I have a Pezon & Michel Berkeley Custom Parametric 8’ #6/7 fibre glass, I bought it several years ago in almost brand new condition for the grand sum of 20 euros, i've used it quite a few times and it's a lovely rod.

I have been trying to find out any information about this rod and would welcome any available input from the forum.

Thanks in advance.

Dave

Hello i am pleased you enjoy using your fishing rod, i have an oldy fibre glass and sometimes use, very relaxing nice easy casting for 20 euros thats a great buy. i am sure you will find someone give you info required but i can remember was a name i remember i think 80s, (maybe wrong) anyway can try google too. happy fishing

Hi Dave,

maybe you can ask your question here as well:

Are Berkley Parametrics really parabolic? in Glass Tech Forum

These guys seem to be glass fibre fanatics.

Regards,
Johan

Hello johan an interesting view from these fisherman, bit to technical for me i looked up parabolic in the dictionary. just think fibre glass make great fly rods, and the likes of barbel ones too etc,i did have a The Avon glass 1 until my son took a fancy too it still no worry eh. happy fishing

Yep, I read it myself before starting this thread, a bit of anal lot and I learnt not a lot, so I thought I would try the real people of this forum to make it understandable for me.

I'm sorry Dave, I only tried to help. It is not easy to find information on old Pezon & Michel glass rods so I thought these guys could help you (when you asked the question). I could have added that I'm in a rather good position to know because I was the Benelux managing director for the company that bought P&M a few years ago (in fact my wife is still occupying my seat as I type this). But that wouldn't have helped you either, would it? Do hope some real people find you the answers you're looking for.

Best regards,
Johan

I was actually talking about how technical the talk was on that site and I did'nt understand much of it.

I don't see how you could think I was being rude about your assistance.

i'm sorry I was just trying to add a little humour to the thread and i'll be careful not to do that again, of course any information is good information.

Thanks

Dave
