There are times when toughness is more essential than perfect casting.
Quite often, you will find yourself in this situation when you are pursuing
steelhead at Erie or N.Y. I can tell you from experience that most of your
casting is going to be roll casting. I can also tell you that your rod is going
to get "banged around". This is not a place for a fast rod with brittle
graphite that can cast 90ft. Did you ever try to cast an indicator and weight
with a fast rod that casts tight loops? You need to be able to cast open
loops in this situation and you need a rod that you can drop on the bank
and get tough with. Not an heirloom that casts 90ft.
The TFR series rod from TFO was made for handling these fish and it also
excels at casting sinking lines and large flies when the need arises. Of course,
you already know that great casting is built into every TFO rod.

| One of the reasons this rod is so affordable is that it's a two piece. Why pay for a four piece when you don't need it? I was amazed with the reserve power this rod has! You can buy extra tips for these rods so you never need to worry about your rod being gone! |
