Shimano Carp Rod TX-9B 13ft 3.5lb Intensity

The Tribal TX-9 visually captures the spirit and history of traditional carp fishing to perfection. Combining an understated ‘retro’ look, with the very latest carbon technology, the TX9 is a ‘modern classic’ which exudes confidence, quality, and game changing long range casting performance. If you prefer ‘classic’ looking carp rods, but want all of the benefits that the latest carbon technology can deliver, you’ll love the TX-9. The slim blank perfectly hides the awesome casting power available, whilst the cork handle and Fuji DPS reel seat embraces the tradition of bygone days. It’s an enviable combination that says a lot about the type of angler you are and will certainly make a powerful statement, wherever you fish. The remarkable casting performance, especially of the Intensity models, is sure to impress you. The High Modulus Full Carbon blank is enhanced with Shimano’s exclusive Spiral X technology. This combination is almost without equal and not only offers longer casting distances, it produces greater accuracy too. To complement the power, the latest Kigan 3D Zirconia guides provide lightness and friction reducing performance; whilst the Fuji DPS reel seat will hold your reel with assured security. There are five models in the range, which will cover all of your fishing. A stunning 10' model is designed for small waters or boat fishing and has the exclusive Intensity action – perfect for larger fish and tight swims. There are three 12' models, including a distance defying Intensity, and for the ultimate in long range casting, a 13' Intensity which would not be out of place in the hands of the World’s best tournament casters. As a combination of traditional ‘retro’ looks and class-leading casting performance, the TX9 really is as good as it gets.
