Greys streamflex

[edenangler]

Hi all!

I was wondering about the Greys streamflex 10' #5. I am thinking about a rod in this category to serve two purposes: winter grayling bugging and loch style wets on lakes such as Ullswater.
Any thoughts on the suitability/performance of this rod for these applications?
Any good alternatives of similar price (preferably less!)?

Many thanks
Matt.

Hi Edenangler.

The streamflex would be spot on for what you want, I had one of the first ones out,a very good rod, cork on the handle could be better, on thing that really did suprise me was how well it cast a lovely line, very good loop control, for such a long rod.

I can really recomend it

Thanks Sage.

Any idea how much I should be looking to pay? They seem to retail about £199, but probably available for less?

Hi Edenangler.

Yes I have seen them for £199, I must admit I havn't seen any body selling them cheaper, but I havn't looked .

As I say nice rod, looks very much like a Sage SLT in the way it is finished, I had mine direct from Hardy/Greys.

Hope this is some help

They are a very nice rod , i did a casting Demo at the N.Ireland Game fair with one a few weeks ago and it was a lovely rod to use .
