Bought the Tournament Pro from Wickersley recently. 13m, 2 spare top 5s plus a power kit (could have had a cupping kit, but already have several) in a Matrix pole holdall, all for £1625. Excellent value and one of the guys from the shop even drove me to the station with my new toy. Great shop and helpful staff.

Mtx 3 is a fantastic pole for the money let's just hope the matrix company are as good as the mtx poles regarding spares and service 👍

Not trying to sound a tight twat but also youve got to get all the extra tops elasticated at £10+ a top. Goin to be expensive

MAP 4 and 501 should be up there, also the 1001 10.2 Meter Margin pole. All very good value for money.
@baldrickscunningplan61542 жыл бұрын
MAP Poles are a bit stronger and have a higher price. MTX3 is 825grms at 13 metres. MAP TKS 501 3G is 925grms at 13 metres. I have been advised to fit a short No3 section section to the MTX3 to add strength without adding weight.

MTX 3 looks on paper fantastic but the amount of people who have problems with snapped sections and poor matrix aftermarket service is ridiculous.
@baldrickscunningplan61542 жыл бұрын
I've read a fair bit about the MTX3 before buying mine. Seems they did have a problem with the number 4 section in the early launch, and they have addressed that now. After sales service has been crap everywhere during this Pandemic. Stocks ran out over 12 months ago and there is still a heap of stuff on back order. Everything i have read of late has nothing but praise for the MTX3 and i am really happy that i got one. It really is a good Pole. Got mine for £1249.00 delivered. That is a lot of Pole for that kind of money, so i do not feel that i have been ripped off with marketing BS. I think i have got value for money.

These aren’t what most people would call mid-range. Something like the Daiwa match winner range is what I’d class as mid-range. 600-1000 ish.

Can a normal working family man afford £1500 or more. On a pole . Can have the most expensive pole out on market. But it wont make him /her a better angler . What you cant buy is water craft and knowledge.
@vpnbrianpotter3 жыл бұрын
If match fishing is your thing and the venue methods dictate you need to fish at 13m+, then you have to spend that unfortunately. As good as watercraft and knowledge is it won’t help you holding a 16m £500 pole for 5 hours
@gipsydavy14902 жыл бұрын
@@vpnbrianpotter Very good reply and bang on Brian, I'm a "normal" working man and I saved up for a top of the range pole. I'm a match angler and I can fish and really enjoy catching where others can't present it right at that length.
