Well as some of you know I used to be a owner of a Orvis Superfine 1wt Carbon rod. Well it just didn’t suit my casting style. Being a very nice rod just didn’t seem to fit me. So with there 100% satisfaction guarantee, I returned it. I went back to my tried and tested and found to be worth TFO Finesse1 wt. I paired t with the BattenKill I reel and the Superfine 1wt line. It arrives vex to the house on Tuesday and I was on the water yesterday before work. I stopped at Tinker Creek in Roanoke. Fished for about an hour or so with the 1wt line. Managed a few.
This was my first fish of 2018. Hopefully many more to come. Being true to it’s form, I left and headed to the store. The 1wt Superfine line just didn’t have what it takes to to be ad the TFO Finesse rod. I picked up a 2 wt Superfine line that will work out just fine. I have always up lined my 2wt finesse rods in the past and the 1 is no different it seems. The stockers here in VA are bigger than the ones I’m used to from Tx.
