Literally, makes my old stihl and parker saws redundant  half the weight,

Very nice - I've been using my new pole saw in every swim this year, great bit of kit for the money, really sharp.  Will feel odd not putting the gardening kit in the car for next weeks trip as it's a day ticket and the tidying up has become part of the fishing tbh.

I was looking at a strimmer, trimmer, chain saw combo in spring but decided a bit much as I'm not even a bailliff lol  Wish I had really as getting near the river to perch and chubb fish is difficult before the dead of winter.

Had a huge willow branch come down behind my swim this summer too big for me to deal with so it's perching over the foot path looking dubious still.
