Featuring burgundy whipping with gold trim, a slimline cork handle, and an elegant 1.5k full carbon weave, this three rods in one setup provides exceptional versatility for anglers targeting barbel, carp, and specimen tench across rivers and lakes.Built on a powerful butt section with a medium-fast action, the 1.5k carbon construction delivers rapid tip recovery for smooth, precise casting and high line control. The rod comes complete with three dedicated top sections: a 1.75lb test curve top, a heavy 2.2lb test curve top, and a 1.5lb Power Quiver section supplied with 2oz glass, 4oz carbon, and 6oz carbon tips.

Pro TipUse the heavy 2.2lb top section when targeting big river barbel in high-water autumn or winter conditions, pairing it with heavy leads or large blockbuster feeders.

• Big River Barbel & Chub: Ideal for heavy river feeder fishing and bouncing leads through strong currents on venues like the Trent, Severn, or Ribble.

The 11 6 Old School model uses lighter test curves (1.1lb, 1.25lb, and lighter quivertips) tailored for delicate finesse fishing.Are the quivertips interchangeable with other Korum rods?The included 2oz glass, 4oz carbon, and 6oz carbon tips are designed specifically for the 1.5lb Power Quiver carrier section included in this 12 model.What size reel matches best with this 12ft blank?A 5000 or 6000 size reel (such as the Korum Neoteric LC 5500/6500 or Latitude FD 5000/6000) balances the 12ft length perfectly for casting distance and high-torque retrieves.
