What kind of carbon is it, because I want to buy it and want to try making a fishing rod, please explain

[@normanchaddock3371]

I recommend diawa poles namely g8 I owned one for a while a bit dear though

[@stegee1]

having recently bought one of your matchwinner C4 poles recently from bobco tackle in leeds, i have to tell you i am very dissapointed with the availability of spare top kits anywhere as im told they are not uk made and availability is limited, if i do find them they are vastly overpriced compared to other pole makers. had i known that the daiwa pole was so limited on tops and spares i would never have bought the pole and feel i should have been told about the lack of aftercare service i could expect from such a large name in the tackle industry. it has put me off buying or recommending daiwa for a long time!, i would be interested in why availability is so poor for such a large company!

Only the top end Diawa poles are made in the UK. I think from the g20 and up... Could be wrong. All other Diawa pole sections are made on different size mandrels overseas with a lower grade carbon 👍

I have a match winner 3 and have the same problem but I found a browning top kits fit and only £20 each
