Greys Prodigy TX Specimen

These high modulus, optimum performance specimen rods are fitted out with full sets of hard wearing SIC line guides and offer a popular range of lighter test curves. The two-piece blanks are finished in an unobtrusive matt grey, with quality cork handles and secure screw locking reel seats. They also feature discreet graphics, hinged hook keeper rings and etched butt caps - all hallmarks of Greys dedication to superior quality.

PRODIGY TX SPECIMEN 11' 1lb

When the discerning angler wants a slightly shorter light specimen rod, Greys discovered the majority of current designs had rather pokey actions and surprisingly heavy test curves. The Prodigy TX 11ft Specimen offers a much more forgiving action, along with a lightweight nature.

This delightful rod can be applied to a wealth of applications, including stalking big fish in the margins, free lining, float fishing, legering, feeder fishing, spinning and light carp tactics...the list is endless! It's also perfect for confined swims, travelling light, roving and a host of other situations. The forgiving through action allows tackle to be scaled down when fish are proving tricky to tempt, while the high modulus carbon blank and braid friendly SIC line guides can equally cope with presenting stepped up lines and larger hooks.

There's plenty of crisp casting and hook setting power, combined with a lovely anti-lock action when the streamlined blank is put under pressure. A secure screw lock reel seat, quality cork handle, hinged hook keeper ring, laser etched butt cap and subtle matt grey finish complete a superb package.

PRODIGY TX SPECIMEN 12' 1.25lb 

This 1.25lb test curve 12ft specimen rod is perfect for big fish river and lake fishing. It has a lightweight, well-balanced nature and will comfortably perform like a traditional Avon design when trotting big floats or touch legering. Also featuring super crisp casting power, this classy rod readily covers light stillwater carp methods, being capable of casting good distances with medium sized leads or various types of feeders.

PRODIGY TX SPECIMEN 12' 1.50lb

Stepping up a gear, this 1.50lb test curve 12ft Specimen rod offers increased casting and fish playing power, while remaining amazingly lightweight and responsive. It will make a great light carp rod on smaller venues, eliminating hook pulls with its forgiving action. Such a versatile rod will also easily slot into some serious barbel or chub fishing on rivers, along with many other wide ranging applications.

PRODIGY TX SPECIMEN 12' 1.75lb

With more in-built power again, but still featuring a superb anti-lock fish playing action, this 1.75lb test curve 12 footer is a must buy for the angler targeting big fish, particularly on smaller venues where higher test curve carp rods prove too over-gunned. It might feel lightweight in the hand, but this crisp action Prodigy TX Specimen rod can launch feeders and leads out a long way. Don't ignore this design for big barbel and chub either, especially in rain swollen, or fast flowing rivers.
