Clive.
I've used orange vespe hollow core and purple hydro in mine without any problems. I had 170lbs today for another win at Viaduct and despite the wind being a pain I still managed to fish at 14.5 all day without any problems.
I can't justify having two poles which is why I'm considering changing to a SP as that will cover all of my needs including Lump fishing however there doesn't seem to many about.
I have been told that Daiwa will be bringing a mew pole called the All Terrain Whisker which is supposed to handle elastics up to a 20 and falls between the Tournament Pro and the G8. i've been led to believe that it's going to sell for around £1500 so when it comes out if I can't get a SP I'll have a look at one, (hopefully it'll be a re-badged SP but I'll have to wait and see).
All the best,
Dave
