WHAT THEY’RE SAYING ON WWW.FIELDANDSTREAM.COM
“Some companies, before the invasion of MBA’s, sought quality over quantity. I have a T&T Paradigm, LPS and Horizon. Unlikely I’ll ever get rid of any of them.”
We make rods for enthusiasts because that’s what we are. We just don’t have many customers who are occasional fly fishers. This fact is supported by Field & Stream’s recent report that T&T ranks number three in terms of the rods used to capture IGFA world records. You may not find this remarkable – we’ve been making the world’s finest rods for well over forty years. But consider that we have only ever sold a small number of rods per annum compared to the brands that occupy the positions around us.
Serious anglers seek out serious equipment. We are proud that, more often than not, their search leads them to Thomas & Thomas. Prouder still that our warranty registration cards tell us that once a customer chooses a T&T they go on to purchase many more (we’re not going to tell you how many because you might worry our rods are too addictive).

WE MAKE RODS FOR STREAMS We believe small streams and spring creeks represent the very essence of fly fishing. An up close and personal experience with native trout evolved to the maximum with anti-predator awareness. Thomas & Thomas builds small stream rods to deliver precise, delicate presentations at close range. Rods that cast in a way that you will feel, but the trout won’t – at least until its too late.
WHAT THEY’RE SAYING ON WWW.WASHINGTONFLYFISHING.COM
“It’s the T&T hands down. Superior rods not only in casting but in fishing. Go cast one, you’ll see what I mean. Especially the Helix - the sweet spot on that rod is nine feet long. Absoluuuuut Butter.”

ESP Extra sensory presentations for confined spaces. When the conditions call for precision and finesse, add a sixth sense to your casting arsenal. This is a rod series for babbling brooks, rich chalk streams and technical spring creeks. The ESP feels light in the hand and flexes with minimal haul for smooth, controlled casts at short and medium distances. In confined spaces, the rod’s action will enable anglers to get creative with roll casts and ‘bow and arrow’ target shooting. If longer presentations are required the ESP possesses plenty of reserve power—and backbone to handle bigger fish. The detail: Clear graphite blank, western grip, milled aluminum, up-locking reel seat, tiger maple spacer. Model

The medium action facilitates quick, precise presentations at short range and transmits a comfortable level of ‘feel’ even with a short line. Should the need arise to place a longer cast upstream, you will find the Helix possesses plenty of reserve yet still delivers the fly with satisfying finesse.

WE MAKE RODS FOR RIVERS We know larger rivers present even larger challenges. Longer casts, bulkier flies, stronger winds. The performance of you and your rod will determine how well you overcome them. For rivers, Thomas & Thomas builds crisper rods for lazer-like accuracy without ever sacrificing the ability to cushion the connection between light tippets and large fish.
LPS II The medium action feel and accuracy of our legendary LPS – now in a four-piece rod. Designed specifically for the stealth and delicacy that highly technical trout fisheries demand. Wherever extremely wary fish are rising in smooth, glassy water, you will find the conditions for this rod series to excel. LPS II rods handle long leaders and accurately deliver dry flies at all distances, providing the ultimate experience in feel and control. Sensitivity in the upper sections of the LPS II makes it a versatile tool, perfectly able to make the transition to small nymphs or streamers when conditions dictate.
Helix Medium action for casters that seek maximum feel. In the mid line weights the Helix series is tailor-made for dry fly fishing. The medium action facilitates quick, precise presentations at all but the furthest distances and transmits a comfortable level of ‘feel’, even with a short line. Should the need arise to place a longer cast upstream you will find the Helix possesses plenty of reserve yet still delivers the fly with satisfying finesse. The detail: Dark blue blank, western grip, up-locking pewter reel seat, bubinga wood spacer.

WHAT THEY’RE SAYING ON GINKANDGASOLINE.COM
“An old friend is back in town. Thomas & Thomas - under new management, is back at IFTD 2011 with some truly inspired new offerings. First let me say that every T&T rod we cast impressed us but our recommendation is the 9’ 5 wt ‘No Sanctuary’. The first time this rod loaded I thought WOW. This 4 piece feels and casts like a 1 piece. It has the power to cast to the backing and the delicacy you need for a spring creek. Its the closest thing to perfection I’ve cast.”
NS Fast action, distance rods for big water and big fish. Thomas & Thomas launched the NS in a 5 weight for the 2012 season and it quickly established itself as our number one seller for the year. For 2013 we have added a six weight. We’ve enjoyed some amazing correspondence from customers in awe of the capabilities of these rods. Evidently big water trout anglers recognize the benefits inherent in the design. The NS is a special rod – light and thin but with incredible power thanks to its multi modulus design. With the new 6 weight we expect the NS to move beyond big water trout applications and become a favorite with small summer salmon and steelhead anglers as well. The detail: Dark olive blank, western grip, up-locking clear anodized reel seat, black spacer.
SSS Medium fast action, tailored for the challenges of big dry flies and anadromous fish. With two handed rods seemingly ubiquitous on many famous salmon and steelhead rivers, at times it seems as though single handers have been forgotten. That’s not the case here at Thomas & Thomas. The ‘Salmon & Steelhead Special’ is our reminder to salmon and steelhead junkies to ‘try the dry’. The SSS rods are designed for delivering big bugs, bombers and wulffs with allimportant accuracy. The medium fast action facilitates smooth, controlled casts, even with highly wind resistant flies. Strength in the lower sections of the rod enables good hook setting and authoritative fish fighting. The 9’6” configuration is the optimum length to assist in deep wading situations but still enable a rod that has the strength for powerful migratory fish. The detail: Natural grey graphite blank, full wells grip, anodized black up-locking reel seat.

WE MAKE RODS FOR THE SALT Nowhere are the demands on the angler and his tackle more acute than in saltwater. Delivering fast, accurate casts to moving targets in howling winds is often the order of the day. It’s arguably the most difficult challenge in fly fishing and one that is dear to Thomas & Thomas’s heart. From our center of excellence in Islamorada, Florida we develop rods that edge the odds in favor of the angler. Rods with the power to deliver the fly, set the hook and fight the fish – ruthless, uncompromising rods.

Horizon II Medium fast action, a stalwart that keeps getting the job done. The HII could be described as the rod series that refuses to go away. Each year we discuss removing it from our catalog and placing it on ‘special order’ status. And then we look at the numbers and recall the many conversations we have had that year with saltwater flyrodders that feel this is the best saltwater fly rod ever designed. Under normal circumstances we avoid making such hyperbolic claims, but the Horizon II just attracts over-the-top accolades – the striper crowd love it for its lifting power, permit guys dig the way it enables them to open up their loops and lob heavy crab flies, tarpon anglers appreciate its ability to load in close for cloudy day shots and yet still power out a full fly line if desired, bonefishermen feel it enables them to feather in bead eyed flies to tailers in a way that stiffer rods don’t . . . . the list goes on. The detail: Dark blue blank, full wells grip, up-locking black anodized reel seat. TNT Ultra fast action windcheater for advanced casters. As saltwater anglers we endure a love-hate relationship with the everpresent wind. You know it and we know it – the biggest fish get caught on the windiest days. The new Thomas & Thomas TNT Saltwater Series is designed to ensure that you are equipped to deliver heavy flies in to relentless winds with an unprecedented level of power and accuracy. And if the fish changes course simply pick it up, shoot in to the back cast and lay it back out. This is a rod for advanced casters and die-hards of the flats. If you pray that tomorrow your favorite weather girl calls for clear skies and 20 mph winds then you owe it to yourself to check out the TNT series – pure dynamite.

WE MAKE RODS FOR TWO HANDS Overhead, Switch, Skagit, Scandi or Spey. Whatever your preferred flavor. Are two hands really better than one? The answer is definitely – sometimes. Thomas & Thomas has been at the forefront of North American development in this field since the introduction of our double handed rods in the 1980’s. Many of the most advanced casters in the world have name-checked T&T as the best two handed rods around. We design rods for energy efficiency enabling you to cover big water in search of big fish – the fish of a thousand casts. Long heads or short heads, on top or down deep, we design rods that allow you to paint the pool one smooth stroke at a time.
Switch Medium fast action for effortless casting with one or two hands.
DNA Classic progressive action in a new generation of spey rod.
The Switch movement continues to gather momentum and as a fly fishing category we can now firmly state that Switch is here to stay. With this in mind we’ve beefed up our Switch series. Each new model comes in a four-piece configuration and offers a level of feel and versatility that will appeal to trout, steelhead and salmon anglers alike. These rods offer a moderate fast action for effortless single and double handed casting. The culmination of two years of experimentation by T&T rod designer, Tom Dorsey, our prototype models have already found favor among trout nympher’s, summer steelheader’s and in the case of the 11’6” 7 weight, as the perfect rod for Atlantic salmon fishing from the canoe - Canadian style.
The DNA action is a classic, progressive design, inspired by T&T’s original DH series. The highly regarded DH1307-3 and DH1409-5 rods were used as the benchmark for the development of these new DNA blanks. By taking advantage of recent developments in materials, we’ve achieved the same smooth actions in a significantly lighter, slimmer bank and multi-piece configurations that perform like three-piece rods. We recommend the DNA action for anglers seeking two handed rods that will do it all – skagit, scandi, spey, and overhead - with ease. The DNA is the perfect ‘all rounder’ and the best choice for experienced casters fishing mid belly length lines and longer.

“The Thomas & Thomas Double Handed rod is an utter delight to cast. If you don’t have one you are missing a wonderful experience.”
DNA-XF Faster tip action for effortless touch and go casting.
DNA-XD Launch skagit heads with authority with this new deep loading taper.
This ‘extra fast’ design flexes more in the upper and less in to the butt sections. It produces a crisp, sharp feel that is perfect for throwing tight loops with a short casting stroke. We especially like this action for throwing floating and intermediate ‘scandi’ heads for salmon and steelhead and for overhead casting for stripers in the surf. As such we recommend the DNA-XF action for anglers who predominantly fish near the surface and enjoy Scandinavian underhand ‘touch and go’ styles of casting. It is also the recommended action for long distance overhead casting.
The ‘extra deep’ action is designed to be stiffer in the tip and fuller flexing deep in to the handle of the rod. It’s optimized for sweeping heavy terminal tackle from the water and launching short heavy heads with authority. This rod has been thoroughly tested with the popular skagit lines of the moment and the results have been excellent. We recommend the DNA-XD action for anglers who predominantly fish deep and utilize ‘sustained anchor’ styles of casting with Skagit heads. The detail: Natural grey graphite blank, spey grip, down-locking black anodized reel seat.

THIS IS OUR STORY Not many companies survive as long as we have by making fine fly rods in the USA so our history is a special one. Mixing a storied bamboo workshop with innovative graphite production fascinates non-conformists. Yes its eccentric, but to the man on the street, so is fly fishing. Fortunately, kindred spirits seek us out and the Thomas & Thomas legend lives on.

I quickly realised how dedicated the employees were in producing a fine product. They talked about quality control with pride. Everyone from the office junior to the master craftsmen were proud of the label Made in the USA.”
