try fishermans friend. those poles are nearly 20 year old mate.

I think I have some of these in the garage if you are struggling…..

Drop me a PM

geeps do you have any for futron 13.7m??????

Think Fishermans Friend are still advertising top kits for the Futron they have a large advert in Match Fishing Mag every month

Fishermans Friend make me laugh, every month they spend god knows how much on the spread in Match Fishing and have the same two crappy pages, which have clearance poles from 1992!!
Whats all that about?
Maybe done for times like these eh!

No Futron I’m afraid I don’t know if the mandril is the same???

ive got a dam futura im pretty sure there on the same mandril as the futron the top kits def fit as i have 1 of them on it

“I know that Fisherman Friends hav top kit for futron,but do they fit to tectron,because top kit from mactron don’t fit to tectron… “

Yes the Futron top kits fit the Tectron. I bought some from Fishermans Friend for the exact same purpose. Brilliant service from them as well! ~clap

only prob with top two of futron very short and lightweight and not up too carping, whereas the rest of the pole makes a very strong pole maybe shortening no 4 to fit stronger top twos would be a compromise but i only have one no 4 ?????? and being a tad old wont hold my breath for another no 4 unless esselle could come up with a solution ????

i dont think id like to use either for carping! cracking canal poles!

I ve got a futron and now 2 tectrons 😀

can t wait to use them all!
just need to get hold of the mactron then got the set :rolleyes:
used to have one but was a kno* and sold it 🙁
do you think a no10 elastic in tectron be ok chaps??
i had a no 12 in mactron but different pole cheers james

Ive got a futura and a futron yes top kits fit both poles but not all of the other sections inter change

what did they cost ya buddy for them???

Had the Futura from new and brought the Futron off a mate for 80 notes with 4 top kits and a few spares sections dont get bargains like that very often and still use them for everythink except commercials

that was cheap!!

very light pole,the mactron i had used to use no12 in it and in winter series at lands end had fish to 15 on it plenty power!!

would thought a no8 in futron and no10 on tectron would be fine nowadays!

got mine as mu gis preston pole use is too thick but sections are BLOODY dear 🙁

yep got no8 in a couple of top kits and 6 in the other 2 like you say they are so light and a pleasure to use I use a Sensas 734 on commercials which is nice to fish with but when you use the Futron or Futura you can hold it allday as it feels like you fshed with a todays top 4 or 5

Well used me tectron yesturday 1st time as only just got this one and loved every minute of it 😀
caught fish to 12oz using no4 latex only fished 6m or 6.5 feeding by hand groundbait balls and crushed hemp by toss pot and like you say being So thin could not do it with my gis9 pole even tho light twice as thich the sections which have problems now as hands stiffing up with illness cold 🙁

Im going to put some no8 latex in a top kit and maybe no10 for skimmers old small carp but want check pole can take it first :p
