QUALITY
The TN Provo comes with a lifetime warranty, reflecting what we believe is the excellent quality of the product. The TN Provo is made of Japanese Intermediate Modulus (IM) carbon. IM carbon is more expensive to make than regular carbon and results in a lighter, stronger, and more sensitive rod. The carbon in the TN Provo is IM10 and IM8, balancing the two for optimal strength, sensitivity and weight.

CASTING GUIDE
The TN Provo works very well with the simple Lob Cast when throwing weighted nymphs or weighted presentations. Compared to other rods, however, the lob cast should be thrown with a bit more power - try tilting the rod further back when starting the lob to generate more energy on the cast. With heavy lines, such as the Kevlar furled line or the Daiwa PVC line, the Orbit Cast works great (the Bow Cast is also very effective with these lines). With all that said, there are many variables affecting casting, so experimentation and fine-tuning is the rule.
