If you are new to carp fishing, or perhaps an occasional carp angler who wants a new set of rods at an extremely low price, the TX-1 takes some beating for its cost to quality ratio. Available in a wide range of options including both modern slim shrink tube or classic cork handle variants, this well thought-out range not only looks fantastic it will certainly meet and probably exceed your expectations. All models have a progressive action that is enjoyable to use when playing hard fighting carp of all sizes. The Full Carbon blank of the TX-1 delivers great performance for such a low cost range.

Available in a wide range of lengths, from 9’ (2.74m) up to 13’ (3.96m), various options are available including 2 and 3-piece designs and also classic cork handle options. Fitted with sleek Seaguide Zirconia guides and a Shimano custom designed DPS reel seat the TX-1 is takes value for money to a completely new level.
