Temple Fork bass rods

I walked into Southwestern the other day,and they showed me the new Temple Fork bass rods they just got in....Temple Fork is in Dallas and has Gary Loomis make thier blanks...They only made fly rods from what I understood,but these were split handle bass casting and spinning rods....They looked and felt really nice!!...Very classy looking..They were color coded on the blank between the grips...The color lets you know the power of the rod ..Its was like burgandy and dark gold that I remember...

The best part $99.00

ahhh I found it!!....Heres the link

I own a couple of Temple Fork flyrods. Good rods. Those look interesting and a good price to boot.

Tfo makes good fly rods, but if you cast one all day with a nymph rig your arm will fall off, just too heavy. I sold mine and went with a sage z-axis, but these look pretty nice for the price. I did love the cork and hardware on my tfo for the price.

I've got a TF 8 wt fly rod. Really nice rod for the price. I wouldn't be afraid to try one of their bass rods.

Wow, great looking rods, can you get them from retailers like bass pro, cabalas, and tackle warehouse?

What ever the case, great looking rods, and I wouldn't hesitate to buy one...... if I had money!

Thank you very much for posting this. Those look like great rods. And $99? That's sweet for a Loomis blank!

Oh yeah, could you post a link to somewhere we could actually buy these rods? Please correct me if I'm wrong, but i don't think there's a way to actually get one off the site you posted. I'm very interested in getting my hands on one of these. Thanks a bunch.
