Can anyone tell me what this pole is like?
Im dieing to get a pole but im not sure!
Has anyone had any experience with this pole. They say its rated to 20 elastic and is it better than the middy 'the works' pole?
Please help i need a pole!

hi monkeyboy, i have one of the 11m axiums.
to start with i had a cracked joint so had to get a section replaced.
most of the joints go well together,like well into each other,but one is tight and with ferm pressre is acceptable.
i don`t know whether its the pole or me being ham fisted but i have since cracked another joint.then i beefed up the joints with fibreglass repair tape which although looking weird does the job,
i have used it with 18 elastic to land a 15lb carp which it coped with well.
due to the modification i would not risk a 20 elastic in it and i don`t know as i would risk it in standard form either.
i would not buy another.
in the price bracket i would look at a leeda assasin 2 which they reviewed in angling times a couple of months ago,unfortunatly i have not found anyone that stocks them.

thanks bubbles,they must be a recent addition as i had checked them before.
if i remember right the times said they were not the lightest pole on the market but were solidly built and could handle a lot of abuse.
