TF_jparkin43Hi
Thinking of buying a Daiwa Airity 13m super slim, mainly for use for silvers, can I please have any comments back about its performance, don’t need 16mts and like Daiwas quality and spares back- up so seems to be a good choice, but notice not many around and just wonder why ?
Thanks

TF_morris1985I agree with Andy my knowledge of the super slim is that it’s the spectron m2 mandrel these did not sell as they were not very stiff and a crap all round pole stick to the 13m package of the normal airity you can always add sections at a later date if you wanted but personally I would go for the full 16m package then you could always sell the butt sections and get some cash back it would probs work out cheaper than the 13m pack that way pal

i’m afraid to say your knowledge is incorrect i have a 13m airity super slim it is the same as a normal airity down to a number 8 section the only differance is the ‘slim half butt and 2xparallel slim butt sections’ i have used this pole for 2 years with no problems and although i use it for silvers have had carp to over 10 pounds out on it hope this helps

TF_wightanglereven a few in use down here, which in consumer pole sales terms is the equivalent of the dark side of the moon.

TF_morris1985The spectron m2 was marketed as a silvers pole I’m I not correct so your telling me that when it’s got hollow elastic in it that fishing it at full length it’s stiff !! Well that’s not how it felt to me and if it was such a fantastic pole why do you never see them on the bank ?? It felt like a sloppy pole to me with with the hollow in as you say that is my opinion and am talking out of my arse!!!

You are very much correct,Silvers pole rated to a 12 elastic.You still have not said that you have ever owned one??.Maybe the one you tried had Purple/red hydro in it.My hollo in mine is maver retro 6-10 and white hydro,all hollo and no droop in mine at 16 mtr.
