Talked with the fly shop gentleman at the bass pro shop about a few of the different TFO , Sage , St.Croix rods and combo's TFO Pro-2 , Signature-2 and a couple others . Will be able to actually set up the various combos and take them out side and see which feels the best to me , as he said to me it will be your rod , he does fish a couple of the TFO rods himself and spoke very highly of them as well . Talked about a 9' 5wght 4pc w/ a BVK reel , backing weight forward line case all this comes with the TFO combos, as well as a couple sage combos . I do know the guy as well so that will be a plus , he also stated that we will go over the various actions and dosen't want to set me up with a broom stick or a buggy whip . So next good weather we have get to go play and see what I can come up with . Thanks to all for your help as well .
