The Fox rangemaster20 that I've got is 90cm long and highly recommended, although I have broken it and fixed it a couple of times, they do not like being trodden on or having loaded rod bags dropped on them! It's currently broken beyond repair as it was strapped to my bike and I crushed it while getting my leg over .

Mine came in a case, which is nice but not quite up to the job of protecting it from a bit of a clumsy idiot. Where I'm fishing currently I can get away with using a catapult but would buy another if needed.

Also, as far as range goes, I've put 18mm boilies 120yards with it on a calm day, as per google maps.

I'm thinking 1200 will be the limit for one handed use. Thanks for putting me onto these mate.

Mate I need to thank you again. Just got one delivered. Absolutely fantastic. Every bit as capable as the ACA. I cant believe I'd not heard of these things. Cheers

99 quid buddy. Pricey for a stick but you can tell where it goes. Real quality and it really does put them out a long way
