Good video, I’m in for one of these. Perfect timing finding this. Just talking to a guy in the tackle shop about exact same pole yesterday…..then this pops up.

Gave my 8.5 meter version its first outing at lindholme last week, i quite like the longer top kits it felt like i had a little bit more control when the carp decided to make a run for it after seeing the net, i didn`t feel i had to add a section to compensate Anyone looking for a new margin pole that doesn`t break the bank should check these out , nice review :)

How are you Ben it looks a nice bit of kit plenty of backbone in reserve .I think there's a need to take a foot of the topkits they'll still be over 6ft easterly long enough nice paste fish yet again stay safe son

Hi Ben I hope you are doing well I have watched this video so many times but I would like to ask a question. What is the reason of keeping the rod tip under water? Why do we need to do that during the fatigue?
@Angling4U4 жыл бұрын
easiest way to explain is if you pick someone up on dry land and feel the weight. then pick them up in water you can do it with 1 hand. the same on the fish allows you to keep the pressure on the fish & not as much on your gear. 9 times out of 10 it will stop or slow there run.

Nevermind you putting that pole through its paces, those carp were giving you a hard time. Seems a well stocked fishery with fighting fit fish! Well done.

Hi Ben. I hope that you can help me out. I need some advice on choosing the right elastic to elasticat my edge monster but as a beginner I don't want to make a mistake and break the pole or the top kit. Carps are coming up in great sizes like 5lb up to 20lb, plenty of open water around they have space to run away if they need to. What advice could you give me on elastic choice or as a beginner I should leave it out and keep practicing on smaller carps?
@Angling4U3 жыл бұрын
Hi Gabor your lookin at a 14 to 16 for the bigger fish a 12 to 14 for medium and 16 to 18 for snags in a hollow elastic or hybrid elastic I've attached a video link that may help. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5Cmh2Sgr6ibiK8 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaOQhpWBZ6-qmJI
