Default maver pole 101

as always good advice ladsi am not a lover of maver poles,but i put this aside and picked up this pole today,at the mo i have a shimano nexave xt comp 13m cost me £229 from west midlands angling with 2power kits one match kit and a cupping kit all in.
although the maver 101 is a bit slimmer through the sections it seems a tad heavier than mine at full length,also spares aint cheap plus more importantly with all poles in this price range it will be unfishable at longer than 13m.
i have had 2 maver poles the moby dick which i kept for two months and a sparticus 16m which i fished for a season with so i have had the budget end and top end of mavers range,and am now happy with my shimano, feels better to fish with and have had me best results with it.
so as a first pole the maver 101 is so new and has not had time to be angler tested be weary, there are a lot of good poles out there in the same price range and without doing my homework i would not have found out about my shimano,and there was no angling times feature about it because, if you read the paper a lot as i do maver products always get good write ups.
hope that helps
