Built with the hardcore angler in mind, the TFO Mangrove series utilizes
TFO’s proprietary TiCr blank coating, which helps protect the rod from
the occasional collision with a weighted fly, and TFO’s proprietary
Tactical Guides™ that are braid and saltwater safe...plus they can't
break or pop out like traditional ceramic guides. The unique non-glare
chestnut colored blank features a full wells grip with an instant rod
weight burled cork ID system, fighting butts and cleverly machined hook
keeps on each side of he aluminum up-locking reel seat. *TFO's Tactical
Guides are high-performance guides designed to withstand the most
rigorous fishing conditions while providing the ultimate in weight
savings. The guides feature super hard-chrome anodized, stainless steel
inserts pressed into a machined, hard-annodized, stainless steel frame
for extreme durability in both fresh and saltwater.
"Mangrove sticks were first seen in my
mind’s eye from the poling platform of my skiff as I watched anglers
struggle with fishing casts…realistic fishing casts within sight fishing
distances. Many saltwater fishing opportunities are fleeting and
require timely presentation of fly to fish. It’s not really so much the
number of false casts required to close the deal as it is how quickly
the angler can begin to feel the fly line and shoot the fly into the
area of awareness of a fish.
The rod and the casting abilities of each
angler have EVERYTHING to do with this. Super technical, magnum taper
rods are not always the right choice for all anglers in real fishing
situations. A rod that anglers can feel and that can re-present a
fishing cast (especially along shorelines) is what is often needed. This
is the genesis of the Mangrove family of TFO rods; they are, very
simply, fishing tools that have been developed slowly and carefully in
the crucible of real, honest fishing situations…not on a drawing board!
Grab hold of a Mangrove stick by TFO and see
just how much trouble you can get into."
