Match Fishing's Alex Bones was recently joined by Dan Bennet from Shimano at the excellent Lindholm Lakes, where the two discussed the new Shimano Aero Competition family of poles that features the X1, X2, X3 and the Power Margin. After a demo from Dan, Alex then got to fish with the Aero X2 and considering the price point, it really is an outstanding piece of kit.
We join Middy backed Steve Barraclough on the Silver Birch Lake at Woodlands Lakes near Thirsk where he shows just how good the fishing is for both match and pleasure anglers.
We recently joined England Ladies international Sarah Taylor at Weston Pools to see how she approaches shallow fishing for big weights on the pole for a mixture of species other than carp and f1s

Here's your chance to win one of four Maver MV-R EVA Dual-Store Carryalls.
Garbolino X-Tend – much more than two rods in one! These are seriously versatile tools for anglers who want all bases covered, without carrying dozens of rods at a time. Alex Bones gets out on the bank with Garbolino’s Darren Cox for a look.
MAP is known for its innovative product solutions and these new pole rollers are absolutely no exception. Packed with features, ultra-adaptable and undoubtedly another winner from the team.
