Oculus 999 or Darkside series 2

[fishing_mad]

I'm looking at buying a new pole. An I'm looking at these two offerings as I can get them both for around 1k.

I've read good reviews of the oculus but I can't find anything reference the darkside series 2. Both come with very similar packages so it's down to which is better at 14.5m+

Or infact any other 1k or less poles.

Can't comment on the Darkside David but I've had my 999 for around a year now and I'm very happy with it as it's handled everything that I've used it for.[]

I nearly bought the 999 last year, felt really really good for the price, only ended up getting the Middy Xp35-2 as Bobcos had it at 799 and couldnt feel a great deal of difference between that and the Maver.
