Product Information

The Fox Horizon X4-S Rods sit in Fox's carp rod range as a high modulus carbon option for anglers who want a crisp blank, full shrink handle and understated cosmetics. The family covers standard 10ft, 12ft and 13ft carp rods, plus Explorer and floater models.

Construction uses ultra high modulus carbon with a full 2k carbon wrap. Fox pairs this with Multidirectional Carbon Cloth, which is used to reduce blank twist during the cast and keep the rod family focused on controlled casting.

The range includes 10ft 3lb and 3.5lb models, 12ft 3lb, 3.25lb and 3.5lb models, 13ft 3.5lb and 3.75lb models, plus 8-10ft Explorer options in 3lb and 3.5lb. The wider family also includes 12ft and 13ft 4lb versions and a 12ft 2.25lb floater rod.

Guide layouts vary by length: 10ft rods use 40mm to 12mm guides, while 12ft and 13ft rods use 50mm to 16mm guides. Anti-tangle guides with ceramic inners are used across the family. Fuji 18mm DPS reel seats, gunsmoke fittings, gunsmoke whippings and full Japanese shrink wrap handles complete the build. For anglers, this is a broad X4-S range rather than a single-purpose rod, covering close work, standard carp fishing and more powerful casting choices.
