The TX-4 is the mid-range model in the Tribal TX series, focusing on high performance at a reasonable price. The rod is designed to deliver exceptional casting performance thanks to advanced carbon fiber technology – including T1100G High Modulus Carbon in the rod tip for increased speed and response. This is a rod that gives you maximum value and performance in its price range.
If you're looking for a rod that can cast long distances, handle big fish, and doesn't cost a fortune, the TX-4 is a great choice. The longer Intensity models are real powerhouses that reach fish from a distance, while the 12' (3.66 m) model provides the perfect balance of strength and feel. For shorter casts and smaller waters, there are also 9' and 10' models - perfect for stalking and boat fishing.
The TX-4 is built on a Full Carbon blade with HPC technology (High Pressure Carbon), reinforced with Biofibre, Diaflash and T1100G carbon fibre in the tip. The result is a stylish rod that squeezes every ounce of casting capacity out of your technique. The Intensity models have been documented casting over 180 metres – but it is above all the feel in the tip that sets the TX-4 apart from other mid-range rods: fast response, forgiving action and damping that gives confidence when trolling.
Equipped with Seaguide Zirconia guides, a sleek 3K carbon weave Shimano reel seat with EVA front grip and a slim shrink tube handle with built-in rod stop, this is a visually striking rod that delivers on all counts.
