Greys Wing Streamflex Single Handed Fly Rod
The new Wing fly rod series from Greys: the new flagship of the popular manufacturer and an absolute highlight that powerfully stirs up the fly fishing market. Because so much technical finesse and expert know-how as in the new rod series has never been seen before in a Greys rod. And best of all: from small stream fishing, to Euro nymphing, to two-handed fishing for salmon, to uncompromising saltwater fishing for blue-water giants, the fully comprehensive rod series really covers all niches of fly fishing. The Wing Series is so broadly positioned that truly every fly fisherman will find the perfectly tailored rod for every conceivable use. And this at a very affordable price, typical for Greys. What all rods have in common is the high-modulus carbon blank, which uses the Greys-typical Powerlux matrix - a technology that makes the blank particularly strong at relatively small diameters. The action and the structure of the respective blanks was thereby tailored to the intended area of application of each individual rod model. Visually, the series impresses with a uniform, modern and very chic look: The matte carbon gray does not reflect light and reduces the scaring effect in tricky conditions, while in the hand part the parts in "Glossy Red" give the rods a very noble "touch". Ergonomically designed handles made of high quality cork and custom reel seats with double lock nut complete the overall picture.
Wing Streamflex
Streamflex surely is not a new term at Greys and thankfully, also in this exciting rod series, a model series is again explicitly dedicated to light, sensitive stream and river fishing. Because "Streamflex" stands for lightweight and precise fishing at your local creeks, streams and river for trout, grayling, chub and co. The Wing Streamflex lives up to this reputation and offers an improved action, a flatter blank design and a great balance compared to previous series of the same name, which you feel from the first cast with the rod. Line control and precision are absolutely paramount on all models and that's thanks to the modified, medium-fast action with fast recovery. The slim Powerlux carbon blank provides an incredibly high level of control and feel during the cast and during the fight, which is simply tons of fun on any trout water!
The wide range includes ultra-light short rods for the fine presentation of the dry fly in the green tunnel, all-round rods for all offering techniques and long, sensitive nymphing rods for modern Euro Nymphing. The progressive action of the Powerlux blank is somewhat softer on the longer rods, especially in the tip area, allowing even the finest bites to be clearly detected. The construction of the individual models is perfectly adapted to their intended area of use.
