    Great Video mate. I have a mixture of the Preston Compact as shown and the previous large Matrix with the spring button to collapse the legs. Find both very good. Must admit I do like the New Matrix Compact ones.Well presented mate.

    Hi all. Sorry can't be with you tonight....joys of being on nights. I have the MVR Rollers. Best thing I have invested in. Very sturdy and well constructed.

    Have got the matrix double compact version for about 3 months now, replacing the carperlan rollers I had before, have to say I'm very positive about the quality, stability and type of material on the roller. Compared to my old rollers it is very nice to have a more compact version if you're always carrying a lot of gear. Only downside I found is that if you're a tall guy like myself (1.95m) they indeed are a bit low. Just ordered the extension legs to see if they can solve the issue.

    I like my somehat compact MIDDY Hi-Viz 50cm Original Pole Rollers, but often thought of needing a roller with a central upright, splitting the total width in two sides - very useful if your sections are getting hammered around in the breeze 👍

    • @FirstTimeFishing
      @FirstTimeFishing  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I love the middy hi-viz! Brilliant roller, but pretty expensive for the size Bri, I think they’re like £70 for the 50cm… but they look the nuts! 😆 BB

    I recently bought the preston rollers,
    I'd had maver rollers for years,
    Very happy with the preston, the ones I have have curved ends on them
    Levels in the centre,
    I'd recommend these,
    Matrix rollers look good though,
    Good video bb

      There are lots of good ones out there Ian… I believe the NuFish have a good write-up… but I’ve contacted them so many times to borrow some gear, but they never get back to you, so I’ve not had a real play with them unfortunately 🤷🏻‍♂️ BB

    I don't know if Matrix maintaining it's "quality" standard is necessary a good thing tbh... I had the butt rest, feeder arm and keepnet arm taking the proverbial dump on me after no more than 8 sessions... I used to be a big fan but after that I never purchased another matrix product.

    • @FirstTimeFishing
      @FirstTimeFishing  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That’s interesting Andrei… I’ve had an issue with a few Matrix products too, the biggest being some pre-tied hooks… but I have to admit, the Pole rollers feel well made and very stable, great comment! It’s good to know about problems people have experienced! 👍🏻 BB
