Had a try of the x30 and x50 at the weekend, really like the kit and this video has helped me make my mind up, can't wait to get out there and have a try, thanks
Thanks for not going into the "strawberry jam and sprinkles" marketing BS. I know from your previous that it is just not your style. I normally tune out when the tech terms get spouted, trying to encourage excitement. I want to go the tackle shop / trade show to "feel" the pole / rod / item, not to be buried in jargon.
excellent review & update, I am still happy with my XS70, it has all i need in the pole, stiff & well balanced & an extensive set of top kits so will not be upgrading just yet, just need one of them new pole socks, many thanks
This new pole range looks excellent. I would love to see a review/feature on the new 16m Carp pole as I’ve just sold my Response Carp so keen to see this new carp pole in a review. With 90% of my fishing done on commercial fisheries and the carp getting bigger these strong poles are needed especially in the summer.
Sorry to bother you Joe but have you seen the comment I left on des shipps ultimate pole sock vid? I think it's a great idea. Also Joe as you give such great tips I'd like to give one to you and your subscibers. In Aldis where the veg section is lol they sell veg bags for 25p with a draw chord they are blinding pellet setters that you can leave in the bag,reusable time and time again and also can be used for keeping maggots in they are also white which reflect heat with good air circulation and machine washable 25p each !!
No Joe lol. I made a suggestion to really make an ultimate pole sock by putting a ➕ at the front of it so you would have 4 sections for your break down sections not touching. That all.👍
I think there is 3 types of pole buyer. The £300 buyer . The £1000 buyer and the flagship £3000 + buyer. I think this is a hard sell but it's nice to see an honest no bulls**t opinion👍
Hi Joe, I have actually had x70 on order for just over a month now, but I have recently been hearing some horror stories about the x range and breakages so that’s why I’m asking you rather than believing everything you hear and read, so basically my question is … are you seeing more breakages than normal in this range and how much longer do you think my wait will be ?? Thanks Joe. Love all your vids mate so keep them coming. Cheers Keith.
Well I asked one of their top sponsored anglers he refused to comment ,and I've been told that their number one angler said the same , biggest mistake I made buying one
Hi Joe, love got the x70 and I agree it is a lovely piece of kit. Which joint aligners would you recommend, especially for the no3 section as it’s the one with most use.
Hi Joe, In you opinion what is the genuine difference between the X50 & the X70 as I’m look to to buy either the X50 or X70 but if the difference is minimal i will plum for the X50. Look forward to your feedback Mate
Good stuff Joe - the X70 is about my price mark if I was looking at anything new, although the amount of fishing I get to do now I think the wife would kill me if I suggested it! I also think you're right with the dolly butts, my Response Carp is a little over 4 years old now and the two smaller ones have never been out of the plastic.
I’m looking for a new pole, but not sure on the superium carp , the x50, x 70. I only fish commercial mostly opens but have a few pleasure pegs I’d need to fish at 16/17 meters for carp up to 6/7/8. What’s your thoughts please
hi joe great channel and vids keep up the good work,would you mind if i asked you a question about the monster side tray,the double one,do you know if i can get a fitting so i can attatch it to a 36mm leg,thanks for your time.
Great review. I think you said the mini butt supplied fits the 13m, 14.5m and 16m sections. Does that mean it packs away into 3 sections (I think the XS packed away into 2?). How much are X70 no 3 sections, I’d need a couple.
Joe, if all the top kits are the same across the board surely these must be budgeted in the mid price bracket to make them cost effective? By this I mean, you wouldn’t use the best, most expensive carbon on the top kits on your budget pole and likewise you wouldn’t use the cheapest, budget top kits on the X90 so presumably there is a happy medium? If this is the case, could the X70/90 not have been even better with top quality top kits albeit it would of made them more expensive?
why would i have to pay extra for a 16mtr pole when i only want to fish at 13 or 14.5mtrs.#surely the pole would be £300 cheaper. Allways good to watch you I live in Wimborne. can you tell me where i could go if i wished to hold one. Regards Brian
This is why the X10 and X20 will be so popular as many anglers don't need 16m. But as with anything in life you get what you pay for 👍 Let me ask around see who will stock them over your way 👍
Hi Joe, When would you use a short no3 over a long no3. I know a short 3 makes the pole stiffer, but is it only suitable for f1s or could it be used for medium sized carp as well, say upto 7 lbs. Thanks Jay........
What pole do you recommend for under a grand because I need to fish at 13m and sometimes at 14.5 m as I’m only young and want to upgrade from a margin pole anything would help
My friend bought one and the first time he fished with it three sections snapped so I won’t be buying one Think my xs70 is a better pole not broke at all
Good video Joe just one thing can you tell me is the cupping kit made specific for pole and is it the same length as top kits? Don't like the spot on cupping kit its too short and more of a universal cup kit.
They are coming in all of the time. But they sell very quickly. Just keep your eyes peeled. Leigh Tackle is always a good one to keep an eye on as he is very proactive with stock
The X70 and X90 are very similar at 13m stiffness wise. It's when you go longer the X90 gets better and better. The X70 is a significant upgrade on the M70!
@@MatchFishingFilms Would be interestng to know what kind of kit and support sponsered anglers receive. Obviously without too much details and costs. Or, are they classed as consultants?
It's like anything if you want something you will save even if on minimum wage or pension it just takes longer but it can be done. You often have people say this about affording top end stuff but think nothing of wasting money on crap tackle that doesn't last so you end up buying twice. Buy quality and normally buy once.

@Match Fishing Films but to have a number 7 joint go on 3rd time out and only lifting into a bite (missed) it was virtually a clean break and preston said I'll treatment lol crap
Well explained Joe. Just like the one you did on 20 things to do with pellets, the best vid I've seen by a mile.

when available Joe; luv the vids pls keep them coming. tight lines
Xmas time.
Nice looking pole, what is the difference between x50, 70, 90 other than the price? Cheers 👍
I would say lightness and strenth
They just get stiffer and better balanced as the price goes up.
I mostly fish commercials but not always big Carp, what single fish weight would you say the X70 would be able to land? Thanks John.
smashing video
Good stuff Joe - the X70 is about my price mark if I was looking at anything new, although the amount of fishing I get to do now I think the wife would kill me if I suggested it!
I also think you're right with the dolly butts, my Response Carp is a little over 4 years old now and the two smaller ones have never been out of the plastic.
Ha ha!
Hi Joe, When is the next Q&A with Des, hopefully there are more to come?
Hopefully in a few weeks time
I’m looking for a new pole, but not sure on the superium carp , the x50, x 70. I only fish commercial mostly opens but have a few pleasure pegs I’d need to fish at 16/17 meters for carp up to 6/7/8. What’s your thoughts please

Do you have the previous model that is a solid tray rather than the ventalite?
@@MatchFishingFilms yeah joe the one with the two pegs that slot together
Great review. I think you said the mini butt supplied fits the 13m, 14.5m and 16m sections. Does that mean it packs away into 3 sections (I think the XS packed away into 2?). How much are X70 no 3 sections, I’d need a couple.
Yes it packs away into three sections. The No3 is £119.99

If this is the case, could the X70/90 not have been even better with top quality top kits albeit it would of made them more expensive?
They are the same carbon grade top kits as we used on the response poles too. We just didn't want to fleece you all with the price 😁
I've fished response kits for 3 years never brocken one why make new one's when you've made perfection all ready stop looking for negatives and enjoy
They are the same kits we just altered the bush size to one size larger. Same carbon grade, same length, same strength. Just with added depth marks 👍
why would i have to pay extra for a 16mtr pole when i only want to fish at 13 or 14.5mtrs.#surely the pole would be £300 cheaper.
Allways good to watch you
I live in Wimborne. can you tell me where i could go if i wished to hold one.

This is why the X10 and X20 will be so popular as many anglers don't need 16m. But as with anything in life you get what you pay for 👍

Hello sorry to bother you I have just bought superior X70 Do I Need to remove The black thing on the carping kit Thanks
What black thing????
@@MatchFishingFilms I don't know what it is But I can't Put the carping kid together
The elastic aligner?
Do you mean the cupping kit?
@@MatchFishingFilms Yes Is it A pot over or telescopic
Hi Joe any idea on weight at 13, 14.5 and 16metres?
Is there a big difference between x50 & x70 @ 14.5m as I rarely fish 16m
Maybe twice a year at most
Cheers
They just get better and better the more you spend. The X50 is an amazing pole though!
@@MatchFishingFilms just got the x50 & some short 3s delivered this week so won't belong before I see if its what people say it is 👍
@@dangemmell9124 how is ur x50 im thinking of buying one ? How fishable is it on 14.5 and 16m ? Slapping 14.5 ?
@@zsocavarga6243
It's very good at its price range
14.5m is very good loses it a bit at 16m but so do most poles
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Why did you have an Air before your sponsor Joe? There were poles as good as this, from a price point at that time, daiwa g90, map 701 etc?
I didn't I had a tournament pro
Which I believe had a similar action
And I believe this is a step up from the poles you mentioned. But personal preference of course
Hi
Can you please tell me if there is any difference at all between the x50 and x70 at 13m?
Thanks a lot!
So it's a 15 1/4 meter pole then
Hi joe how much better is the x70 compared to the xs50 cheers
It's better at the longer lengths
What pole do you recommend for under a grand because I need to fish at 13m and sometimes at 14.5 m as I’m only young and want to upgrade from a margin pole anything would help
Hi Joe, Has the strength of the bigger 11/13m sections been increased ? Sold my xs90 as I felt them to soft under my elbow,thanks
Yes :)
Hi Joe, will the new short kits fit my Response 16m carp pole?
Yes Mike 👍
Yo, do you know the weight of the x50? 🥺
My friend bought one and the first time he fished with it three sections snapped so I won’t be buying one Think my xs70 is a better pole not broke at all
Really! I've had mine 18months and still going strong
Hi Joe,
Is this pole at home on a commercial for bagging carp?
Definitely!
@@MatchFishingFilms thanks Joe!
Hi, do this pole have the pole aligner bung? i think the x90 does but i cant find out if this model has too? Thanks
Yea 👍

whats the weight at 16 metres?
I've no idea. It feels good though
Will the response top kits fit it
Yes and the older GiS kits too
Best get my order in thanks
How noticeable is the difference with the response m70 at 13m?
How much is x70 worse than x90? Especially on the 13th?
The X70 and X90 are very similar at 13m stiffness wise. It's when you go longer the X90 gets better and better. The X70 is a significant upgrade on the M70!
