Love the action of the supera

[@richardbarrett4104]

Thanks Buddy, I'm after a margin feeder rod for big evening lumps. It has to be soft, but able to land big fish, and not flatten out. I'll try the matrix line, thanks.

A good review with your points well explained! I've been using my 10ft Mini CarbonActive for years and I love it, half tempted to swap it now but we'll see...

[@davidsmith2663]

Hang fire Gavin as Preston bringing out the Supera X range, which they are pretty excited about.I have had both Supera's and carbon actives and the difference isn't that great. The carbon actives were pretty revolutionary.

[@davidwynn3658]

Well thought out video paul,thanks for the info, but l think I'll stick with my acolyte plus, keep em coming.

Great review thank you I’ve got the ignition 9ft and 10ft and love them even though they are a lot cheaper

[@alanmeasures8337]

What's the action like on the 10ft ignition Mate after rod action like on the supera but like you say the ignition are cheaper Cheers

[@micklingard7799]

Good review and comparison of the two rods 😉👍

[@paulstacklereviews1695]

Thanks for the good feedback. Both rods are excellent, if I lost all my gear and had to start from scratch the Supera would be my first rod purchase.

[@davidsmith2663]

New Supera X due to hit the shops now Paul more expensive though. My 10' rods are MAP Ultra ll's l sold my Superas tp part fund the MAPs. I like the matt finish on my rods and l wouldn't swap them for any other. The top end Daiwas are lovely blanks but l'm a short handle fan and Daiwa tend to make theirs 40mm too long .

[@zlatkourukalo3804]

How many millimeters is the diameter of the blank just above the halter of the machine reel?

[@richardbarrett4104]

Paul, what lines do you, or Preston suggest for a main line on the 10' please? Nice video buddy.

[@paulstacklereviews1695]

I use Matrix Horizon 8lb line for all my carp work. It is only 0.20mm diameter which is comparable to 5 or 6lb in other brands. I have tried others but the Matrix has never let me down or caused me any difficulties, sinks well and takes some breaking when you hit a snag or cast into a tree!

[@cyberwess-007]

Thanks buddy, appreciate your insight...was thinking to match with a magitude 320 to have well balanced weight, considering i dont chuck further than 30m, would you suggest a 420?

[@paulstacklereviews1695]

Personally I use 420 size reels on all my feeder rods up to 50m, I feel they balance the rods better and have a bit more winding power.

[@keithhardy5931]

Going to get this rod for up to 40metres after seeing your review,,,,Do you think the Supera 11•6 rod would cast 65metres,,any thoughts please,, thankyou in advance

[@paulstacklereviews1695]

Not seen or handled the 11-6, certain it would cast a hybrid that far, they fly so well. I still love using the 10’ Supera, had a great day with medium carp and tench last week.

[@richardwebb6045]

I have the 11ft 6" Supera, its a great rod. However, I wouldn't want to be pushing 65m and your accuracy will also be affected as a result. Up to 50m I would say is more realistic.

[@alanmeasures8337]

His this still classed as a corbonactive Paul because that's all I can find on the internet

[@paulstacklereviews1695]

Yes, the word carbonactive is still part of its name.

[@alanmeasures8337]

@@paulstacklereviews1695 Thank you for that Paul
