Lami Tri-Flex Rods

[Mick]

Does anyone have any comments on the Tri-Flex line of Lamiglas? How do they compare to the Surf-& Jetty line? Pros, Cons...

They're physically heavier then most of the S and J series, but tough as nails. You can definitely tell there's a bit of 'glass in there. I like that though.

I took the Surf and Jetty 11 footer myself. I believe the tri flex was designed to be braid friendly. I really don't care for that foam handle at all as I preferred the cork.

the tri flex series was designed more for rods to be fished w/ braid. in the surf series, you might noticed the rods being a little tip heavy, as that is where the glass section is. the glass cushions the cast and hook set, while providing a nice load as well when casting. being a little top heavy it can wear on your a little, but i have learned to deal w/ that as i love mine. i have a custom i built on the 10' one piece model, which was discontinued this year by lamiglas. peteg felt it last week and can attest that this rod has more power than the 1205 and 1201m in the mid to butt section. i built mine to handle lures in the 2-4.5 oz range, primary to handle stuff around 3 very easily. i may look into building the 9'6" 2-piece model over the winter to leave in the car/truck. so, some love them, some dont like them. i like them.

their tri-flex boat series rods/blanks are excellent.

A little late with this reply but Im new to the forum. I just purchased the
9' 6" ft. model TSRMH96 for a very good price (below 200$ new online) and i put my VSB150 on it, balance and weight are perfect.
