had one last year was like new but was not for me.used rod on horden beach and its a clean ish beach and it was not for me.was bendy and was not good in the light wind.
the majority of experienced fishermen will tell you zziplex are the better rods. fair enough the majorityy of them have not got the strongest backbone but,for example if you used any top zziplex and any top century together for 15 year off the belt nearly every week fishing in the most demanding places and conditions - the zziplex would come out on top.
previous rods.-greys orion,(crap) greys appolo origional (cracker rod at time)connoflex highlinder (too stiff) century tip tornado (fair) century compressor sport(snapped on a pendulum) centuy ccc( can cast but thats it) zziplex zti(different class)
I own a new lt14 from gerrys, custom built. very powerful but keeping the best balance between casting and back bone. planning on the new m4 for next season.
might be talking a bit of crap coz av had a few tinnys but believe me.zziplex is the best.
only rod which has come close lately is the greys platinum GSI.
just an opinion fellas before world war 3
well for me i havent owned a zipplex reason 1 am not well off reason 2 i carnt even aford a second hand one nevernind a new one but im 100% they the best rods around just my opinion lol
Yep, pretty good rods, the only Zziplex that's up to fishing real rough ground. I think some of the other Zzippies that are advertised as "rough ground" models are for those fishing down the south-east, where a few pebbles on the beach might qualify as "rough ground". I prefer other rods as a more all-round fishing tool though.
my turn now
i have 3 century ttrs 1 century crest 1 wr300 1 zipplex zti and a zipplex bulit .I problbly fish more than most on the site 4/5 nights a week so i have more than tested them all.So ttrs very stiff the fishing i do mostly heavy ground well worth the money nothing come close to this for the heavy stuff .the zipplex zti is a nicer cassting rod but lack the outright poke for heaving fish out kelp and boulders.The bullit in my opinion is for clean ground and possible mixed this is the best casting rod of the lot but is soft not ideal for the north east heavy ground but it has alresdy been said down south is a different heavy ground to what we have got so in MY opinion the ttr is the best by far also i think the zipplexs go soft far quicker than the centurys
