TFO Blitz Fly Rod
TFO Blitz Fast-Action Fly Rod — built for surface “blitz” feeds
When bait is boiling and fish are exploding on top, you need a rod that loads fast and puts a fly exactly where it needs to be. The TFO Blitz was engineered by anglers from both coasts to chase hard-charging, high-speed species. It picks up line quickly and fires tight loops with intermediate, sink-tip, or full-sinking lines—perfect for pushing big streamers and bulky topwater flies at distance.
A fast action with mid-stiff power helps carry heavy shooting heads and weighted patterns without collapsing. Thanks to TFO’s Axiom technology—high-modulus carbon reinforced by a double-helix of Kevlar—the blank damps instantly, stays stable through the stroke, and shrugs off over-loading so you can carry more line or hit it harder without the “mushy” feel.
Premium components round it out: full-wells cork grips with fighting butts, a silver fully-anodized aluminum reel seat with integrated hook keeper, color-coded alignment dots by line weight, REC RECOIL guides, and ultra-light hard-chromed stainless snake guides. Blanks are finished in deep turquoise with dark blue wraps and silver trim. Each rod ships in a labeled sock and protective tube.
Bottom line: the Blitz series is purpose-built for distance, accuracy, and fast recoveries during true blitz conditions—and it’s backed by TFO’s no-fault lifetime warranty. Fish the Original.
