The original idea for the HK series was to build a terrific 7' H offshore rod at a fair price. The original HK Spinning Rod accomplished that but several years later it was time to take things to another level. The second generation of the HK reinforces what Dark Matter is all about - Performance, Style and Value. The blank gets a major upgrade to F2000 carbon that is lighter in weight, feels better in your hand and delivers the action and performance we are looking for. Modeled after customized 70's muscle cars, we coated them in a gorgeous coat of black cherry pearl metallic paint that is unmistakenly Dark Matter. The grips have been upgraded to a higher grade EVA and have been reshaped for extra comfort. All models now have a Fuji DPSM Graphite Reel Seat with a locking ring to accommodate your favorite spinning reel. The Fuji Alconite K Guides with stainless steel frames are made for casting and jigging braided fishing lines and are corrosion resistant. The rear contoured EVA grip has a Fuji gimbal for those times when you hook into something big and you need a belt or so they won't spin in the rod holders.
The original Dark Matter HK Spinning Rods had just that one 7' H model. We've done a complete redesign and named it the Y. A lighter version called the W has been added to flesh out the series. The W is the perfect coastal rod for all things Florida and excels in the Northeast as well. The Y works great jigging or popping so it's a great option if you want to do both those things but aren't ready to commit to two different setups. HK stands for Hunter/Killer and you'll find out why when you take one on your next fishing trip!
Dark Matter HK Spinning Rods come with a 1-year limited warranty. They are 7' one-piece. If you're looking for a premium rod that delivers on performance, style and value, this is it. Buy a Dark Matter HK and go catch some fish!
