ITALCANNA GREYSTONE 150
In 2024, Italcanna is launching its new 3-piece Surfcasting rod series, called GreyStone.
Born from the collaboration between our research department and the athletes of Team Italcanna, this new product line is based on new molds and new materials, but relies on the experience of rods that continue to make history...
The Greystone is crafted from a blend of no less than 6 different types of carbon
some classic, such as high-modulus carbon with a nanocomposite matrix and the precious 1K weave, but also new, innovative materials we define as having "increased radial resistance," developed in partnership with valuable collaborators, which contribute to creating a powerful, reliable, and lightweight structure.

The GreyStone line is fitted with Fuji guides: single-leg on the upper section to keep it light and prevent stiffening, and double-leg on the lower section for greater robustness. High-grip paint is used on the handle and joint areas, featuring the exclusive RewTaper joint (Italcanna patented) to ensure stable and long-lasting connections.
In detail, for example, we can say that the LG75 model is a slightly asymmetrical 3-piece rod, perfect for fishing with both 75g and 50g, with which it expresses a marked tip action, thus allowing for perfect reading of the sea.
The length of this model makes it suitable for all those situations where very long rigs are required or where you need to clear the first wave on significant seabeds where fishing on the first drop-off is necessary.
Despite its length, it does not suffer from vibration/oscillation issues during the cast, thus avoiding annoying tangles on the tip while ensuring excellent casting performance even with simple motions, both with 50g and 75g. This is also thanks to the single tip section that allowed us to perfectly optimize it with the underlying structure.
Very convenient for competitions as it allows for very light fishing targeted at small fish near the shore, or for immediately changing range and type of fishing by switching to a 75-gram lead.
The action is certainly tip-heavy, but the section below the tip is immediately responsive when needed, doing so in a progressive and gradual manner, never abrupt, thus allowing us to also deal with larger fish and thin lines without the risk of breaking due to a sudden dash on a shaft that is too stiff.
The GreyStone LG75 therefore represents the right compromise between tip action and workability/fish handling, resulting in a lightweight rod that can be used comfortably in the hand, while simultaneously allowing excellent control over 75g, which it handles with ease.
The slim spliced tip is truly sensitive and leaves no doubt even during very small and lethargic fish bites, allowing us to shorten response and fishing times.
The 150 and 180 models are respectively recommended for weight ranges between 125-150g and 140-180g, where they express their full potential.
