The €1000 beachcaster - Grauvell Teknos Surf II Competition

#1 Post by alby »

So who's getting one??

Silly money, but I thought that about the DH aswell (Until I bought one :oops: ), and it's nearly impossible to pick one of them up second hand now.

Anybody even tried one of these?

For those of us on the dole we can only dream of having this rod, unless Mary Hanafin gives us a 100pc increase in the next budget :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

A 1000 euro rod are you guys mad :roll: since when does it take 1500euros to catch fish when you pick up these rods do you get a h-rd on or what
if i spent that sort of money id have to fish every night to justify it whats wrong with zippys ,and conoflex greys
who makes these rods ,skoda wake up lads smeel the coffee quick :?: :idea: any rod will catch fish :wink: its the end tackle that counts ,think of the nice holliday you could have had in norway fishing with that money .i suppose everyone to there own yours truly the coyser.
