excellent rod at a nice price ideal for match fishing with 4/5oz leads with a good back bone as well and ultra light...

I have had one for 2 years, no complaints at all. Use it for slightly heavier applications. Good sensitive tip, casts best with 5oz. Finish is still pristine after 2 years, on offer on some of the websites at the moment, though personally I like to support the local dealers, might do you a deal if you wave the greenbacks!!

a fine clean beach rod, with greys quality and good bite registration. It can cast reasonably well, overall for the money/quality/performance/warantee i dont think you could find much better than greys rod's. There are better rods but most are more expensive.

any body have a top section of a greys travel rod 30 to 50lbs i snapped mine on a recent trip to norway and even though it has a life time warranty i could by a new rod for the cost of a replacement top section,so much for there warranty


found this quote in the for sale section :roll: maybe that warranty isnt quite all its made out to be??
