Description
The Preston Innovations Monster XTR Pro Quivertip – 2oz is a precision-engineered replacement and alternative test-curve tip designed specifically for the high-powered Monster XTR Pro feeder rod series. Built to match the high casting demands and heavy payloads of the XTR Pro range, this 2oz solid carbon tip delivers the ideal balance between crisp, instant bite registration and the structural backbone required to launch heavy feeders without overloading the tip.
Equipped with oversized American Tackle Minima style guides, it allows thick monofilament mainlines, braided lines, and bulky shockleader knots to pass through smoothly during high-velocity casts.

Key Features & Performance
-
Oversized American Tackle Minima Guides: Wide-diameter guide rings drastically reduce line friction, allowing heavy monofilament mainlines and braid-to-mono leader knots to sail through cleanly.
-
Heavy Payload Clearance: The 2oz carbon backbone holds steady against undertow, wind-wave action, and heavy feeder compression without folding over in the rest.
-
Sharp Carbon Sensitivity: High-density carbon construction transmits subtle drop-back takes and tentative line plucks instantly, even when fishing at distance.
-
High-Visibility Tip Banding: Painted with bright, high-contrast rings for clear visual bite detection against dark water, trees, or glare.
-
Seamless Curve Blending: Precision spigot joint ground to integrate smoothly into the main carrier section, maintaining a continuous bending curve under load.
Ideal Applications
-
High Winds & Heavy Undertow: Ideal for holding line tension steady on windy days without false “wind bites” or pulling your feeder out of position.
-
Heavy Feeder Tactics: Essential when casting 50g–100g Method, Hybrid, and distance window feeders where a softer tip would collapse on the cast.
-
Distance Commercial & River Angling: Perfect for heavy commercial Method feeder work or river fishing in medium flow for carp, barbel, and bream.
Pro Tip
Leader Knot Alignment & Casting: When seating the 2oz quivertip into your XTR Pro carrier section, ensure the American Tackle Minima guides align perfectly with the main blank’s guide set. When using heavy 12lb–15lb mono shockleaders paired with braid, keep your leader knot compact (using an Albright or Mahin knot) to ensure it glides through the 2oz tip guides effortlessly during high-velocity casts.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this quivertip fit the new compact 3.0m (100g) and 3.3m (120g) Monster XTR Pro models?
Yes. The Monster XTR Pro quivertip range uses a standardized spigot diameter that fits right across the entire Monster XTR Pro feeder rod lineup.
Is the 2oz tip made from glass fiber or carbon?
The 2oz Monster XTR Pro tip is constructed from high-grade solid carbon, providing rapid tip recovery after the cast and crisp, immediate bite indication.
Is 2oz suitable for winter commercial feeder fishing?
While a 2oz tip can be used year-round for heavy Method feeder wrap-overs, a lighter tip (such as 1oz or 1.5oz) may be preferred during deep winter if you are targeting cautious skimmers or F1s where subtle bite registration is required.
