SLX - coming up to 3 months.
« on: June 03, 2009, 08:04:57 am »
Well a little report and update.

Still working perfectly and in my view combining all the advantages of the lightness of a fishing pole with the convenience of a telescopic.

For 90% of my round I run it at 4 lengths - about 20ft - (out of a possible 6 or 7) with a seperately purchase rubber ferrule (foot) on the end of the 4th section.

The knurled adjusters and the clamps work well.

Even in the heat of the last few days I have run good days without feeling too knackered.

It's a game of three halves!

Malc have you got any pics of your pole as it is now. I need to have a chat with Alex but think he's away at mo. Be interesting to see another. Mine is also 3mths old use it around 50% of the time. Just curious.

Thanks

The new clamps are better than the allen key clamps, not so bulky and dead easy to adjust with the new wheeled  nut. Syd  8)
