[Frank pole]

Just built a 25ft Gangster ( top bit of kit! ) But what other pole  can I use to get me up to 40ft ish?

You aint going to like this but you should have started with a 40fter , as its not easy putting extensions on to the Gangster www.cheshirefishing.co.uk/shop/mappoles.htm  Have 40ft actual cut down length, M16 @ £294 0r the F16 at £249. (They are not interchanegable) Both poles are very stiff compared to the Gangster, My F16s going well into its third year.

how good ar ethe fishing poles compared to the poles othe rpeople are selling? I'd imagine them to be pretty much the same thing just branded different with clamps etc

Jeff - I`m sure I see someone on here extended the gangster a bit, But if not its not a problem, I`m still in shock at the difference using a carbon pole makes to a days graft! Its as if I have the strength of 10 men! Ive read most of your posts on this carbon pole subject and I wished I`d crossed over to the "dark side" sooner! - Keep up the good work!

i got a series of zensorflex and gangsta's to 42 ft, it was nice enough in weight and bend aswell

it was a gangsta and a few spare bits from a gansta and TWO zensorflex's, though looking at it i said at the time, i would have got similer out of the ONE gangsta and THREE zenslorflex's ( i never did try it though )

JSMC,

These poles are modular, so there's no clamps.

But they're light, cost-effective, robust and my Gangster and Zensorlex are both class bits of kit.

JSMC,

I've had a tough few days of work, and I'm currently cooking dinner; (I'm on the lap top in the kitchen; and I'm not keen on the keyboard either); but I did a good DIY guide not so long ago which I'm sure gives weights and stuff.

Use the search button, search for Tosh Zensorflex Gazza, and I'm sure that'll give you a good start.

But to be brief, for around £100 (ish) you'll get two poles, the Gangster and the Zensorflex which are both tough and lightweight; the Zensorflex will give you about 15 to 18 foot (depending on how you modify it) and the Gangster will give you about 25 foot; though using two sections of the Zensorflex with the Gangster will get you to about 30 foot; comfortable for most 3 story buildings.

If I was selling them I'd probably give you more info; but I'm not!

It's well worth the money - REALLY SIMPLE TO DO - and class for banging about your domestic work.

Anyone in Wilts who wants a Zensorflex - i have one all made up and sitting in my garage never used.
