I have the Free Spirit CTX in 12' 3.25lb and love them. Action of rod makes casting accurately really easy, they bend right through the rod when playing fish.
Personally struggle beyond 20 wraps with a solid bag, can do 23-25 with lead only. But I think that's reasonable for test curve etc.
Normally a deal on for set of 3 to get for well less than your budget.

So not ‘Carp Fished’ for over 10 years, I sold my rods had century ng’s 3.25lb never really liked them always thought they were too stiff, had a lovely set of armalites 2.75 ( the green ones) sold them on also..
Probably looking at 3.25tc 12’ circa £200 a rod, particularly like the look of the cf-x range at the tackle box?? How do the newer rods shape up these days, any recomendations welcome, cheers
