Product Information
The Sonik KRAFT Carp Rod is a distance-focused carp rod range for anglers who want a powerful casting blank with a relatively modern specification. It sits in Sonik's carp rod line-up as a performance-minded option without moving into custom-rod territory.
Sonik describes the blank as high modulus low-resin carbon with a matt armoured-carbon helix construction. The range also uses the brand's BulletPoint tip construction, which is designed around fast tip recovery and casting accuracy.
Model coverage includes 10ft, 12ft and 13ft carp rods, with separate spod and marker versions also listed. The 10ft models use a 40mm guide pattern, while the longer models use a 50mm pattern. The specification includes super-light M-Series DL black guides, an anti-frap ceramic tip ring and a CNC-1K carbon DPS-18 reel seat. A slim Japanese shrink wrap butt grip with hand-hold flare gives a secure casting grip during repeated casting work on larger venues.
This is a sensible choice for anglers looking at distance-capable Sonik rods with a crisp blank specification and plenty of model choice for modern UK carp fishing. Anglers should choose carefully between the shorter carp models, the 12ft and 13ft casting rods, and the dedicated spod and marker versions before buying.
