspin, dark sleeper, Sleeper gill. Things like that.

    I use the all around for swim jigs , but last trip out just for giggles I tied a 1/2 jackhammer on it and was blown away how well it fished it ! The all around is a great rod for many things , you won’t be disappointed !
