I'm not sure of the model, but the one from the Skeeter Owners tourney last year sure is a good rod, I was pleasantly surprised. I throw a big football head with it and it works good for me.

Love em! Texas based company out of Dallas. Great folks and great service.
I have everything from spinning rod, to heavy flipping to a 5 weight fly rod!
In the fly fishing community they are very well liked too.

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.

It is a really great rod for the price. They are really light weight and sensitive. I have been using them for the past three years and have not broke a rod or a guide with the exception of one time in which I bent the guide accidentally and tried to fix it and broke it but it was all my fault. If you buy one IMO you will really like it.

I have 15 of them. They are really good rods! Very sensitive with a lot of backbone. I use the Gary Loomis tactical series.

Loomis designed, Texas owned company, Korean made rod. I like them.
Have fished with both a signature and tactical and they are solid. The tactical series are lot lighter than the signature series and are more sensitive because of this. For equal money I prefer the Loomis designed and American built blank, Texas owned, Texas assembled KLX series from Kistler.

I have both the signature series and the tactical series. I love them!!! I had one randomly break on me while doing a roll cast...I called TFO and they are here in dallas and they replaced it for $35 bucks. They even threw in a hat and a window decal.
Great rods at a great price!

I have the hundred dollar model and like it. I will probably buy more . It's got good sensitivity and backbone. For the price it's great quality.

I have lots, mostly MH and H. Good price, good quality, durable, haven't broke one yet....but I have not been fishing with bigfishtx recently so that could explain my good fortune.....
I buy them and use them.
