Comments: Purchased the 7'3", absolutely great rod, love the guides without a ring, super light and sensitive, Winn grips are great, skeleton seat super comfortable and sensitive, these are exactly as I'd build a rod, highly recommend!

Comments: I've been using TFO Rods for about 6 years. Decided to try out some of these "higher end" rods. So far I've had 3 break on me(all on fish) all within a foot-foot and a half from the tip. Very nice rods before I had them break but I wouldn't use these in a tournament when money is on the line. $60 replacement fee even if it isn't your fault. Lost a 5-6 year customer in less than a year.

Comments: I have a 7'3" MH fast action and talk about a all around awesome rod paired with a Daiwa tatula CT. Not to mention the titanium guides and the grips. I love this rod and plan on buying several of the elite series casting rods in the future.

Comments: Really like these rods. I have the spinnerbait rod, the mag bass med heavy, and the 7'4 cranking rod. They look awesome and are very sensitive. My only gripe is they are quite tip heavy and with moving baits it can wear on you after a long day of fishing.

Comments: Purchased one of these rods and was beyond excited to give it a try. Intially it felt great. Very lightweight and the Winn Grips are awesome. However, the guides do seem rather cheap for a rod at this price point. While the rod felt great using it, it broke midway down the blank on the first fish I caught with it. Contacted TFO for a warranty claim, and dispite having GoPro footage of the rod breaking on the hookset, I was told I would have to pay the replacement fee and shipping. Tossed it in the trash and moved on. Having to pay to replace a rod that I am not even sure has the ability to land a fish is absurd. For this price point, there are an array of rods that more than outperform these. Poor experience all around.

Comments: Best rods out there. I have switched over to all tactical bass elite rods. I have put them through the ringer. Everything from boat flipping giants to stepping on them on the deck. No failures. Best guides out there as well as the WINN grips.
