I like the falcon buccu rods. Have four 6 footers and three 5 footers. Tough rods. Feel awesome. Strong. Sensative. Backed by awesome warranty. I have a couple longe Ozark rods that are really nice too. Just picked up a B&M Sharpshooter this last weekend and its actually very nice to. I will have the Falcon and B&M rods at blackwell this weekend if you want to try them out. Throw some Viscous line the reel and you will be set
