The full length hard grade EVA handles are ultra slim with a laser etched butt cap and ESP have used a black DPS reel seat with a neat flared burnt cork trim above the handle to provide a classic, understated custom built look.
The rods include their bespoke moulded line clips which are whipped on to the optimum level along the clip to provide a secure grip on the main line without any damage. These clips provide extra resistance on a take and you can sometimes hear that satisfying ‘crack’ as the line exits the clip with a carp going in the opposite direction!
The 4K’s have lightweight stainless twin leg guides with a 40mm butt down to a 12mm tip. The tip guide has an anti-frap frame with a slick SiC ceramic.
There are three models in the range which are all 10 foot in length and available in 3lb, 3¼lb or 3½lb test curves.
The 3lb model is suited to smaller venues and for stalking. It's perfect for the angler that likes a mellow playing action but still with plenty of reserves of power in the butt.
The 3¼lb is the perfect all-rounder, from fishing under the rod tip to launching a lead into the distance. It has enough power to bully fish in thick weed while still retaining a comfortable playing action.
The 3½lb is a real powerhouse and the rod for consistent distance casting, using PVA bags at range, or for fishing on the continent, especially when using a boat where the shorter length can be a huge advantage compared with a 12ft rod.
In addition to their excellent performance when catching carp, another big advantage of the 4K’s is their compact pack down length of just 50” (127cm). This makes them perfect for small vehicles especially when combined with the bespoke Quickdraw rod sleeves which provide ample protection and make multiple rods and accessories easy and comfortable to carry.
