Maver-backed Callum Dicks explains how his Darkside 3 has done everything he has asked of it,whatever the type of fishing.
A versatile pole is essential for the different types of fishing that I do. It is important that the pole is strong enough to handle catching barbel and other big fish, using floats up to 50g, which are often needed while fishing European venues.
It also has to be light and responsive for catching F1s and roach, which is something much more associated with fishing in the UK. I can honestly say that, over the last three years, my Darkside 3 has performed exceptionally wherever I have deployed it.
