Hi Peter, you could fit the beam direct on to the fibreglass pole no problem at all.

it would be better as the beam would be in free space and have no metal to affect it..
especially if it was vertical..

If it were to be mounte d horizontal then you could mount it on a metal pole without any problems, But if you want it vertical, then the metal pole will affect the beam, So yes the fibreglass pole would be much better, also your coax can affect the beam angle from the yagi, Try and bring the coax down the boom and out past the reflector so as to not detune the antenna, or bring it out horizontaly from the elements... but this isnt easy with a verically polorized yagi.
