ok guys need a little help deciding on which rod to get. Right now I am looking at the BPS carbonlite or a Falcon bucoo. it'll be paired with either a Chronarch or a Curado so if anyone has had experience with either, any info would be great.

Both are good rods. I like falcon rods better. But I have the cara t7 which cost just a little more, but the warranty is great. And the weight of then are nice when you fish all day and there so lite. And the feel is great. Im now getting all falcon cara's and pretty much throwing my other rods out. And have fell in love with ABUs revo sx and now getting them and throwing out my old reels. the bucoo has a one year warranty from what i heard. i was going to buy buccoo then get to thinking about if i break it on a hook set then what. buy other then i have 200 in it. when i can pay that one time and have a life time warranty. for 20.00
I have both. Guess it depends on your use. I use the Carbonlite for worm (MH X-fast) and the Bucco for cranks. I discovered what I read on bassboat central to be true on the Bucco. If you want a M, then get the MH, want a MH, then get the H. Both are nice rods for the money in my opinion.

why wouldn't you just buy a shimano rod and not have to worry about where you bought it or where you have to return it (over the counter warranty anywhere in the country)and thats on there entire line not matter who cheap or expensive
i emailed falcon and the bucoos have a 5 year warranty. Guess it will just be an impulse buy since they are both really light.Both are good rods. I like falcon rods better.

Falcons are made in USA if it comes down to it.
I know it wasnt a choice....but I have the carbonlite and it is ok....but I prefer the Skeet Reese rods to the Carbonlite and they have a lifetime warranty. They replaced 2 that I broke the tips off ....my fault not the rod.
For what ever its worth, I purchased a carbonlite with micro guides. After one fishing trip I returned it. Great feel, good sensitivity, but chewed up my florocarbon line when fighting/landing a fish. I took it back and got the Bucoo and glad I did, nice feeling rod and plus it is made in USA. After returning the carbonlite, I checked the customer reviews in Bass Pro online catalog and found my experience wasnt just a fluke. I now look the reviews on anything I think I may want to buy, whether I plan to buy from BP or anywhere else.
+1 on Veritas, I got the medium 7' on Friday, it is nice. Plus for $9.95 S+H you can get a Abu Garcia hoodie. It's on their website.
ended up getting a Falcon Bucoo 6'10 MH this afternoon. its really light and much more sensitive then my carbonlite. the 5 year warranty is pretty **** good as well. thanks for all the advice even if i didnt use it on certain rods.
