Wednesday Review... Sonik S3 & S4 Carp Rods

This entry was posted on 10th February, 2016

Introducing the S3 and S4 rod ranges, Sonik Sports has pulled out all the stops with some great incentives and real money-saving deals that could just tempt you to that set of new wands you have been waiting for.

New for 2016 and replacing the previous SK3XTR range, these are the ideal all round players rod, which excel fishing a wide range of waters at mid to long range.

Constructed on a brand-new, super-slim blank, these rods are not only great for casting but also capable of controlling and playing fish right under the rod tip. Light and well balanced in the hand, the multi-modulus carbon fibre blanks load easily and will cast surprising distances with relative ease. Fitted with double-legged SiC guides, minimal branding and finished in a matt black finish, these rods look the nuts.



The S3 is available in a range of lengths, starting from a compact and stealthy 9ft through to 10ft, 12ft and a 13ft model. The 9ft features a slim shrink handle while the other models are all available in both cork and slim shrink. The 12ft rods at 3lb test curve and over also feature 50mm butt things as standard. A 4.5lb spod and 3.5lb marker rod are also available.

New for 2016 and replacing the previous SK4XTR range, these are powerhouse, long range casting rods that will suit anglers who are fishing larger waters, where the need to punch a large PVA bag into the wind demands extra power in the butt section and a tip that will not fold under pressure.

The stiffer butt sections are extra reinforced with a 1K carbon weave that aids looks and performance, whilst the tip sections are still forgiving for playing fish under the rod tip at close range.

Fitted with super light Seaguide blackened rings, a custom DPS reel seat, with small red detailing these rods look the part and are in keeping with today’s minimal branding and underground aesthetics, which have become so popular.



Two lengths are available, 12ft and 13ft, from 3lb to 3.5lb test curve. Each model comes complete with 50mm butt rings, ‘Breakdown friendly’ ringing pattern and the option for either cork or slim shrink. The 13ft is only available in slim shrink and 3.5lb. As you would expect, there is also a complementary 5.5lb spot rod and 4.5lb marker float that finish this setup off beautifully.
