Well,



popped my first section together... oops wrong end!! it disappeared down the pole....




this is why you should use ELECTRICAINS INSULATION TAPE for the stops and the ends, then you can colour code them, this blue goes to blue and brown to brown in my case

job done ;) makes it faster aswell

good idea .. thanks

My senzorflex has sat in the van for months, I'll have to give it another try.
The Harris is such a handy pole though, and very light too.

just a quick idea, dont know if it has been mentioned. if you visit a fishing tackle shop  or even go inline. you should be able to buy "bungs" for the male sections of the pole, which allows the female section to slide on easier , without cracking/splintering the wall of the pole .i remember fishing and it made it alot easier to take apart and assemble.  :)

Hi Tosh....

i really am enjoying the pole.... one little thing though....

the male end looks quite fragile ,on each section.....  like it could split...do you use anything , or  maybe not as it would not slot in the female ..... oh well i will just have to be careful.

oh , i think you can buy a protector spray for the fishing poles... just remembered..

will check it out. ;)

they do wear and split, i just rub some glue on them when it happens ( at night of course ) it seems to seal and join the splits fairly well
