Sonik rods

They've never appealed to me. Buy British not some cheap Chinese stuff with a dodgy warranty where it costs you if it breaks. I also cosmetically think they look cheap. Eeven the zx ones

Just to balance the argument, i snapped my century sport back in the day.

Can't say I'd have 1 but my mate got 1, a sks black to test to breaking point and it's still going strong after a winter of abuse.

two questions please.

does a person buy a rod on account it looks nice.

and why can a rod snap after say a few months use or two yrs use just out of the blue.

Loads of reasons why rods snap including bad casting technique so.I wouldn't Bragg about it marra

It wasn't bad casting technique because i wast casting when it snapped on me.

Not for me like , prob ok for the job but after a good hammering a recon they go soft quick , am no tackle tart that buys every zippy or century rod going and polish them every day with very little use . A Believe buy once buy quality av had the same anyfish rod for 3 seasons now , hammered it in all conditions, got geordie to rebuild it after a dropped it and it's still as good as when a bought it , just bought the same rod again as a spare when my first one finally gives up on the hammering it gets . But still a long way off . Av got reels for different jobs but one rod that does it all and does it well from scratching to Heavy work .
