Andrew. I swopped them for 2lb Torrix.Having beaten a 20 plus Carp in a raging flood on the Stour, pulling it across the flow and up to the net due to restricted access below, on my Torrix 11' 1.75 I have no reservations about its power to cope with any Barbel ( or Tench). I suppose it might not be the best for slinging big leads about but that isn't the way I fish really. Hope you find the Chimera 3's are to your liking in time. I love my Chimera 2's for the Severn.![]()
