ah ya the sonik u cant go wrong.they have some great ranges and new to offer.even u can look them online here.i think fishingmegastore.co.uk deal with them.personally i think ur mad goin for a 16ft.its too long for wat u need it for.if i was u id buy a nice 13ft rod or theres ones now that come in 13ft 6".that loads for wat u need it 4

the first sonic rods where like sweeping brushes :lol: but i am told they have got better,you should take a look at the ian golds rods and have a look in the second hand thread before you make up your mind,once you buy one your kinda stuck with it

As Rodger said take a look in the for sale section, friend got an Ian Golds rod recently, he was using a Sonic up to that but i believe the sonic has been relegated, Ian Golds rod superb 14ft 2 section rod perfect for beach casting

Be skeptical about what you read, Brian - very very few reviews are impartial, and just about everything in the magazines is pure PR.

ive got the 14ft version its a beautiful rod it shows the smallest bites but it doesnt shake in the wind i fish with people that have ziplexs and they were saying its a really nice rod and they couldnt stop picking it up and looking at it and telling the lads to come over and look at the rod i couldnt stop laughing!!!

but anyway its a really nice rod and i'd buy it but first ask if you can try it out fishing with a person you now that has the rod or a tackle dealer that you know i'd only buy a rod that i like the feel of.

hope this helps :D :D
