The rod hass been discontinued and I may have to wait another 5 to 10

I do not need a top of the line rod *as this rod will be used by
guests, some inexperienced.

I bought an 8 wt TFO rod for Hawaii
It's a good rod and relatively inexpensive.

Does anyone have a critique of either rod?
Or can suggest another?

Thanks

I have a $90 TFO 6 wt that is my stillwater rod of choice .. I have a
Scott and a custom made Stefen vying for that position, both cost much
more.

Busted the TFO once .... $25 dollars and a very short time later it
was back, good as new.

NOTE: you are not going to impress anyone with the finish quality of
the TFO but leave impressing to those big Bows in yer pond ;-)
