Didn't mean to slight your place ... "pond" is a more affectionate
term than lake ...imho ;-)


I just need a functional decent rod under $200
2 piece would do


My TFO is the 2 piece .... story of how it came to join my army of
rods

I was fishing a large lake ( ... it used to be a pond back when it
was still a favored destination ;-) in NorCal with the Scott. I
tripped on my force Fins getting out of the tube, fell, and broke the
Scott. I was scheduled to be there another week and the only other
rods I had were much lighter ones that I use on streams. So, I got
in the truck and drove 60 miles to the Hardware/Sporting Goods store
where they had the TFO. I bought it thinking I was getting a
disposable rod or back-up. Turns out I like it a lot. I paid well
over $100 to get the Scott repaired but still use the TFO and now
think of the Scott as "back-up."

If you are buying for guests you can't possibly pick an action they
will like most, it will vary from guest to guest. As for bang for
the buck, I don't think you can beat the TFO ... ah with a stick ....
of any name.
