ive just got the map tks 125 13m pole with 3 kits 2 power kits and and match top 3, it only weighs 695g at 11.5m and is the stiffest pole ive ever used. it cost me £235 but you can get them on ebay at around £200. perfect for silvers on the canal but just as good pulling carp out down the edge on the commies.

i fished with it at 13m for 12 hours the other day and it was a doddle. every review ive read online about hem has been good and the spares package you can get for them is shi-t hot too. £29.99 for the power kits and £35 for the match top 3s, id deffinately reccomend them to someone looking for a great pole on a budget.
