Had this pole about 14 Months.
Been well impressed with it so far – i compared it against the G20 & i bought the Shimano !!!.
Dead staright & as good as anything to 14.5m – goes a bit at 16m.
Had some wild lumps upto 15lb on it
Not broke a scetion yet (touchwood)
Gen X Spare no’4’s are spot on
One top kit a crack appeared – swapped out under 2 year warrenty.
Used it for silvers & Carp – elastics double 4 through to Orange garbolino
Sections seem strong – i’ve bumped a few !!!
When i looked it was best pole for £1,200 that i could find. If i had 1K more & fished 16m regular i’d of gone for Fireblood.
100% happy with mine !!!!!
