This beautiful actioned 12ft rod is core to the GTD range, so it had to be absolutely perfect!

LENGTH: 12ft
TEST CURVE: 3.6 lb

The GTD rod offers the essential crisp feel thanks to a lovely responsive blank. A great rod needs to do more than cast – it needs to feel right when you’re playing fish to the net too and this is the other key element that the GTD rod fulfils with ease. Somehow the blank balances casting power with a precise feel that is just right! And yet, it still maintains a superb playing curve that is perfect for almost any angling scenario.

To put this into angling context, the responsive medium fast action ensures you can control casts accurately with a range of weights, without any vagueness that can impair that exacting feel that may affect accuracy. This is a true angler’s rod.

Essentially, the GTD is a medium-fast action rod – which means it offers fast tip recovery and effortless accurate casting without being unforgiving or overly stiff. The combination of mandrel and materials used in its manufacture means the finished rod offers a direct, responsive connection and feels superb when you’re playing a carp!

This GTD is manufactured exclusively for Gardner Tackle, to exacting tolerances and finished with a clean and uncluttered build. The lightweight 3K-reinforced blank has been designed, developed and tested to be suitable for the full range of carp fishing applications.
GTD rods feature:

  • Full hi-gloss finish with 3K ballistic finish to just above the overfit joint.
  • 3K tweel finishes just above the overfit joint. *This allows a faster and more responsive tip action by keeping tip weight to an absolute minimum.

  • Super lightweight Minima guides are combined with a conventional anti-frap tip ring.
  • Full hi-gloss finish helps protect all components and maintains looks/performance.
  • A 3K carbon Fibre machined DPS reel seat to match the rods 3k tweel/finish.
  • ‘Line friendly’ low profile carbon line clip whipped in position to assist bite indication.
  • The GTD features a clutter free, tidy build specification.
