I have one since it came out, use it as a back up to my 401 over here when the wind gets up just change pole from no5 down and ‘bobs your tea pot’.

Have fished 25hollow over here for WILD carp in Galmoylestown in Mullingar and landed carp to 7 or 8lb on a top kit with 25 hollow in the stick ups, no messing about with adding sections. Just swing them in and pay no attention to their whinging.

It is the strongest pole I have used in the last 20 years. Its a bit heavy at 13m to fish to hand and its rare nowadays to have to fish to hand in Ireland but I could fish it comfortably to hand at 11.5m but Im a big lad.

Im thinking of upgrading to the 14.5m powerlite invincible but as of yet im not sure as I dont know what sections are interchangeable with competition poles. As it is the invincible top5 are fully interchangeable with all competition models.

Hope that helps

I contacted a seller about the power lite and he said its made in China unlike the Invincible and none of the section are interchangeable. I was dissappointed, but got the invincible and cannot believe how strong it is. Its my margin and baggin pole now, 401 for sunday best.

ive got an invinsible which i trod on and broke my foot! no seriousley they are really that strong. will handle 25plus elastics no problem i also use the 13m section and half section up the back of my 501 to fish 18m

yea will fit the 77 they do go up a bit further but its fine try it see what you think i would say it goes up about ten inches. spoke to a guy yesterday and hes fished his 501 to 20 mtrs no problems
