I have and use a lot of TFO rods, including some Pro and Pro 2 models. I do not consider them at all fast. They are great casting rods for delicate dry fly casting. Overlining is the last thing I would consider for them. The BVK series is quite a bit faster and a far better all-around casting rod but still not fast enough to overline, IMO. The line makes more difference than the rod.


I have 2 of the tfo ti crx rods for salt water and salmon fishing and they are definitely faster action in their series of rods
