I've been really looking forward to having a go with this one. Held it against the 501 and the mtx 3 and thought it was alot better in hand. So much so I've ordered one for the start of my club season. Can't wait
Hi. Bit late to this vid but watch all your vids. Really helpful and honest. Just wondering would you say that the x50 is worth upgrading from the MAP 301. Mostly fish 13m . Best for budget of about £1300 Cheers. P.s. keep up the good work and vids bud.
Sorry mate. I already looked and can't see the vid in your play list. Can you drop a link to the specific one where you compare the 3 preston poles side by side please?
Quick question for ya mate, if you had to choose between a Preston x50 or a map 501 which would you say is a better pole? I have a load of tks top kits but thinking of changing over.
Great vids. At 1 min, you said that in addition to the 3 individual vids, there'd be a video to compare the 3 poles side by side. Can you reply with that link please.
Great vid, mtx3 or x50 for your money? using mainly 13-14.5m, never 16m, think the x50 has a better package I think but can’t find anything local to have a waggle of it
Hallo, how long is the kit in 3 and 4 pieces?. Is the rod Stifter with the short kit and the Mini 3 section? What do you thing to other Brands, witch rod you like more, the carp, x50 or x70. Best gegards from germany, we wait for this rods.
@@Angling4U So my choice is either a superium x50 or MAP TKS 501 3g. In your opinion which is stiffer at 14.5 meteres? I will probably rarely fish at 16m but need something fairly light and stiff as I am a 10 stone weakling in my 60's. Like your independent opinions, very helpful.
I enjoy your reviews Ben and got some useful info from them over the past year, one bit of constructive criticism is try to avoid using descriptions like "pretty decent" as it means nothing and spoils an otherwise informative review.
Looks a great pole but I'm a little disappointed you didn't actually put the extensions on like you said in the video you were going to (14.5 & 16m), because the review at these lengths is what I was most interested in 😩
very difficult in a tight environment. Lots of my other videos are easier with a little more space. I think there is minimal info out on them so I tried to get some out there. I did film the close up 14.5m & 16m but it didn't focus properly & spoiled that bit of footage sorry

Sorry mate. I already looked and can't see the vid in your play list. Can you drop a link to the specific one where you compare the 3 preston poles side by side please?
I don't do them side by side just all the range one by one. that's what I meant on the vid 3 separate vids sorry.
good evening a question how many mini extensions are there in the superium x50 pack and how many meters the extensions are thank you
etentions are all 50cm
for 13,14.5m & 16m

x50 bud map will have new poles soon
I’m wondering if you would review any of the Maver range of poles and rods to see if they are worth having
on my list fella
Ben do you do any coaching?
No bud. but happy to go fishing with people & help them for free
@@Angling4U great stuff! I live 5 mins from Lindholme Lakes and I see you go there a bit! Could do with a few pointers to be honest
Have you had your hands on a Maver mv r competition 16m pole if so what do you think of it.
at Maver match this was lovely
@@Angling4U in your opinion is it as good as the x50
Great vids. At 1 min, you said that in addition to the 3 individual vids, there'd be a video to compare the 3 poles side by side. Can you reply with that link please.
All on this playlist bud
ruclips.net/p/PLeStVQiOwZf5Oehg8VB7aC6Nn9Nf4mgeF
What would be better, g90 or x50
x50
Hey love these videos, did you try the pole to 16m as well as very interested to hear what you think
I did film it but the focus spoiled it sorry
@@Angling4U thank you for the reply, totally understand and keep up the videos 🙂
Great vid, mtx3 or x50 for your money? using mainly 13-14.5m, never 16m, think the x50 has a better package I think but can’t find anything local to have a waggle of it
x50 just feel all-round its better
@@Angling4U thanks, I’ve since ordered the x50 so glad you’ve said that, expecting it next week 👍
@@jamesleeson6970 how ya getting on with the x50 m8
Hi when will you do one on the Preston 70 pole thanks
filmed will be up soon
Please guys should i buy superium x50 or a daiwa g90 or wait till new map range come out held needed thanks!
x50 for me a better pole
Of all the poles you've tested at 16m in this range, which one would you buy..
x70
Is it actually 16m though or do you have to use a dolly butt to get there?
dolly
Show us it at full length please.
I did film it but the focus spoiled it sorry
@@Angling4U How would you rate it at 14.5 and 16m?
Hello i would be ready to buy a x50 but i can t find an anglish store that wants to send to me in france !!,???
Yeah hard that fella

2.4m top kits. a little stiffer with carp kits x70 my favorite of the 3
mtx3 ultra vs. X50 on 13m ?
x50 stronger not much at 13m properly mtx3 but would still rather x50
@@Angling4U thx
Hi, what do you think is the main difference is between the X50 & X70, apart from £500 😂 Cheers
better carbon slightly stiffer
Best pole at this price range?
all depends on invidual. map, preston & Middy all good around this range

Very nice Ben seems a good price aswell

I did film it but the focus spoiled it sorry was great at 14.5m but heavy at 16m not surprising for the price
@@Angling4U Was it any better than the X30 at 16m?
Ok to a degree...filming quality is average..description was great but needs better quality filming you really can't see the technical stuff...

@@Angling4U
That's OK...it was tight I understand..
But usually the INDEPTH VIEW IS GREAT.......YOUR VIEWS MAKE AND CHANGE PEOPLES BUYING POWER....
