I wanted to post a quick review of the TFO I just bought. I got a 6'6" MH to update/replace a BPS Extreme that I have as my jig setup. My initial thoughts:
1. Much lighter for a MH than most that I have had with a ton of backbone. The overall weight is similar to my 7' M Veritas.
2. VERY sensitive.
3. Comfortable
4. Loads up well.
5. lifetime warranty
If you are on the fence go ahead and jump on it. I won't buy another sub $100 rod again.

I agree. Nice group of guys running the place!
You can avoid having ulcers by adapting to the situation: If you fall in the mud puddle, check your pockets for fish. ~Unknown
Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youre living.
No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

I use tactical and signature series and i love them. Never had a problem and super sensitive. Not to mention if u happen to stumble across a problem the customer service is the best you can find anywhere!

Title should be TFO GARY Loomis rods. G Loomis really has zilch to do with TFO besides being started by the same guy.

We just got the full line of signature series Gary Loomis TFO's at the Grapevine BPS. Each rod is $100. Around $120 with the Gear Guard.
Not only are they great rods, they are made here in America! Besides Falcon, American rods tend to be hard to find these days. It's even harder to find American reels...
