Greys Platinum Xd Competitor Fly Rod - With the Platinum XD we set out to design a rod that could not only cast thirty yards in a howling wind but could also flick a small dry fly into the rings of a rising trout with perfect delicacy and precision. It was not an easy task but we've succeeded - making the XD ultra-thin and one of the lightest rods in the world.

The Platinum range has long been the benchmark rod for the serious stillwater angler. Its fast action, quick recovery tip and all round power make it the ultimate big water casting tool. The XD Comp Special takes the range into its next dimension.
We've slimmed down the range to just three models to give added focus. The new non-flash matt olive finish might look utilitarian but in harsh, sunny conditions it may be the edge you need. The incorporation of rubber into the cork handle increases durability. Grip is also enhanced in the wet and that's a feature you will appreciate any month of the year.
The reel seat is black, hard-anodised and totally secure throughout a demanding, big casting day. It will never swell even if you put it away wet and, of course, it's saltwater proof if you fancy a session after bass or mullet.
