TFO weighs in at 3.2 oz, think either would be a perfect match for my TFO pro 8' 2wt. Or something around that weight? Just let me know.

Well, decided to go ahead and just order a TFO 1 reel. Should TFO Pro very nicely, once it arrives, I'll post pictures in the 2012 rods post and hopefully a fishing report as well.

I didmt actually get the TFO 1 reel. I ended up getting the TFO BVK 3/4/5. After some work on mt TFO Pro 8' 2wt it actually balances out perfectly. Removed the grip and reel seat and replaced it tith a better quality cork that I turned down to a smaller diamiter, and maple and aluminum up locking reel seat. Love the BVK reel. Wish I could afford to put them on my other rods as well.

Cool! Would love to see a photo. And if anyone is familiar with the TFO 1 reel, I'd appreciate hearing from you.

Pat, I've got a TFO 1 clicker and it's a pretty reel silver gun metal finish-i'll try and post up some photos soon.
