Greys BZE or FOX estuary Bass rod ?

#1 Post by stevo74 »

All,
I'm looking at getting the bro a new rod for his b'day. I know he wants a bass/flattie rod around 12-12.5ft , so am considering a BZE 12ft6 or the Fox estuary Bass12ft. I have the BZE myself and know it's a great bit of kit but was wondering if anyone knows anything about or has tried out the Fox 12ft Bass rod? I know it has a sliding reel seat, so he might prefer the Fox(as he uses a multiplier) and I don't have a multiplier for my BZe so don't know how it would cast.

thanks for any info
