Rods

Middy never fail to impress with their rods and they continue to be the driving force behind cutting-edge developments, like this 13ft distance rod. It's part of the Quartix feeder range and is the first in the world to take advantage of a revolutionary new quiver construction technique, whereby the quivers are hollow, and spliced at the tip - the result is better casting accuracy, a smoother action and insanely sensitive bite registration! You get three of these hollow-spliced carbon quivers included (2oz/3oz/4oz), plus one 'super-sense' glass-spliced-into-carbon quiver (1oz). The rod is a super long true-cast muscle spine 3pc design and it has what Middy call a 'Zero Limits' range potential. Features include C-Pulse cast assist guides, Spiratech reinforcement technology at critical stress points, as well as a totally unique True-Crank butt handle design to assist accurate casting. This is, undoubtedly, amongst the very best distance feeder rods on the market today. It has a main line rating of 15lb, hook length rating of 10lb and a casting weight guide of 120g. As you can see, this rod is all about accuracy, strength and action. If you pick up a Quartix Zero Limits rod you will be blown away by its quality true-cast design and construction… then just wait until you have a bite on and see how sensitive the quivers are, it's something to behold.

This is the MKII version of Middy's incredibly popular Xtreme M1 pole, updated to have an improved action with even more stiffness and better balance too. Additionally, this MKII upgrade now features an S.I.C. puller slot on the second section. The M1 MKII is the perfect short super-strong 4m margin pole. It is constructed with G-Pulse Fighter-Carbon and is therefore light (weighing only 170g) and stiff, yet it possesses a massive world-strong 30 elastic rating. It's stronger than a beast and you really need to feel this pole to believe just how strong it is - it will handle margin monsters with ease. The M1 MKII is fully take-apart and breaks down into four sections, allowing total flexibility in the length-to-hand you to decide to fish at. It has an exceptional Slik-Slide finish to make shipping a dream. The butt section fits directly onto the fifth of the M2 or M3 models in this Xtreme MKII family - which means you could extend the length of the M1 if required, or use the M1 as a top-four kit on your M2 or M3 pole. This is also true if you want to fit this M1 MKII onto an original version M2 or M3, as this MKII range is built on the same mandrels as the original poles and thus backwards compatibility with all kits and sections is assured. This is great support from Middy for anyone who has an original M1, M2 or M3, as you'll be able to use your existing top kits with the new MKII range, or keep your original version pole for backup spares if you wish. The M1 is probably the strongest of the three models with slightly greater wall thickness and is therefore an ideal choice for margin work. The price point is ridiculously low for such a high quality construction pole.
