"I wouldn't dream of using another brand of rod," Mike said. "The quality and total detail of Falcon Rods is unsurpassed. I'm positive that the combinations of the blank, the Lite-Bite™ exposed blank reel seat, and the Alconite™ guides give it the best sensitivity and strength of any rod on the market. And the people at Falcon are great to work with."

Falcon Expert™ rods are famous for producing a rare combination of lightness, sensitivity and strength, because you never know when the fish of a lifetime is one. With Mike, it usually is.

The Expert™ Series includes casting rods in a wide variety of lengths and actions for freshwater and light saltwater applications. The Expert series combines the latest component technology from Fuji with a high modulus American-made blank at a reasonable price.

With the introduction of the LowRider™ Series in 1996, Falcon pioneered the use of low-profile single-footed guides to improve casting performance. The Expert™ series represents the next step in LowRider™ technology. Super-light and strong Alconite™ guides from Fuji are stronger and lighter than other SiC guides. Sensitivity is further enhanced by the use of Falcon’s Lite-Bite™ blank-thru reel seat.

Each Expert™ Series rod utilizes an American-made graphite blank exclusive to Falcon. This blank contains super-high modulus graphite to create a blank that is incredibly light yet strong. Falcon’s Expert™ technology improves sensitivity, increases casting distance, and reduces line abrasion.
