The Purist BX1 Barbel rod range combines remarkable value with understated, classic cosmetics and class-leading actions. Available in four perfectly balanced models, the Purist BX1 is a great choice for anglers on a tight budget. If you are an angler looking for a specialist barbel rod on a relatively tight budget, you’ll struggle to find anything to match the Purist BX1. There are four models in the range to cover everything from small intimate river fishing with small leads and feeders, up to the largest of rivers using large leads, PVA bags and outsized feeders. The superb fish-playing actions are complemented by the classy graphics, delivering a rod that fishes as good as it looks. At the heart of the Purist BX1 Barbel is a full carbon blank. This has been developed to combine the power required to cope with hard fighting fish and casting large leads and feeders, with a finely tuned tip to enhance bite detection and compensate for powerful lunges, especially at close range. The lightest 1.75lb model is perfect for small rivers, the mid-range 2.25lb is a great all-rounder and the two Intensity models will cope with the largest rivers in the most extreme conditions. All models are fitted with a classic full cork handle, custom DPS reel seat and Shimano Hardlite guides which reinforce the remarkable value. As a final touch of class the tip has a short white section for better visibility and the handle is finished with an alloy butt cap.
