I picked up the TFO BVK 8wt 9' 4 piece with the Nautilus ccfx2 black with green parts.

I rented a sage rod with a hatch reel and I have to say the Nautilus is a lot smoother and the BVK is a very comparable rod for half the price.

That is some really nice stuff. We could sure use you in the Fly Fishing club. (see fbbflyfishers.com). We meet every third Thursday as a club and have fly tying on the first Thursday. Love to have you come try us out.
