I like fishing with a pole. Especially on a canal for decent roach. That's what pole fishing is all about.
Trouble is, many now are trying to catch big hard fighting fish with poles, this I think is wrong. One day you will see dear old Bob Nudd all set up for Atlantic Tarpon with his 22 metre ?45,000 pole with number 145 elastic.
First bite and the top three sections disappear into the briny in 1/2 a secind flat, thats about 5000 quid down the drain!!
Some poles around cost more than the money I spent on my new car. I just cannot see the value in 16 metres of carbon tube, no matter what it says in the ad about it being light and stiff.
?300.00 is the most that you need to spend on any pole.
