⚡ At a Glance
- • Casting Performance: Medium-fast action blank for controlled presentations and moderate-range casts

An 8 ft, 4-weight IM7 24T plus 30T carbon fibre rod pairs with a die-cast aluminium 3/4wt large-arbour reel pre-loaded with WF3F line and backing. The kit also includes a waterproof fly box, multiple tapered leaders, tools and a protective case for easy transport.
Accurate, delicate presentations – Thanks to IM7 24T plus 30T carbon fibre blank
The blank uses pure IM7 24T combined with 30T carbon fibre to produce a medium-fast action, storing and releasing energy smoothly during the cast. Stripping guide inserts and chrome guides control line flow for steadier loops.
Gentle presentations land lightweight flies precisely, making it easier to tempt trout in small streams and pressured water.
Quick line retrieval – With large-arbour 3/4wt pre-loaded reel
Die-cast aluminium-alloy reel features a large-arbour design and anti-corrosion surface treatment, and arrives pre-loaded with WF3F-90FT fluorescent yellow fly line plus 20LB-50M backing. A 9ft 6X tapered leader is also fitted to the reel.
Faster retrieval reduces slack when fighting fish and speeds up fly changes, useful on days with active takes.
Ready-to-fish convenience – With complete accessory kit and protective case
Accessory pack includes a waterproof fly box, assortment of flies, six 9ft tapered leaders (two 4X, two 5X, two 6X), two zingers, line nipper, forceps and a P-type rod tube plus carrying case. The reel seat uses two lock rings to secure the reel.
Beginners can head straight to streams or lakes without sourcing extras, keeping initial outings simple and well organised.
