The Greys G-Mag series are not worth 34 cent ! IMHO They are Singly the worst reels that have ever hit the market.. Completely over thought heaps of JUNK.

As soon as the remaining stock sells, that will be the end of them........ Thankfully......

The Akios are a cracking range of reels.. Similar to the Abu's but without the faults and cheap parts that have crept into the Garcia range in the last 12 years.
