Shimano - Rod TX-4 Carp 3,66m 12'0" 3,00lb 2pc

The TX-4 is the mid-priced Tribal TX rod range that is big on attitude and performance. Originally designed for long range fishing, the inclusion of shorter 9’ (2.74m) and 10’ (3.05m) now offers more choice for anglers who also fish smaller waters or from a boat. Fantastic value with performance to match anything in its price category.

Want a rod that will cast huge distances, still offer great fish-playing actions and won’t break the bank for a set of 3? The TX-4 is for you. The longer Intensity models are real powerhouses that will enable you to reach long range fish, whilst the 12’ (3.66m) models offer a fantastic balance of power and playability. And if range isn’t you thing, check out the shorter 9’ (2.74m) stalker and 10’ (3.05m) models, which are great for close and mid-range fishing on smaller waters, with fish-playing actions that inspire confidence and increase enjoyment.

Built on Full Carbon blanks with HPC (High Pressure Carbon) technology and Biofibre reinforcing, the TX-4 range squeezes every bit of performance out of the high quality carbon used in their construction. The Intensity models have recorded impressive casts well in excess of 200 yards, but it’s the tips that set the TX-4 apart as they offer forgiveness and cushioning not usually found in mid-priced long range rods. Fitted with Seaguide Stainless Steel SIC guides, a great looking Shimano Woven Carbon DPS reel seat, with small front EVA grip, and a slim shrink grip handle with in-built rest stopper, the TX-4 looks every bit as good as it performs.

The TX4 range of rods are the perfect choice for the all-round carp angler as they allow the option of adapting to whatever the fishing situation requires. Whether that be fishing zig rigs on one session, solid bags on another or casting to the horizon when fish may have pushed out.

With a conscientious price point for anglers without a limitless budget, these rods punch above there price class with serious performance achievable across the range. From the 10ft 2.75 rod which makes the perfect stalking or canal rod through to the intensity models that will cast a lead over 200 yards in the right hands.
