Flippin Stick : Falcon Cara vs. Shimano Crucial

Featured Replies

Most of the lakes I fish tend to be deeper and clear but here lately I've been fishing some places where a decent Flippin rod would be a nice addition to my rod locker.   I realize there are many options out there and the prices are all over the map.   I would be willing to spend around $150 give or take $10 or so.    Right now I am eyeballing the Shimano Crucial Flipping Cast Rod 7'11" Heavy (CRC-X711H) and the Falcon Cara Flipping Rod 7'6" H (CC-6-276TH).  

I like the idea of a little more length on the Crucial but I have only used lighter weight Crucial rods designed for finesse fishing so I am in uncharted water using a Crucial that is a lot stouter.   I've owned quite a few Falcon rods in the past and they have served me very well.  

Has anyone been able to compare both of these rods on the lake and can give me some recommendations?
