Originally ALL poles came with top 3s or if you were lucky top 4s. Then angling took a diversion and carp came into the equation and along came carp poles. These had to be a lot stronger and were made with thicker walls and in high modulus carbon, no need for the puny number one sections anymore! Because these carp were being stocked in waters that already held silver fish it made sense that the pole section configuration followed that of the 'old style' poles which were now called 'Match' poles. So a power top2 can be used to fish at the same depth as a match top3, and pole development has brought poles that come with a variety of kits so you can fish for anything.
