i have the 12ft 3lb and the 12ft 3.5lb

Both do the job and have not had any probs with them.

Not out and out casting machines tho, more all rounders imo

Bought a set of 3.25tc before Christmas. Used them a few times and feel good and nice to cast. Not yet had the pleasure of catching on them yet (questioning my choice of winter lake) but so far would highly recommend but accept early days

Also have them in 3.25tc while as stated not out and out casting rods they more than do the job I'm able to hit the out of bounds bank at 150yds comfortably and quite accurately so very happy with them as I'm no great caster

I like a 3-3.5oz as gives something to punch against to really get the distance

Brilliant rods, had freespirit hi-s 3.5s before swapping to aircurves, the 3.25 aircurve is a joy to use very responsive and nice to play fish on.

had mine about 5 years now absolutely fantastic rods...I have the 12ft 3 1/2 in the duplon handles they are not broomsticks but very capable long range rods. I would buy another set without a single concern.

Been using the 3 ¼tc for the past year. Having problems with line whipping around first ring, not sure if it's because the first right is slot further forward than other or if it's the reels or even the way I cast.

Their warranty service I have had to use as tip ring was damaged, they could send me the ring to fix myself or pay £30 for a new rod section. I never liked the tip rings so replaced all of them for anti frap type rings and put the old ones to one side just in case.

Other than that, I like um

reason i ask is cos get talking to anglers at me lake ... a few moan that Greys rods have a tendency to break/snap?
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
