"The Tamer X-Wrap 11’ 1 1/2lb has been used to great effect with braided main line on small snaggy rivers such as the Teme. It's soft enough in the tip to cushion the hammer blows of hard fighting barbel but has the guts to exert control when needed".

Steve Pope - Chairman Barbel Society

Designed especially for the demands of the modern tench angler the blanks are finished in a luxurious 'Tinca' Olive Green colour in matt. The 12' Tench Special has been designed mainly for feeder and lead work and will handle the methods in use on many big waters.

It will also cope with float work but for the specialist angler wanting more sensitivity we have designed the Special Tench Float that will cope with extracting large tench from weedy waters.
