The Tailwaters team recently spent a few days on the upper Illinois, in search of Smallmouth, with the Trout Boat Cap’n, Brett Lowry. On his home waters and in his drift boat, Brett strictly fishes TFO Rods. The boys wasted no time recognizing this was THE opportunity to put the new TFO Legacy Rod to work alongside the perfect guide to talk all things TFO.
Every Single TFO Model is NOW AVAILABLE in store at Tailwaters. The original Rod Company to Offer the Right Tools at a Sound Price.
“The gear I rely on is built around dependable, durable equipment that can adapt to changing river conditions throughout the season. My standard setups of TFO rods, give me the versatility to fish everything from topwater poppers in the summer to streamers in deeper water during the spring and fall. By keeping multiple rod weights rigged, I can quickly adjust to changing conditions and put my clients in the best position for success.” - Brett Lowry
