Description
Temple Fork Outfitters Mangrove Series Fly Rod
Temple Fork Outfitters™ enlisted Flip Pallot, host of The Walker's Cay Chronicles, to help create the TFO Mangrove Series Fly Rods. Built with the hardcore angler in mind, these 4-piece, travel-friendly rods sport TFO's proprietary TiCr blank coating, which helps to protect them from occasional collisions with a weighted fly. Besides being braid and saltwater safe, TFO's Tactical Guides can't break and pop out like ceramic guides. Other features include a unique non-glare, bronze-colored blank, a full wells grip with an instant rod weight burled cork ID system, fighting butt, and machined hook keeps on each side of the rod's aluminum up-locking reel seat. Mangrove Series Fly Rods offer superb feel and control for real, honest fishing situations. Offered in weights from 6-12.

Mangrove 8wtThis was my first fly rod purchase with the help of the guys at the fly shop. Perfect for what I wanted to fish for...bass, redfish, sea trout, black drum, sheepshead, bonefish and possibly a permit, I know I’d be holding on with the permit, but the rod has some backbone to it. It was easy for me to learn very quickly to cast my scientific anglers mastery redfish warm 8wt and in less than a few hours with the help of the guide I was able to get a few accurate 60ft casts my first time ever fishing a fly rod. I would call that a win in. Ironically I fished it in and around mangroves and after some getting used to...short and longer 50 ish foot casts became comfortable and predictable. Action is fast with a nice tip and solid backbone, few times keeping the bones out of the mangroves on the second run was needed and rod felt good.
Only reason not given5 stars because mine did not has the soft cloth cover . I plan on getting more in either 6/7 to have some more fun

HardcoreHave used the 10wt mangrove in some other then ideal conditions for fly fishing. Have used it mainly around docks for night fishing for tarpon and this rod has more then delivered. It has been put thru almost every changeling position possible and has continued to produce. There have been times that I have to double check cause I can not believe the rod did not brake due to the way it was bent. I'm sold on the TFO and the warranty sounds great but have yet to use it.

Buy oneI have the 7 wt and use it as my smallmouth bass rod. Handles streamers of any size great, as well as big poppers. I use the Rio smallmouth line with it. I have every intention of targeting some big browns with it soon as well.This thing is durable and just about casts itself. I'd love to get this model in other weights some day. I've fished the six weight and its awesome too as an all around rod. If I could only have one rod, I'd probably opt for the six weight Mangrove. Grab one of these if you want a durable, fast rod that will shine at realistic casting distance and be a blast to fish!

Buy oneI use the 7 weight as a streamer rod for Smallmouth Bass. It's the perfect rod for what I do. Very durable and enough backbone to handle whatever bites your fly. I highly recommend this one! The 6 wt is very nice too as a streamer, nymph, and dry fly rod for trout and as an all around rod.

What a backboneI have a 10wt I purchased over the winter and fish in some really rough areas and the rod has held up well. Even fishing from a bridge in Central Florida for Snook and Trout it has held its own. Wind...What wind? casts well with an Intermediate line.
Headed to the Peace River for some Tarpon and I feel confident with this in my arsenal

Breaks Like BVKIt was heartbreaking, really. Broke on the first cast of the trip and I had to fish with spinning gear all week. TFO's BVK rods are notorious for letting you down, but I was hoping for better with the Mangrove. Sure they'll fix it, but I'll never have confidence in a TFO rod again.

Great Saltwater RodPicked up two of these in a 8wt. Really like the way they feel. I have used rods that cost 5 times as much and these are just as good if not better. Anything TFO is great in my book.
