Hi Ben, I bought the Response last year after watching your review and on the bank video for my brother who is a relative novice using a pole. I was concerned he might have broken it, but need not have worried as it was true to form and he pulled out some amazing fish from the Angel of the North lakes in Gateshead. Nice one Ben keep them comming
This review was exactly what I was looking for 👍🏻 just going to get my first pole and was thinking about one off this to 2, so now I’m going to order the response margin. Great video and review. Cheers from Sweden 🍻👍🏻
Great comparison video, ty. I tried buying the Margin in Summer 2019. But was let down 3 times. So opted for the Response after a bit more saving. Glad I did. Fished with it most of last Summer and couldn't fault it one bit. Think I made the right decision.
Excellent display & very beneficial advice, i have purchased a response margin as i recently sold my xs70 due to ill health & have kept the top two kits for my margin pole. Thanks for the solid advice
Nice comparison Ben, Between these Preston margins.. These videos your making really help.. I really hope we can go fishing from Wednesday onwards.. Thanks again... Tight lines 🐟
Hi Ben, nice video pal, may be worth mentioning on the on the bank test that anybody who has a Preston Response XS 50,70,90 Poles and the old M Series the top kits interchange with the Response Margin and as with the Edge Monster anybody who has the Preston Pro Series of pole the top kits interchange with the edge monster. I have the edge monster and my fishing buddy has the response margin and we match fish all the time on commercials and believe me they are both very, very strong, I have fished the edge monster with 17h just in the top section of the power kit to pull carp/barbel out from underneath platforms with no problem. My mate has also used extremely tighten up red hydro through the top kit on the response margin and landed carp to 15lb with no problems so as i have said these pole are very strong mate. Looking forward to see the on the bank test Ben, take no prisoners.
I think the response top kits are 2.4 m in length , and are interchangeable with the other poles in the response range , I know they fit my 16 m XS response Carp pole matey
Another great video Ben. Your content helped keep us all sane during lockdown. Been looking at a new seat box. Map z36, Preston absolute and the new matrix pro 36, any advice or chance of side by side comparison.good luck with the fishing ahead.👍🎣
Not long found your channel after a massive 5 year break from fishing. Really well done, and straightforward! Im going to go for the response I think - Still using a 13m 20 year old browning pole! Think its seen its day, and the carp are wrecking me! Can you get a "match" kit for the Response? Something I can put a lighter elastic in?
Great video, I'd also consider what main pole your using as the edge monster fits all the protype x range and the response fits the response range. Just means to kits number three and four sections etc are all interchangeable between edge and protype and response to response.
xs 70 soon I think I only have the response now which interchanges. I only bought the monster to review for people my friend bought it off me good pole for the money.
Good video Ben , dint take you long to get this one out matey , I’ve also bought a response margin and not used it yet so the they’ve been very informative pal
very good video.make that i choose for the response.ordered first the edge monster but the response it's muth better.wy simpel i like stiff pole's.fore me it's also preston all my fishing gears.keep it safe ben and cu at the next video.greets from belgium.
Ben. As you're independent I tend to trust you. What margin pole would you suggest for £300, I fish a place with a lot of very big fish, many doubles. Thanks any help grateful, the Drennan Acolyte margin 9.5 looks nice and thoughts Ben on that one please? Richard.
Are map tks topkits decent topkits Ben? Iv ended up with a 8.5m map tks power margin pole and the pole itself seems really nice, I'm just wondering if the tks topkits are decent topkits in general.. as I can use any.. not sure if some are better than others. Thanks for all your reviews btw 👌👍
Hi Ben Great video as always What elastic rating would you put in the top 2 of the edge monster I’m looking to use it for shallow/paste and margins I usually fish on cedar or willows at the oaks Thanks Paul
if you decide to sell the edge monster in a couple of weeks or months I will be interested and I know youd take good care so it wont be a silly offer. how could I get in contact?
On angling_4u Instagram bud It will be for sale after tomorrows fishing review only fished with once. just bought to review it. Just want my £170 back I've elasticated 1 top kit
Ben Another very good video Any cahnce of doing matrix mtx 3 and map 501 poles awlays hear a lot of coments on these lot of people rate both would b very intrested what u think
