Tony.
Just bought a Aspire 1600 pro from Climax Tackle for £1249.
Used it for the first time at Lindholme on Saturday.
unbelievably versatile.
May be worth considering as a upgrade.

The only thing what put me off the Pro at climax is the price of the spares!!

[Manc]

Yes Rob..Your right about the high spares prices.
These are based on the highly inflated R.R.P. of £4K.for the pole.
I think they could be obtained pro rata the discounted price via a good tackle dealer.
Some of the generic Diawa sections also fit this pole.
I required a spare match top 3 and bought a Fox universal kit for £29.99.
Just a small amount of fettling and it works fine and does not upset the balance at all.

Ive just rang climax and they are all gone!

[Manc]

Im not surprised at that price Rob..

[TF_piperpilot]

Number 4 = £340
Number 5 = £400
Number 6 = £449

Ouch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,
