        Does anyone know if the above pole kits fit the MAP parabolix sti?

        thanks in advanced.

          I’m not sure as it’s the first time anyone as asked. I would have thought that they don’t fit as the STI is a much slimmer mandrel. I’ll check and let you know.

              MrFoxman. if they do not fit. try esselle pole repairs. they will make you a number three or four section that fits your f-16 tops to your para STI. all they wil require is the length that you want it and the diameters of the male and female.

              I still use my F-16 regulary and it was certainly built to last

                Thanks worm drowner. I haven’t yet got a para STI but im pretty sure it’s what i’ll be upgrading too. It would just be nice if my F-16 tops fit it so i don’t have to buy another 6 or so tops for the para STI.

                The F-16 is a fantastic pole, can’t fault it but i’m hoping to start fishing opens this year and the F-16 isn’t exactly great past 13m unfortuantly. That’s why i’m upgrading to a pole that is fishable at 16m. However, most of my pole fishing at commercials doesn’t go past 8m anyway but in some cases you need to fish past 13m.
