Has anyone had a new pole thats falls apart after a couple of weeks ?

[drakestar!]

Yeah, a cheap extender pole, never buy cheap

[weetot]

What pole you using? or is it a fishin' rod? 

[Mist A Bit]

you always get what you pay for. i`ve only just started building my system, been told to go gardiners for pole as they are good for after service

[matt]

my fishing pole is well over 2 years old now

still going strong , used for all of my work

though i was told they would never work and were a waste of time  : :

who would have thought eh

[Niall McAllister]

even expensive poles can come apart, but less likely to happen and it should get sorted quicker

[GBWWFC]

the pole ive got is a GXTEL 24' . I might as well of threw £127 down the drain !

[Xline Systems]

send it back to the supplier! some times you do get the odd faulty pole slip through the net. 

[GBWWFC]

yes its going back next week. ive got 2 ring the courier up 2 fetch it.

[Xline Systems]

the new n-tec poles are good
but value for money i would say the new facelift glass fibre poles are the one! we sell these and have had very good feed back. and dan and russ have allways replaced the faulty ones with upgrades

[GBWWFC]

wheres dan n russ ?

[weetot]

Buy any carbon fibre pole, and reduce your tennis elbow by 95%.

I paid over £800 for the superlite, and under £15 for the Harris that gets used for all bar two jobs.
The Harris pole is light, tough, and cheap. Once you know how to fix the clamps they last for years too.

You cut out a centimeter wide strip from a plastic lemonade bottle, and wrap it once around the claws, tighten  the clamp up again, and your sorted.
