Zziplex, which one?

[Tonygdodds]

I'm after a new rod before my money burns a hole in my pocket!
Looking for a fairly new model for fishing rough (not too rough) marks
What am I gonna get with £250
Or am I better saving up for a new one?

 

[CHUKKA]

Get an m427. Theres a century crest for sale in the used sectIon. Good rock rods.

 

[Tonygdodds]

Like rocking horse s**t though finding decent ones

I'll think you will be lucky to find a decent condition rough ground zzipie for 250 mate.

maybe a century or a torrix?

Tell me about it,
Looked at 2 this week
A zeteque which I suspect to be a fake rod
&
An old bullet which looks like it's been dragged behind a car through gravel & would need at least quarter of an inch building up on spigot & he had the cheek to call it useable but good condition bargain at £180

Looks like I'm saving for a new one there's a m4 evo blank on eBay
But the missus would chop off my rod if she finds out Iv spent that much

just keep your eye out mate on sales section, now the winter season is finished/finishing, there maybe a few heavy ground rods coming up for sale.

as long as its original and not thrashed you should be ok

Have a look here: eFISHsell - New & Used Fishing Tackle Online Marketplace... , they are blanks only so you'll have to save a few more pennies and get Stan, Primoman or one of the other local builders to make it up for you.

Like the lads have said you probably need another £50 to get yourself a decent second hand Zziplex and be careful what you are looking at - I'd tend to stick to buying off here from known lads as that "Zeteque" you were offered is about as Kosher as a pork chop

great place to get blanks, and they all come with a genuine zzipie rod bag, I've bought a couple blanks from Tom at efishell, if in stock will be with you in a couple of days too.
