Had limited success on Saturday, I was targeting "bream" with my TFO 2 weight fly rod when this bass decided my small fly was what he wanted, sorry no sound as I thought I could add it on You Tube but that was is longer available.

A couple of times there I thought I was about to hear a rod CRACK! Beautiful fish.

Thanks for the replies, yes watching the video makes me cringe when I saw myself assisting with the left hand above the handle, not the best thing to do. That fish really pulled hard.

Thankyou, the two weight would have hard time landing your signature catch, well done to you.

Thanks Linecaster...caught that one on my baitcaster before I converted over to fly fishing. TFO rod seems to have done a great job on the one you caught!

For me fly fishing is it. I have no more conventional tackle any more.
I may pay the price for that rod bend later. That 2 weight rod is my favorite for bream. TFO are good rods with a lifetime warrenty.

Yessir...haven't picked up my conventional gear since I caught my first fish on the fly this year. I purchased my first TFO rod as well and couldn't be happier with it.

Great to see you out there and looks like you did ok. I was one of the other kayakers out there. I was in the Sand colored one. That was a great catch with the bass!

Thank you, is that kayak a new one? It looked great, 11 foot?
