So, whether its casting indicators, or multi-fly rigs from a drift boat, or bait fish patterns to the bank all day the Blue Ribbon series is engineered to deliver cast after cast with ease.
The Blue Ribbon series is constructed with intermediate modulus carbon fiber material and finished in a chestnut brown color with premium cork grips. The light weight up-locking solid brushed aluminum reel seats include an integrated hook keeper and have carbon fiber inserts.

My wife was jealous of my Orvis Recon, so bought her this TFO 10 ft 4 wt. Overall, it seems the equivalent of my Orvis rod at half the price. Very light in hand, casts well, soft tip. Finish is also very good. This is a great rod for the cost, actually for any price.
