There are better rods than the BVK in that price range. At least go cast a couple of rods before taking a ride on the BVK hype train.


Which ones? Don't mind going try some. TFO really isn't a hype train. I have used a few of theirs in lower weights for trout fishing. I like them even compared to some of my expensive rods. They have earned their cheap decent reputation.

I talking about the BVK hype, not TFO in general. I happen to like their glass and finesse rods. Other than that, I am not a fan. I've just seen too many BVK's break.

If I were going to spend $300 on a rod it sure as shite wouldn't be a BVK. I would be watching the message boards for a used 8wt or I would save up another $100 and buy a Recon.
