Got my tfo 2wt today, leftys finesse rod with a orvis battenkill bar stock and scientific anglers GPX line, casts sooooooo smooth, fishin with it tomorrow at table rock lake in Branson. you like that reel? still new to fly fishing....but orvis makes pretty good stuff huh? A reply to both above: The LK finesse with a BK Barstock would be my choice if I were to wake up from a successful dream. The BK Barstock just has that classic sound and feel that I envisioned when I was a boy reading "Field and Stream" Hard for a working stiff to afford a much better rod than a TFO of almost any weight...but the Finesse is a superb fishing partner.
He leadeth me beside still waters.

What a great choice of outfits. My little 3 weight finesse rod is my favorite of all my 3 weight rods and I don't think you could chose a better reel for that rod than a Battenkill Barstock. My Battenkill Barstock currently has one of the old Courtland peach colored double taper lines on it. What a classy way to swing a soft hackle fly in a little stream. My rod is most often used with a psychedelic spider,a cap spider or a small cone head wooley bugger.

Went to TFO today to replace or get fixed the butt section of my rod that broke. Walked into the warehouse and became giddy. School girl giddy. Anyway, not only did they replace the piece with a new one, and apologize copiously, I got a free TFO hat to boot. They also told me the new rods reached the warehouse TODAY!!!! Am in the market for a new 8wt and it will most definitely come from TFO!! TFO for life(I'm making a gangland hand symbol)  Or I'm dancing. That's cool to. Ive been in my backyard already this morning casting my new 6-8 wt TFO Mini-Mag Agreed - Please sir may I have another.......TFO rod that is Since you are in the market for an 8wt, you might want to check out the new Mini-Mag great cast with a 210 grain line even better with a 240.
