greys rods

hi it seems on this forum that the top rod makers are zziplex, conoflex, and century but from prowling around ebay and the like that greys have a nice range of rods to suit all circumstances. i have owned a grx beachcaster for a short while and found it good value and quality. they have a lot more pricier rods aswell just they dont seem to get mentioned on here to often. is there something wrong with them or have they a bit of a reputation have yet to hear any of the casting lads mention them either come on spill the beans

somebody must own one

i have the original apollo 14ft an its 1 of the best rods ive ever used im getting it rebuilt soon and recently i bought a greyflex s which is excellent value for money so i dont know about casting but for fishing i think they are the business

Have never owned a Greys Rod but know plenty lads who do and get on perfectly with them, I don't know of anyone who uses them casting as they are really designed for fishing and Zziplex are number 1 for casting rods, (most used that is) so like a sheep you follow the crowd!

If any rod does what you want it to do, it dosn't matter what make it is!

the original greys rods were the best after that they went down hill like most things

hi seanie i have used the greys apollo m2 14ft and i found it very good only problem 2 x 7ft sections was a bit of hassle , picked up a shakespere k2 extreme 15ft 3 sections which i use now . damian

Seanie, I still have that grx and no problems what so ever. There was a discussion about greys rods on worldseafishing.com and alot of people were complaining about them snapping. hope this helps

Had a Greys PZ Match for a couple of years, lovely rod. Sold it on eventually as I replaced it with a Conoflex Source.

Hi Seanie

I recently got the Greys GRX-S 13ft rod and find it a great rod, will cover most ground that you are going to fish over with a lovely bite detection. The friend got the triplex 16ft rod around the same time and swears by it, he has it matched to a Shimano ultegra reel and reacons that it has improved his cast distance. Up to this had never used a greys rod but would definately continue with them now

cheers for replys, they certainly have a wide range
