Carp rods
CHIMERAS are a range of Carp rods that start at medium range and go on and on, depending on your casting ability.
The CHIMERA blanks pioneered the combination of UD carbon and two weaves concept of construction, which is where the name CHIMERA originated. The CHIMERA was a mythical beast combining lion, goat and serpent. The UD carbon is our serpent and the lion and the goat the 3K and 1K plain carbon weaves, used in the butt and tips respectively. This construction gives you POWER, STRENGTH and TORSION CONTROL.
CHIMERA carp rods are available in a wide range of test curves, from the almost mellow 12ft; 2.5lb to the awesome 13ft; 3.5lb. All look stunning with their almost holographic look and can cast and play fish effortlessly.
The 12ft; 3lb. is the best all-rounder - it will cope with a wide range of casting weights and has a forgiving tip when playing big fish in the margins.
The 3.25lb; and 3.5lb; models are great for big pits, long range fishing.
Prices start at £210.00 for the 12ft; 2.5lb. model to £263.00 for the 13ft; 3.5lb. model (Factory Built).
Fitted with Kigan SiC guides, abbreviated handles, Fuji reel
seat, stainless trims and supplied with a quality rod bag.
TORRIX are a range of carp rods
evolving from CHIMERAS, by subtly tweaking tapers, resin content,
fibre angle, and fibre mix, you gain a significant step
forward.
TORRIX is manufactured from super flat, super wide, lightweight pre-pregs to allow new, radical, lay-ups
TORRIX is slimmer and lighter but has the strength and torsion control of larger diameter blanks. Tip mass is down and this is evident in the feel when you pick the rod up and swing your first lead.
Five test curves are available at 12ft. and three at 13ft.
12ft; 2.5lb. 12ft; 3lb. 12ft; 3.25lb. 12ft; 3.5lb.
13ft; 3lb. 13ft; 3.25lb. 13ft; 3.5lb.
As with the CHIMERA all look stunning with their almost holographic look.
The 12ft; 3.25lb. is the most popular choice, coping well with a wide range of casting weights and, in the right hands, awesome power to hit those hard to reach spots.
Fitted with Fuji SiC guides, abbreviated handles, Fuji reel seat, stainless trims and supplied in a quality rod bag. (images on the right are Fuji reel seats)
Prices start at £254.00 for the 12ft; 2.5lb.model to £272.00 for the 13ft; 3.5lb. model (Factory Built).
NEW TORRIX 'TE' 12'6"; 3.5lb.tc (OUR BEST SELLER).
Casting guru Terry Edmonds helped develop this great NEW carp rod. Starting with the 12' 3.25lb.tc.Torrix, the brief was to get more distance without losing the 'feel' and fish playing qualities. The result is a 12'6", 3.5lb.tc.Torrix that does everything a carp angler demands. Like all in the Torrix family - slim - woven fabric finish - high modulus, low resin construction - advanced lay-up and ultra lightweight carbon scrims.
Available now - factory built £279 or for something really special - Custom Built from £350.
