Shimano Tribal TX-5A Carp Rod
The latest version of the iconic TX-5 now features even better specifications and looks than ever before! The TX-5A model is equipped with a blank utilizing Nanosheet technology, which offers up to 35% more power while simultaneously reducing the weight by about 15% compared to other carp rod models. This has been achieved through modern processes that allow for the use of a smaller amount of resin binding the carbon fibers together, thanks to their specifically selected weave. Additionally, the blank is subjected to the Shimano HPC hardening process under pressure, ensuring that the resin is evenly distributed between the fibers - this ultimately affects the excellent performance and responsiveness of the blank. To further enhance the quality of finish and the performance of the blank, it is finished with a 3K mat and includes Biofibre reinforcement for increased durability. The PacBay Minima guides used in this model not only complement the rod well, but also aid in dampening the blank during casting due to their lightweight design. The reel seat, known from the previous model, is now finished with a WinnGrip 3K polymer mat. Such a finish not only gives the rod a unique look but is also non-slip, which we appreciate during the fight with the fish. The rod is available in as many as 8 different models, allowing for effective carp fishing with every method - from boat set delivery to casting to the furthest distances. An interesting model that Shimano has decided to release is the 10-foot Intensity version! Despite the 3m length of this model, tests have consistently achieved distances of around 200 yards with a 4-ounce lead!
