Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Commercial match anglers. You get the carp puller kits, potting gear and long-range capability needed for changing commercial conditions.
- Anglers wanting one broad pole package. The Silvers Kit, Commercial Kit and multiple carp kits cover a lot of jobs without building the setup piece by piece.
Maybe skip if
- Occasional short-pole anglers. If most of your fishing is down the edge or at modest range, you may not get enough use from the 16m package.
- Anglers after the lightest, simplest setup. All those kits, pots and extensions are useful, but they also mean more gear to store, carry and keep organised.

Quick verdict
Verdict
This is a cracking all-in-one package for the angler who wants one pole to cover silvers, commercial carp and long-range work without faffing about buying loads of extras. The spread of kits is the big draw.
It’s aimed at serious match and commercial fishing rather than the occasional short-session angler. If you’ll use the puller kits, potting setup and 16m reach, there’s plenty here to get properly stuck in.

Useful details such as PTFE puller slots, EVA nose cones and precise feed marker points give the package a properly considered feel.
The 16m-and-beyond rating, multiple kits and puller setup give it broad scope across commercial situations.
Accurate feeding, varied kit options and controlled carp playing can all help you adapt faster when the swim changes.
The kits are pre-bushed and the holdall helps, but managing a package with this many sections and options takes organisation.
The bundle includes six Match Carp Puller Kits, two longer kits, extensions, pots and a holdall, making it strong value for an angler who needs the lot.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Garbolino UK1 Accomplice HP 16m Silvers / Carp Pole Package
If you’re after one pole package that can handle silvers, commercial carp and a bit of proper long-range bosh, the Garbolino UK1 Accomplice HP 16m package is a very interesting bit of kit. It’s not a bare pole with one top kit and a polite handshake. There’s a serious pile of useful tackle in the bundle.
The headline is simple: it’s rated for fishing at 16m and longer. That gives you plenty of reach when the fish are sat off the island, on a far shelf or just beyond comfortable feeder range. You can still fish shorter, of course, but the package is built for anglers who want options when the swim changes.
The clever bit is the mix of kits. You get one 5.95m Commercial Kit and one 5.95m Silvers Kit, with the Silvers Kit supplied in the pole. That means the same package can be set up for a lighter day chasing roach, skimmers and small carp, then switched over for a proper commercial carp approach.
There’s also a half extension for 13m, 14.5m and 16m. That’s dead handy on venues where the fish are moving around during the day. You can start shorter and accurate, then add sections when the bites fade or the better fish push away from the bank. No need to immediately commit to full stretch and spend all day wrestling the pole.
For carp work, the six Match Carp Puller Kits are the real meat and potatoes. Puller kits let you put pressure on a lump while keeping the pole under control, rather than hanging on and hoping the elastic sorts everything out. Each kit features a PTFE puller slot, designed to give the elastic a smooth route when you’re playing fish through the top section.
The number 3 sections also have EVA nose cones. That’s the sort of small detail you’ll appreciate when you’re putting the pole together quickly, especially in a busy match or when the rods are off and you’re trying to get another rig in before the shoal drifts away. EVA gives the ends a bit of protection and makes handling less precious.
Another useful touch is the precise feed marker points on the sections. Accurate feeding is a huge part of pole fishing, particularly on commercials where a tight little patch can turn into a bite-time. Having clear reference points helps you repeat the same length and feeding position instead of guessing every time you ship out.
The Potkit adds another string to the bow. Two pots are included, so you can feed accurately with pellets, micros, maggots or other suitable bait without scattering the lot all over the swim. Potting is brilliant when fish are shy, the water is clear or you need to build a spot gradually. It’s also a tidy way to keep feeding controlled when the lake is full of hungry carp.
Everything comes in a deluxe holdall, which makes the package easier to keep together. That matters more than it sounds. Six carp kits, a Silvers Kit, a Commercial Kit, extensions and a Potkit can become a proper tackle jumble if they’re left loose in the garage. Keep each rig and elastic choice labelled, and this setup should be quick to grab for a match or a cheeky day session.
The UK1 Accomplice HP package is also compatible with all UK SERIES poles. That gives it some welcome flexibility if your pole collection grows or you already have another UK SERIES model. It’s a comprehensive setup, then, aimed at anglers who want to cover a lot of commercial situations from one carry bag. If that sounds like your fishing, it’s a bob-on way to build a capable pole armoury in one go.

Our take
The big angle
The UK1 Accomplice HP isn’t just a pole with one spare top kit chucked in. It’s a full fishing system, with six Match Carp Puller Kits, a separate Silvers Kit, a Commercial Kit and a Potkit included.
That makes it especially useful when the lake is throwing different jobs at you. Fish light for skimmers and roach, switch to a robust carp setup, or fish accurately over a long line when the margin swim isn’t playing ball.
What you’re buying
A full pole system rather than a bare pole
The package is built around fishing at 16m and longer, but the real attraction is the number of ways you can configure it. The 5.95m Commercial Kit gives you a carp-focused option, while the 5.95m Silvers Kit opens the door to lighter work. Both are pre-bushed and ready to be elasticated.
Six Match Carp Puller Kits give the package proper commercial-fishing bite. The PTFE puller slots are designed to help the elastic run smoothly as you control a fish. EVA nose cones on the number 3 sections add protection, while the precise feed marker points help you repeat your feeding distance accurately.
The half extension covers 13m, 14.5m and 16m. You also get a Potkit with two pots, plus a deluxe holdall to keep the growing collection of sections and kits together.
Worth knowing. The kits are ready to be elasticated, not presented as a one-size-fits-all finished setup. Choose your elastic and rig approach around the fish, venue and style of fishing you do.
Match and commercial use
Built for changing swims and changing fish
This package makes most sense for the commercial angler who might fish for silvers early, target carp later, or need to change tactics when the lake goes moody. The extra kits mean you can arrive prepared rather than trying to make one top kit do every job.
The Potkit is useful for accurate feeding over a long line or in the margins. Feed little and often, keep the pot steady and use the marker points to repeat the same distance. That sort of consistency can be the difference between nicking the odd fish and getting properly on the munch.
It’s less compelling for someone who only fishes small canals, tiny club lakes or short margins. There’s no point lugging a 16m-capable package around if your normal approach is two or three sections and a handful of pellets.
Quick answers
The bits anglers usually want to know
The package includes both carp and silvers options, so you’re not locked into one style. Use the Silvers Kit for a more delicate approach, then move to a Commercial Kit or Puller Kit when carp are cruising the feed.
The half extension is particularly useful because it gives intermediate lengths at 13m and 14.5m as well as the full 16m option. That helps you stay accurate and fish the shortest practical line, which is often easier on the arms and better for presentation.
Compatibility with all UK SERIES poles is another bonus. It means the package can fit into a wider UK SERIES setup rather than becoming a dead-end purchase if your tackle changes later.
Worth knowing. Label your pre-bushed kits by elastic and job. A bit of organisation before the match saves a load of faff when you’re trying to respond to a sudden run of carp or a shoal of silvers.
On paper
Pros & cons
What we like

- The separate Silvers and Commercial Kits broaden the pole’s fishing range.
- PTFE puller slots and EVA nose cones are handy details for regular commercial use.

Worth knowing
- It’s a sizeable investment if you mainly fish short or only need one basic carp kit.

- The 16m-and-beyond capability won’t be much use on small, tree-lined venues where you’re fishing close in.
