Move went fine. The new server is much faster. Which is good!

I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

I can't comment on the BPS Extreme spinning rods, I haven't owned one in a long time. I do have a couple TFO spinning rods, model FWS 664-1. They are 6'6" medium power rods, extra fast action, I think. They are very light, well balanced and have a very good finish. I have only used them a few times, no more than 3 or 4 times. For me, for what I bought them for, [ds and shaky head],  the action is a little too fast for a medium power rod. I like a slower action rod for those technics. But that's just me. I bought them two years ago and I don't think you had a choice on the action at that time. I don't know if that is still true.

Still, I am very impressed with the fit and finish and the overall quality. They "feel" right.

Peace.
It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.
