Shimano Tribal TX-5A Carp Rod

Description

The Shimano Tribal TX-5A carp rod sits within the Tribal Specimen range, built around a slim Nanosheet carbon blank reinforced with a 3K weave and Biofibre for added strength. Ultra-lightweight PacBay Minima guides improve the action and tip recovery speed on the cast, helping you get the most distance out of the rod, while a custom 3K reel seat and a 3K polymer Winn Grip handle complete the build. The range covers a mix of short-session and long-range work. The two 10ft models suit small waters or boat fishing, available with either a 3.00lb or Intensity action — the 10ft Intensity being the first of its kind in that length, capable of casting a 4oz lead over 200 yards. Three 12ft models include a distance-focused Intensity, and the 13ft Intensity is the option for maximum range. The tip action across the range gives a forgiving, fish-playing feel, while the Intensity models deliver the more powerful casting performance. - Slim Nanosheet carbon blank - 3K weave reinforcement - Biofibre for additional strength - PacBay Minima guides - Custom 3K reel seat - 3K polymer Winn Grip handle - 10ft models: 3.00lb or Intensity action - 12ft models: three options including Intensity - 13ft model: Intensity action
