New For 2005 and yes I love these new editions. These rods are very lightweight but are still very strong in getting those big catches of the day or night, Where does the name TS and TF come from, well TF has rods featuring an EVA foam for rear grip to make life more comfortable for the angler and TS Rods utilize Penns nice slick butt which are durable and can be easily removed from the rod holder. So put the TS and the TF together and you have well pure heaven.
