GREYS bass rods?????

hey lads
has anyone got or tried either the Platinum bass or the bze bass rods any info would be very helpful
cheers jonny

the bze bass is supposed to be a nice rod jonny i havent used one myself but have heard a few people singing its prasies.john

i had a look at the platinum bass in the local tackle shop last week its a lovely rod nice and light but still has a bit of back bone thinkin of getting one meself!

bru

i have the 11'6"bze and wont part with it ist a very good light rod for flounder,bassing,float fishing and well worth the price,ive also had the 12'6" bze aswell but gave it to nephew for his 1st rod its like his 3rd arm now he loves useing it wee bugger has'nt blanked since i started takeing him fishing.

Think they are also doin a grx-s bass too

I have the BZE 11.9 Bass rod ! Good rod, but it snapped on the top half after a very light cast, Got a new top half and no problems since

Just in case anyone else is looking at this thread, I'd like to add that I recently picked up a Greys 12' BZE, and while I can't fault the action or the blank (it's a lovely rod to fish with), the plastic insert on the top eye fell out on my second session. In itself, this is not a big deal, but it did mean I had to have the eye replaced (which is hassle) and that the tip finish was compromised two weeks after I got it.

I find it a bit irritating that Greys, who are happy to offer an unlimited lifetime guarantee for the blank, should then scrimp and use cheap eyes for the line guides.

That's my 10 cents anyway ...

bze is a lovely rod, but my tip section snapped during a cast, it is a very nice rod though, well worth the money

They also charge for postage which is about 40 euro for a tip section!

I have a pair of 12'6" BZEs, and like most of the lads that have used them I wouldnt swap them. I have never had any trouble with mine, but I dont overload them, and I step up to another rod if there is too much weed.

I use Daiwa Supercast bass which I love but have used my mates 11ft 9 BZe and it's fine, nice rod for light fishing.
