Matrix XTR700 Elite Pro 16.0m Package

The Matrix XTR700 Elite Pro 16.0m Pole Package is the flagship model in the Matrix pole range, designed for the professional match angler who demands the highest level of performance, reach, and versatility. This pole is engineered to be a true competition machine, combining exceptional power with the lightness and rigidity required for winning at the highest level of UK and European match fishing.

Core Specifications and Technology

• Elite Pro Blank Construction: The XTR700 is built with a proprietary high-grade, super-stiff carbon blank. This is a significant step up, providing an incredible blend of power and responsiveness. The pole’s rigidity ensures that every movement is transmitted directly to the rig, allowing for precise bait presentation and positive hook sets at extreme range. Despite its immense strength, the blank is surprisingly lightweight, reducing fatigue during long and intense matches.
• Length and Versatility:
  • Length: 16.0m (16.0m pole with the power kit fitted)

  The 16.0m length is the benchmark for high-level match fishing. It provides the reach needed to fish to islands, far banks, and mid-water features on the largest commercial carp lakes and expansive natural venues like rivers and canals. This extended length gives the angler a significant advantage, allowing them to target areas that are often out of range for their competitors.

• Comprehensive Pole Package: The XTR700 Elite Pro 16.0m package is a complete fishing system straight out of the box, offering incredible value and a full, ready-to-go setup. The package typically includes:
  • Matrix XTR700 Elite Pro 16.0m Pole: The main pole sections.
  • Multiple Power and Match Kits: The package includes a generous number of both pre-bushed Power Kits and lighter Match Kits. This versatility allows the angler to set up multiple rigs for everything from fishing for big commercial carp to targeting silverfish on a canal.
  • Cupping Kit: A dedicated cupping kit for accurately feeding bait at your fishing spot.
  • Extensions: A mini extension is often supplied, providing extra length when you need it or to protect the pole’s butt section.
  • Pole Holdall: A high-quality holdall for secure and easy transport of the pole and all its accessories.
• Advanced Features: The pole features reinforced joints for added durability and a high-quality finish for smooth and fast shipping. The joints are designed to be strong and reliable, with a tight fit that prevents pole ‘bounce’ and ensures a solid feel, even at full length.

Why It’s Perfect for UK Match Fishing

The Matrix XTR700 Elite Pro 16.0m is the ultimate choice for the competitive UK angler, offering several key advantages:

1. Uncompromising Performance: The “Elite Pro” designation signifies that this pole is built for performance at the highest level. The perfect balance of lightness and rigidity allows for rapid and precise shipping, a crucial factor when every second counts.
2. Extended Reach and Versatility: The 16.0m length is a game-changer on venues where long-range fishing is the most productive method. The inclusion of both Power and Match Kits in the package means you can use the same pole for different scenarios, from handling big carp to delicately presenting a rig for a shy-biting roach.
3. Ready-to-Go System: The comprehensive package means you have everything you need to start fishing straight away, without the hassle and cost of buying additional kits. This makes it a fantastic value for money option for anglers looking for a complete and reliable pole setup.
4. Durability and Reliability: Match fishing is physically demanding on equipment. The XTR700 is built to withstand the rigours of modern commercial and natural venue fishing, with reinforced joints and a tough carbon construction that will stand up to the punishment of shipping and unshipping a big fish.
