Preston Edge Monster Power Top 2 Kit

Product Information

All goods which are supplied by us and sent outside the UK are not covered by the manufacturers usual warranty. For example if you buy a rod or pole and a section breaks within the UK warranty period we cannot claim against our supplier as their warranty is only valid inside the UK. We would always suggest that you insure expensive items against damage during use in case of breakages. Our ambition is to provide our customers with a friendly experience which is convenient, great value and hassle free. The first thing I wanted to test was whether that extra stiffness had turned the Edge Monster from the UK’s best-selling margin pole into an elongated broom handle, with all the balance of Humpty Dumpty attempting to sit on the wall after a heavy night out on the town! I can allay your fears straight away on that score.

YOU might say the Preston Innovations 8.5m Edge Monster Margin is the David Attenborough of poles – everybody loves it! Comes with 2 top kits that I decided to experiment with. Thought I’d try the Matrix Slik and opted to put green 16-18 in one and red 18-20 in the other. A bit heavy maybe, but I have NG Twin Core 14-16 in my main pole inter-lastics, so the Edge is kitted for munters and snags. Unlike many pole top sections, the Preston Innovations Top 2 Kit is sold already fitted with revolutionary Roller Pulla system and comes pre-fitted with a PTFE bush. If you want to dip your toe into pole fishing the Monster margin is the ideal starter pole, I’ve used one of the top kits with Drennan 6-8 bungee set not to tight and dont bump off many silvers, and landed some real lumps as well.Of course, this isn’t a top-end pole, but it’s still very comfortable to hold over the full course of a match and not overly bouncy to fish with.

We have listed information below which explains what is covered under your manufacturers pole warranty. This is intended to help you understand what may or may not be covered and in no way affects you statuary rights under the sale of goods act or any other current legislation. Tough, hard-wearing section walls are a given, as are top kits that can be used with the heaviest of hollow elastics without fear of an expensive carbon explosion.Having fished it at its full 10m length, with the mini extension fitted into the end of the new butt section, I’d agree that it’s been stiffened up through its mid-sections.

Preston Innovations is a match fishing specialist, which means that all its products are designed with the aim of catching the most fish. The brand is regularly verified by the bestselling angling magazines up and down the country and is a huge name in the industry. The brand demands quality and practicality and is supported by the expertise of the biggest names in matchfishing. If you’re wondering why Preston didn’t simply release an extension section for the original pole, let me explain – and at the same time dole out some well-deserved praise to the company for not merely releasing a random butt section to achieve that extra length. Carp caught close in tend to scream off and fight hard and as such you need a polecapable of withstanding such a fight. The Edge Monster from Preston has been designed to extract hard fighting carp from the margins and is super strong yet lightweight, you can comfortably support the pole with one hand whilst reaching for your landing net or baiting your swim. The good news, however, is that the latest version is formed around the same mandrel as the original, and that means The Edge Monster oozes strength, and I could pile on the pressure – not perfect, admittedly, but it will still perform perfectly well if you don’t want to splash out for the complete new model. If you start on topkit plus 3 for a few trips and then add the butt section after you are used to the feel of a pole, you will find it very pleasant to handle, although its heavy compared to a top end pole at the same length , the balance is very good.
