Temple Fork PRO Series

Frank,

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

I'm thinking of buying a Temple Fork PRO Series rod. They say this rod
competes with pricier rods. Is this true?

Well, last month I bought a St Croix Legend Ultra (hey, they're being
discontinued, so they're on sale) 4wt to replace my Loomis 4wt after
casting
the TFO Pro and a few others. It (the TFO) is a good rod and equivalent
to
the Loomis, but felt like it was "rattling." Today, at the Ft Washington
PA
fly show, I just cast and immediately bought the ADG Titanium 8' 4wt.
About
the same price as the TFO, but I was able to load the rod with 5' and 60'
of
line. It cast like a dream. I side-by-side tried it against T&T, Sage
and
Scott, IMHO, it beat them all.
I've never bought a rod on such short notice. This thing felt like
nothing
I've ever casted before. The designer and owner of the company, Mr. Ahn,
walked me through the construction, AFTER I HAD CAST IT. I was already
hooked. One telling thing was the number of vendors and guides that I saw
picking them up and using them in their casting demonstrations.
By the way, until today, I'd never heard of them and have no connection
with
the company. You might want to check them out. www.titaniumflyrods.com

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).

The Finn!!
