Phill the 101 is a 13m pole not 16m, not sure what Ryan means unless he has a couple of extensions in which case it would be impossible to fish at that length. The 101 is at the bottom of the maver competition pole range which now goes upto the 401. Ive only picked the pole up in the shop and thought it was a tad heavy, you see the difference if you put it straight down and then pick a 201 up etc. All I can say mate is ignore what the angling press say about it and go and pick one up yourself, maybe try a shimano technium as well £100 cheaper probably similar weight.
