Developed through close consultation with Falcon pro-staffers, Experts are the latest step forward in precision tuned actions combined with the latest rod building technology. Constantly evolving through testing and feedback, the result is the ultimate in performance. To enhance power-to-weight ratio, we use CrossMatch, our all new, state-of-the-art composite of carbon whose multi-layer, cross-directional fibers boost strength while requiring less material and resin. The result is a rod thats significantly lighter, incredibly muscular, and considerably more sensitive. Other benefits include superior resistance to torsional deflection. In other words, the blank resists rollover or twist which can help increase cast accuracy. Like all Falcon rods, Expert Series components are 100% Fuji-from the reel seats to the tangle-free K Frame guides. Whether youre a tournament pro, or just fish like one, step up to the Expert Series.*Please note, eight foot rods like the “Tennessee Ledge” and “Rayburn Special” incur a $100 shipping surcharge which is included in the price.*
