I just got my new setup in the mail today, my first 12 weight. Its a temple fork TiCr X 12 weight rod with a cabelas XXS reel. The rod casts INCREDIBLY well. I've been making 100 foot fly casts on my dock like its nothing. I didn't get a spare spool, but I have cortland 444 floating lazerline and cortland quick decent line.

Looks like a nice setup. I've been thinking of getting a new 10 WT soon but haven't had the funds.

I've had that same rod for a year now. I like it a lot. I'm considering buying a 9wt ticrx now since my 9wt got smashed to pieces.

I love my Temple Forks for the money...Good to cast, pretty durable.I have broke 2 of them where the 2nd guide down from the tip flexes so much when your casting/loading the rod , such that the "guide" actually snaps...I sent them back to Temple Fork and they sent me new pieces for both of them  ( 6 and 8 weights)....
