I'll be the one voice of dissent. I have a 9' 6 weight (4 piece). The craftsmanship is great, the price was great but I wish I had spent a decent amount of time casting one before I bought it. Since then I bought a St. Croix LU which I tested and I love it. The TFO just doesn't feel good to me. I know a fly shop that will give me 80 bucks for it on a trade in and I intend to that.
