Hi
I fish with Orvis, T&T and Sage rods. I'm thinking of buying a Temple Fork PRO Series rod. They say this rod competes with pricier rods. Is this true?

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 -- Frank Reid Reverse email to reply |

My titanium that cost me $500 is many times better than my tfo that cost me $89. |

Frank,
Remind me to take a cast or two with that new rod (I'm assuming your bringing it to Penns). Sound's interesting. "Frank Reid" moc.deepselbac@diersicnarf wrote in message ...
