Right then ---this question comes up again and again

Margin poles are normally around 7m long a Match pole is anything from 11-16 metres

A match pole in it's essence is stiffer than a margin pole because you've got that much more length to use to subdue a fish before you land it

A Margin pole is softer so you can Yank and bank

A power top for a match pole is only thicker (at the tip) to take bigger elastics nothing else so it is as stiff as the rest of the pole the large elastic takes the strain
