The TX-5 is the perfect addition to the popular Tribal Specimen range of rods. One of the finest carp fishing rods available on the market, it features the latest carbon technology and offers an amazing balance between finesse and performance.If the appearance of your rods is as important to you as performance, you won't be disappointed with the TX-5, it's sensational and will be the envy of autres. And the performance is simply incredible. Remarkably light and fine, the powerful casting performance of the Intensity models will open up a new realm for your long-distance fishing, while the fine nature of the tip action on all models inspires angler confidence to enjoy the experience to the full.At the heart of the TX-5 is a Nanosheet carbon blank which is reinforced with 3K weave and also contains Biofibre for extra strength. The addition of lightweight PacBay Minima ultra rings improves tip action and retrieve speed when casting, ensuring you maximize your distance. And if that's not enough, a custom 3K reel seat and Winn Grip in 3K polymer complete the rod. There are five models in the range to cover all your fishing needs. Two 10-foot models are designed for small waters or boat fishing, and are offered with either a 3.00 lb or Intensity action. This is the first Intensity action we've made in a 10' length and although short, it can throw a 4oz sinker over 200m! There are three 12' models, including the Intensity, which cuts distances, but for the nec more ultra long-range casting, opt for the 13' Intensity and reach distances you've only dreamed of.As a combination of looks and performance, the TX-5 reaches new heights and offers a sense of quality so often lacking in mid-priced fishing rods.
