Temple Fork PRO Series

Remind me to take a cast or two with that new rod (I'm assuming your
bringing it to Penns). Sound's interesting.

Does "cold dead fingers" mean anything to you? :-) No problem. Will let
you play.

With your history, on any given day, the probability of that happening to
you would be significantly more then just about anyone in the U.S. so either
way may be an option.

I could also just stay down stream from you and wait for the Full Reid to
happen so I could steal a few casts until you dragged yourself back out of
the water (sorry, couldn't let that one slide).

Thank you, John


If the Pro is their TiCr rod, it's a fast, powerful rod. It's decently
finished, not like a Winston or a T&T but comparable to a Sage. The rod
case it comes in is worthless.

That's puzzling. My TiCR came with a quite adequate aluminum tube.

Hi All,

The TFO or Temple Fork Outfitters fly rods are by the Spring Brook Company
in Dallas, TX.

They have 3 different series:

Series 1: these are in 2 piece models from $89-$99 USD

Professional: these are in 4 and 6 piece models and Spey from $139 - $299

TiCr: this is their top series in 4 piece mostly from $199 - $249

http://www.templeforkflyrods.com/

Right now they have the hottest low to mid-priced fly rods in the US. They
are made over seas at competitive costs so they can offer good quality at
low prices.

They are competing more with St.Croix (USA), Redington, Echo, Cabelas,
Cortland and other high volume, low cost fly rods.

I don't think they would even compare their rods to the high end models of
Sage, G.Loomis, Winston, T&T or Scott.

I carry all these rods (accept Cabelas) in my fly shop. Sage and TFO are our
best sellers as of this date.

I am the happy owner of three of the Professional series rods. I think a
prospective buyer should cast one of them to see how they like it. I know Rick
Pope and he runs his business thje way I would run my own business. He is the
only owner of a rod company I have ever met who told me to try his rod and if I
did not like it to buy someone else's rod. I like that attitude. The 8.5 foot 3
weight rod is my current favorite 3 weight rod.
