Hardy & Greys - Alnwick, England

Overview

The upgrade to the popular Platinum XD Saltwater.

This rod is built on totally new high/intermediate modulus blanks and features a high performance action that blends the brute force requirements of battling strong coastal winds with the technical demands of softly presenting a fly to a tailing fish in the often deadly 20ft range.

This exceptional blank is combined with a host of upgrades from the original Platinum XD salt range including section line up marks, high quality Kigan guides and a custom designed and built Greys reel seat with Carbon spacer. The rod is supplied in a heavy duty triangular, colour coded Cordura rod tube with internal dividers.
