Rod Tribal TX-Ultra A

The Tribal TX Ultra is a remarkable example of advanced rod engineering. Unparalleled casting performance, created by a combination of three exclusive Shimano carbon technologies, combined with excellent fish-playing characteristics makes this range the go-to choice for anglers who want maximum casting distance without compromise.
If you are looking for the ultimate long range rod, you’ll find nothing better than the TX Ultra. This is the rod that will enable you to hit distances you once thought unatainable, with an accuracy that maximises your technique. The futuristic design, with subtle graphics, looks sensational on the bank and is an investment that you will never regret. For maximum range and heavy leads, the Intensity versions deliver record braking performance, whilst the 3.00lb and 3.25lb are more suited to medium and smaller leads. Whichever you choose you can be sure that there is nothing better.


The record braking casting perfromance of the TX Ultra is generated by the use of three exclusive SHIMANO carbon technologies: Spiral X Core for torsional rigidity, Hi-Power X for blank twist reduction and a futuristic Carbon Monocoque handle for faster power transfer and improved feel when fish-playing. These technologies also reduce the overall weight of the rod, making it the lightest carp rod in the TX range, which results in increase tip speed when used with maximum casting force and more 'feel' when playing fish, especially at close range.
Casts in excess of 220 yards have been achieved using the 13' INT model with a 4.5oz (128g) lead and not only is the TX Ultra longer casting, it is also unnervingly accurate and remarkably forgiving when playing fish, especially in the 3.0lb and 3.25lb test curves.
All models are fitted with premium Kigan 3D guides (50mm butt/16mm anti-frap tip) and an exclusive custom designed CI4+ reel seat, which completely locks the reel to the Carbon Monocoque handle for maximum stability under extreme pressure.


Mike Dagnall - Most of my fishing is undertaken at ultra-long range, a technique I thoroughly enjoy but one that requires the tackle to be pushed to its limits. The TX Ultra 13ft Intensity is the perfect choice for me as it is a light, but very powerful rod which casts very accurately at ultra-long distances, all whilst remaining a pleasure to play fish on. In testing, it outperformed all other rods in its class with casts to over 230 yards.
It gives me the distance, accuracy and fish playing ability to put more fish on the bank.

SPIRALXCORE_RD
SPIRAL X CORE

Spiral X Core is Shimano's newest and most advanced blank construction technology. By integrating Spiral X carbon tape construction with Toray Nanoalloy® technology, Spiral X Core constructed blanks benefit from up to 10% more torsional rigidity and up to 15% more compressional rigidity than rods built with Spiral X. Shimano is unique to the market by applying by high-strength carbon tape with this unique and patented Spiral X construction.


FULLCARBONMONOCOQUE_RD
FULLCARBON MONOCOQUE

The Full Carbon Monocoque Grip is the evolution of the Carbon Monocoque Grip. The complete grip is made of a hollow carbon construction, eliminating the use of EVA. This results in a very lightweight construction which is also more sensitive. Compared to the normal Carbon Monocoque Grip the sensitivity has increased with 128%.


HI-POWERX_RD
HI-POWER X

Hi-Power X construction uses diagonally-wrapped carbon tape to form an array of "X" shapes on the rod blank's outermost layer. The width of the tape, its winding angle and the part of the rod being wrapped are fine-tuned according to the target fish species. This manufacturing process allows Shimano to adjust these wraps during construction for precise actions, enhanced overall strength and added twist resistance. In short, Hi-Power X construction delivers sharp and crisp rod control for the angler.


CI4+_RD
CI4+

CI4 is a resin material reinforced with carbon fiber that is lighter and has a higher strength than conventional resin material. CI4+ is an advanced version of the original CI4 material.The rigidity and durability have been greatly improved from original CI4 material while maintaining the lightness of the material, making it possible to reduce the size and weight of the reel.
