Shimano Rod TX-5A Carp Intensity 10ft 3.50lb

The Tribal TX-5 fits perfectly into the highly regarded Tribal carp rod range. The TX5 is one of the best looking carp rods, packed with the latest carbon technology and offering a stunning balance of finesse and performance. If the look of your rods is just as important to you as the performance, then you won't be disappointed with this top rod. They look sensational. In addition, the performance is simply great! The TX5 are remarkably light and slim. The powerful casting performance of the Intensity models is there for long range fishing, while the playing action ensures that the angler can fully enjoy the experience.

The TX5 is constructed from a slim Nanosheet carbon blank that is reinforced with a 3K weave and contains Biofibre for added strength. The addition of ultra-lightweight PacBay Minima guides improves action and recovery speed when casting, maximizing your distance. And if that wasn't enough, custom 3K reel seats and 3K polymer Winn Grip handle complete the rod. What else do you want? There are six models in the range, which will cover all your situations. Three 10' models are designed for boat fishing and canal fishing and are available in the most popular 2.75lb, all round 3.00lb version and an Intensity model for fishing fast flowing rivers etc. This is the first Intensity action we have made in a 10' length and although short in length it can cast a 100g lead over 180m! There are four 12' models, including the 2.75lb and 3.00lb versions, but for the ultimate in long range casting, go for the throwing gun - the 13' Intensity and reach distances you've only dreamed of. As a combination of looks and performance, the TX5 reaches new levels and has a sense of quality that is so often lacking in mid-range rods.
