hi,

 

thanks for your replys on the subject,and ive been looking at the abu 6500 range as 8 shot mentioned,and they look like the reel for me!

 

 

oscarsdad,i did have a look at the penn 525 supermag,it looked very good,but the reviews werent all that,alot of the people who used them said they were very noisey when they was casting(from the bearings)

but they did say the 525mag was better,but thanks anyway.

 

thanks tillylamp.

most of them greys gotta lifetime garantee on em ,wat one you got , i have had quite a few of them when they were built in this country srx--apollo --nitra the apollo in 13-14 ft . was the best of the bunch 4 me 14 foot one but the nitra was a close 2nd ! except if casting every 15 mins in a comp then you felt u bin punched in the side after the match !!!!! them 6500 are wicked rinse them off after every session and always release the drag after fishing ended spares for em are cheap dont put ceramic bearing in load of bollocks they are rip off , all the very best with your fishing mate reguards paul [ if you need any advice message me anytime ]

hi paul,

the greys rod is a grx-s 13', and the reel is a abu 6500, the rod has not been hardly used its like brand new,and the reels in good clean condition and runs really smooth, i bought them from a junk shop near me and payed £87 for them?

i think i had a good deal,

the rod is one of the cheaper ones but it felt good for me,and the reel worked well,

thanks for your advice,

 

tillylamp.
