More and more anglers are looking to new waters and new challenges. This often means wild rivers, wild fish and the thrill of quick, intimate action. That’s why we’ve designed the Streamflex, a range dedicated to fishing a current.
The Streamflex is versatile. The smaller three weights are perfect for brooks and small brownies in overhung streams. The eight to nine-foot, four and five-weights are general river rods - perfect for trout and grayling. The ten-foot, four and five-weights are designed for Czech nymphing or light stillwater and float tube fishing.
The Streamflex is accurate. With river fishing you need to be precise so a fast recovery allows the flexed rod to return to its stationary position almost instantly. This means the fly line goes out absolutely straight. The quality of the carbon cloth and the structure of the fibres eliminates wobble, increases precision and lays down a perfect close-quarter line. The Streamflex performs brilliantly in the lightweight world of floating lines, dry flies and nymphs. River fishers will love the impeccable balance, the progressive, middle-to-tip-action and lightweight rings, as well as the ability to make perfect casts and quickly mend the line.
The Streamflex - king of the current.
Fly-Fishing World Champion 2008, Martin Droz said;
“The Greys Streamflex rod is extraordinary in its adaptability and flexibility. With my standard 9’ #5 rod I was able to compete in New Zealand on smaller rivers with light still water techniques.
Well balanced in its length and delicate and sensitive action, whilst retaining amazing speed and accuracy, the rod is suitable for Czech nymphing, French nymphing with long leaders, and for dry-flies with the same fishing enjoyment.
But what I value most about this rod, is the capability of playing and landing fish reliably- large, seriously fighting rainbows or smaller wild brownies.
Most of my Czech team mates get fully equipped now with the complete range of specialised Greys Streamflex rods, as they seem to be designed exactly for our needs.”
