[quote flygoddess]I have to say that the Professional was my choice with TFO. Actually I preferred it's action over St. Croix and Sage. Well Sage was more the $600+ price tag, but I still like the Medium action of the Pro.
But there was also limited 10' 5 weights at the time I bought it. I probably still would have bought the Pro.
I got out today on the Creek. Allot of over hanging trees so I prefer a 7'.
The 2 weight would have been fine for the fish size, but the rod is a 7'9" and that nine inches can get in the way. So, it was the good ol' Trout Bum.
Tried out my Sharkskin Trout 4 weight......LOVE IT!
