Quick take
A 6'10" medium-heavy casting rod with fast action and multilayer carbon fiber construction, suited for finesse jigs and flipping presentations.
The Falcon BuCoo BRC-5-1610 Finesse Jig is a one-piece, 6'10" casting rod with a fast action, aimed at bass anglers working jigs and other finesse presentations. It pairs multilayer cross-directional carbon fiber with Fuji guides and reel seats, and a split EVA grip keeps the handle light. Suited to line of 10 pounds and up, it fits anglers who want a sensitive baitcasting stick for cover and open water.
