Thread: Greys 10 ft Aircurve mk2

Well despite the lack of feedback on the 10 footers I went ahead got three in the 3,25 lb testcurve with a very reasonable discount. I have not had a chance to use them yet, but I'm looking forward to be putting them through their paces. My only initial gripe is with the 50 mm ringing that sems excessive but that sadly seems to be the norm on most rods(even 10 ft) nowadays.
i´ll be pairing them with some Fox fx9´s and using them on some fairly weedy and overgrown pits so I'm excited to see how they perform once the season progresses.

There seems to be plenty of posts and praise regarding the 12 ft Aircurves, but hardly anything about the 10ft version. Any users out there that have anything good or bad to say about the 10 footers ?

Anyone using the 10ft mk2 aircurves? The 12ft´s seem to be highly regarded allrounders, so wondering if the 10 footers perform equally as good.

You can get the Sonik Vader X handle separately as a 3 piece handle( 3 6 9 Long Reach)
Would assume it´s the same as the standard 2-piece, but with a third section - which could be handy in certain situations.

Ordered on the 2nd dec, but still not received mine yet. I'm overseas though, so might be held up in transit or whatever somewhere.

The matching booster liquid is seriously pungent stuff. Don't get it on your fingers or open it inside - it will linger for days. It smells very similar to the krebsdyr-flavour(crayfish/shellfish) that the danish bait firm Danish Delight put out in the late 90´s. I may be wrong, but to my mind there seems to be a some fruity blackcurrant´ishly notes in the scent from hell booster liquid.

I read earlier on in this thread about the GPB1 turning white, but that they were fine to use. Well mine did exactly that, and I actually manage to up my pb mirror with a 46 pounder from an extremely low stock pit so they certainly are effective in that state.
However they now seem to have turned for good as they have now gone from white to a mouldy green and have a definitely mouldy smell to them. I certainly reckon they have lost their edge by now. Luckily, I still have 2 pots of s2´s to see me through the foreseeable future so all is not lost. Has anyone else had this happen with their ´white´ ones?
