Thanks James! Just bought two TI rods for my brother and myself. Can't wait to get them in the mail! Now just got to test out some reels and I'll be ready to go!


Which rods did you choose??

Hey. I chose the 8'6 xxh and the 8'6 xh rods from TI. They should be here this week!

TI rods I don't know. Stiff as a broom and the idea of having thicker handles and length of 18.5 will sure make a figure a work out. Not sure where the idea of thicker handles and comfortable came from. And length of handle sure makes transition from one side to the other awkward. Recommend Okuma Evx perfect handle size and diameter. IMO

I'm sure that everyone who loves a nice limp rod and short handle when working a fish boatside will agree with you.
Also, what you're saying about TI's stiffness contradicts several past posts stating that TI's are actually a little on the softer side when it comes to action.
Lastly, you should try and sell your rod on the Buy,Sell, Trade board.
Best of luck!
