Barbel rod opinions please

[goldeneye243]

Hi, I am thinking about getting a barbel rod and was wondering between the following -

FOX Royale Barbel Specialist 12ft 1.75lbs
SHIMANO Vengeance Barbel Power 12ft
FOX Duo-Lite Specialist 12ft 1.75lbs/2.25lbs Twin Tip.

Is the fox duo-lite worth the extra money?

I am intending to use it as a light carp rod for floaters as well as for barbel if and when I get the chance!

Thanks!

I use FOX Royale Barbel Specialist 12ft 2.25lbs and can't fault them - covers all my situations on the Trent.

What rod did you end up with in the end and how well did it perform .
