Product Information

Full details

The Matrix XTR400 Ultra Power 14.5m Pole Package is designed for serious commercial anglers who demand a blend of extreme strength and refined balance. Built from high-grade Japanese carbon fibre and enhanced with X-Graphene resin, this pole excels in high-pressure fishing environments where durability is paramount. While it offers industry-leading structural integrity, the heavy-duty construction means it is slightly heavier than ultra-slim competition poles, making it best suited for power-focused fishing rather than all-day light canal work.

FAQs

Does the package include everything I need to get started?

Yes, it includes 14.5m of pole, 2 match kits, 3 power kits, a cupping kit, and a mini extension in an XTR holdall.

Can I use this pole for canal fishing?

While it can be used for canal fishing, it is intentionally built for commercial power fishing and may be heavier than specialized canal poles.

What is the benefit of the depth markers?

They allow you to quickly replicate the exact depth of a successful swim if you accidentally move the float during a session.

How do I replace the PTFE bushes?

The pole comes with UK-manufactured PTFE bushes installed. If they require replacement, they can be gently heated and removed to fit new ones of the same diameter.

Is the pole compatible with other Matrix sections?

The XTR400 uses specific SLG joint architecture; please consult the official Matrix spare parts catalog to ensure section compatibility.

Troubleshooting

Joints feel 'sticky' or difficult to separate

Clean both the male and female sections with a dry cloth. If debris persists, use a very light application of high-quality pole wax.

Elastic is not retrieving smoothly through the side puller

Check the Revolve puller for any trapped debris or carbon burrs. Ensure the elastic is not twisted inside the top kit.

Sections feel loose after heavy use

Inspect joints for excessive wear. If excessive, contact your dealer regarding specialized joint care or replacement sections.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your XTR400, follow these maintenance protocols:

  1. Joint Cleaning: After each session, wipe down all male and female joints with a dry, lint-free cloth to remove grit or debris that can cause abrasive wear.
  2. Transportation: Always store the pole inside the provided XTR holdall to prevent crushing or external impact damage.
  3. Joint Protection: Use the integrated carbon weaved joint protectors as intended; avoid forcing joints together, which can cause internal cracking.
  4. Top Kit Prep: The UK-manufactured PTFE bushes are pre-installed, but ensure your elastic connectors are compatible with the Matrix Revolve side puller aperture before use.
  5. Elastication: For optimal performance, use high-grade hollow elastics matched to the power kit rating.
