I know the bucco is a brand new rod so there might not be much imput but I was wondering what the comparative advantages/disadvantges to the falcon bucco and falcon original as I am looking into buying a new rod in this price range.  Also, what are the advantages of the exposed reel seat and what do you prefer?

Thanks

Is the rod even on the market yet ?

    I have only seen it at one store which is TexasBassTackle.com.

    I would go with the Bucco.  Even though I haven't fished it before I love exposed reel seats because they add a little bit more sensitivity in my mind.  Also the Bucco looks better  .

I havent used the bucco but i am an original owner and love it. its one of my favorite rods.

Just looked at the Bucoo it looks cool. the ONLY thing i dont like is the foam. I personally like cork. Other than that its awsome. and the foam thing wouldnt stop me from buying one for good falcon quality and performance.

i believe that it is correctly spelled BuCoo and pronounced "boo-koo" (which is urban slang for much, a lot)

people saying "boo-koo" drives me nuts because people spell it "beaucoup," which is french and is pronounced "bo-koo" not "boo-koo". The "eau" forms the "o" sound. I know everybody uses "boo-koo" as slang but it grates on my nerves lol. As the kung-fu master in Kill Bill said, "It causes my ears great discomfort."

Anyway, the rods do look awesome and at that price point I think they might sell better than the mojo.
