100% good review again guys, luving these high end gear. All thumbs up from me in SA
Got to admit, I would give ALL the Sonik range a look and I’m a Shimano user!! My wife has used the Vader X 6000 FS reels for the last 2 years on 10’ Vader X rods and they make an impressive package! She just loves them!
I quit Shimano a year ago, not satisfied with the overall durability. I would prefer Daiwa over Shimano every day especially with Spin-Fishing-Reels, for Carps i bought Strategy GTR-X and i'm really happy with those, seem to be indestructible.
I was a BIG Daiwa fan till I had a set of Regal Z baitrunners about 20 years ago that spent more time being fixed by Daiwa under warranty only to break again than in use. Fast forward to last year given a pair of emblem 19 scw 45’s as a gift, nice reels, but loaded with braid they cant cast as far as my Shimano XTC 14000 loaded with mono! I’ll stick to Shim & look at the Soniks till I’m convinced they’re suitable!
Looks almost same as Okuma Custom Black. I would not be surprised if this is coming from Okuma factory with Sonic logo :)
I like the "thing" underneath the spool.. I'm always getting line wrapped underneath.. but I'm a carp beginner. So probably just me. Great vid guys xx
I have 2 of the Frs version of these and found that the floating line protector didn’t work. I spent a fare amount of time having to remove the spool to untangle the line from the mech underneath. But despite that they are a great reel to use.
I have the Xtractor 2 Rod Kit, Bags and lots more I love Sonik great Products for a great Price next step 5 Season sleep system 😍thanks for your Videos 👍
Im thinking of buying the 2rod kit, is it worth its money?
@@oruam1599 Great Rods love them best part is the packing size Quality for a low price forgot Fox and Co. all my gear from A-Z is Sonik the Bagpack is so great😉
I’m also a shimano nut, I thought I’d never use anything else, but now budget is an issue, I’m taking a serious look at these, they are bloody huge tho 🙄
These look nice, most reels look similar but its how they perform and last that matters, looks are out of the window now days and cannot go by them alone at all. A lovely reel is the lynx mivardi big pit reel, they are extremely nice to use and past the test of time. 9.1 ball bearings, real quality reel.
I have the vaderx 6000 don't really fish big waters but a super reel and the line capacity is still great
Hi, I'm planning to buy the size 6000, can you cast with them over 100 yards?
Now I have okuma cb 60 with 12ft rods in 3.5 lb testcurve and i can cast up to 140 yards....
Yes easily mate I have them coupled with the 12ft 3lb vaderx rods
@@tommyrennie2070 thank you
Richard, my wife has the 6000fs on the 10’ vader X rod and I have just squeaked it over 100 yards BUT the rod doesn’t suit me as the butt is too short for me!
Hi Jo I’ve just bought sonic dominator 8000 and I’m chuffed to bits with him so if there was anything to go by they will be the dogs danglers
will these reel be able to cast long distances like 18 wraps+ for example
Hi reels look great. Im looking to get setup but theres soo many different rods and reels im looking for 12ft 3.25 tc rods and reels for casting upto 120 ish yards. What would be the best setup for about £150 for rod and reel??
Hi.
How strong is the drag/break?
I had a look at these and then I got offered a deal on a pair of sks 8000 surf which are just as good but I don't need massive bulk spools of mono to fill them
Sonik make outstanding value for money stuff
You should do a review of the rods from Ashima!
hey. I am a beginner. I have just bought a Sonik xtractor recon carb fishing 8ft. i just want to ask what type of reels do i need to buy with it? please can someone suggest to me. will Sonik
VADERX PRO FRS 10000 work ??? thankyou
Look nice reels .. nice price ..
Would you recommend the sonik Vader X Pro 1000 FRS Carp Reel or the Shimano Baitrunner DL Reel?
You should take a look at the Strategy GTR-X, i bought 2 of those, quick drag is sick.
Hey, do you think the Sonik VaderX Pro FRS 10000 Carp Reel would be too big for the vader x 10ft rod? cheers :D
I use them on the 9 ft extractor recons, they don’t look or feel to big for me.
Any advice for decent line for these reels biggest I would be able to catch is 30lb down where I fish
Sonic fishing tackle is brilliant for the price some people don't have loads of money to spend on higher end gear
Got A onder daiwa 5500 black widow, of i buy these Will iT be an upgrade ? I do like the looks alot
Go Shimano
I'm looking at getting three of these any suggestions on a decent rod to pair with em , about 2.5 TC ish. Also what line are people recommending at the minute as I just can't seem to find anything at a decent price that isn't shocking (about 15ib)
Any replies appreciated
Korum 2.25tc 10ft xtnd rods are good. They do 12ft aswell.
15lb GARDNER TACKLE GT-HD LOW STRETCH HIGH DEFINITION MONO. Great mono.
All I can say is its a good budget reel. Especially if your looking at getting a start off fishing set. But I personally will say save up and get yourself some proper reels. As the old saying goes.. buy cheap buy more than once.
Exactly this, my sonik reels only lasted for about 6 months before the anti reverse clip starting going and drag got sticky.
Yeah like everyone wants to save up for daiwa basia reels, just to do 3 rods is just under £1500
Don't get me wrong they are the best reels I have owned but for people starting out that's a whole set up
@@maverick1080 I did say that they are OK for starting off. And I know not everyone wants to fork out for Diawa, but it's something worth considering when taking up the sport. And the same rules apply for every sport there's just some things you shouldn't cut corners with because you'll pay for it in the long run.
@@chodders2329 I dont think you should discourage buying twice as with all sports its a learning curve and especially with fishing. Personally I wouldnt bother buying big pit reels unless you are fishing pits. They are horrible and hard work on small waters. Most of the time they just need a bit more tlc because they are cheep, I've got some shimanos st10000 from when I started out and they work a dream still
@@maverick1080 it wasn't so much a discouragement but more of a heads up. And yeah you are right it is a learning curve. And I've been there more than once lol 😆
Line lay for the 8000s out the box are horrendous how many washers to correct it?
What’s the heaviest braid it can hold
I have the sonik spod reel not the best for comfort but does the job
🔥
Shimano all the way . Just had some new today
These looks very similar to the Okuma CB reels that I own. Not everyone can afford 500 quid for three reels, these look OK for the price.
Got to be honest mate, if you look at ALL the reels they’re all starting to look very similar BUT I agree with you, as much as I have scrimped & saved for expensive reels, there is a niche for decent quality inexpensive reels! My wife for example wouldn’t & couldn’t justify a £150 plus reel never mind a pair!
So big tho! If it was an 8000 they would be smart!
Can I use them to catch barbel?
What Baitrunner would u go for Sonik 9 or 10ft rods ??
Daiwa Emblem BR 25A
What about the Shimano XT-B LC Baitrunner Medium ??
That's because sonik make good gear. I use 2 of their vader x rs 10ft cork handle rods matched with their vader x 6000 fs reels....and I love them, lovely rods and reels. Plus the prices are really good for what you get.
My wife has the same set up and she loves them, the rod butt is a bit short for me but I can still get a decent cast out when I tried it! The reels are tremendous quality for the price!
Hey, do you think the Sonik VaderX Pro FRS 10000 Carp Reel would be too big for the vader x 10ft rod? cheers :D
Bought two brand new ones off ebay, received today and only 1 arrived.
Anyway was not happy with the one reel it just seems cheap especially the plastic/graphite line protector thing under spool.
I pushed the bail arm over and wound the handle the bail didn't click over when spool was in certain position!
Also being used to small normal reels I wasn't happy/used to the spool when extended out you couldn't use the bail arm to cast as you had to wind down a few turns to lower the spool back before the bail arm could open! Not sure if this is normal for bigger reels - but not what I wanted!
Suffice to say immediately sent back for a full refund.
The bail arms are designed to not close from turning the handle. A lot of big pits are like that including my Penn Spinfisher.
Quelle est la puissance du frein ? Résiste t’il à une carpe de 20 kilos
Anyone used this model? Considering buying them so would like to hear any reviews about how good they are
I have the RS8000s and absolutely love them
Dont get them they are will not last, you can get a Shimano or Daiwa for around £80.
@@markmason13 what should i go for in your opinion
Darth Vader = Yes, Sonic the Hedgehog= Yes..........Sonic Vader = NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Well, don't want to hate, but mine got a really big problem for fishing reels.
Mine is rusted shut, really hard to turn.
Took it apart, rust allover inside, bearing gear spoolbrake, treading.
Thats poor for a fishing real thar got a little bit of rain on them.
Over priced paper weight save your cash and get Shimano or Daiwa.
I bought the 10000 frs and it is shocking. The tension and the freespool is rubbish. It keeps locking up a bit and I nearly lost my rod
Why don’t you do comparisons they will be much more helpful when you want to buy new reels
Well, i got the spot version of that, i wouldn´t buy these again.
they feel like cheap plastic toys. also the handle screw is a pain to tighten because of the big rotor and small head of the screw.
Save up for a Daiwa or a Shimano
I'll stick with my ultegras
i regred buying them, the quickdrag on the normal VaderX rs is far superior. The drag on these reels is not wat you aspect.
My Sonik extractor reels get constant line wrap despite re-spooling with a different line.. sensor and Gardner so changed them for my Shimano LC5500 XTB but they came with the rod and reel and net package, can’t fault the extractor rods or extractor net, but the reels feel cheap and perform badly avoid! Awful
Possible the worst big pitts on the market, great pitch but shame about the reels 🤯
I have the dominator x reels, they fell apart after 3 trips. Not worth buying sonik gear unless its not a main item👎
Yeah my buddy hates them...says they feel cheap and drag is all sketchy and not smooth.
Why make a reel with a line capacity of 490 meters that's 535 yards , what a waste of line .All the line beneath the first 150 yards just gets crushed and flattened under pressure and is no use to anyone .
300 yards is all I need so I use the spool reducers that come with my reels.
Maybe just use some backing?
Yep I always used to half fill with any old crap
@@markmason13 You got spool reducers with your Soniks ! I didn't get any with mine . So i backed the spools with nylon knitting wool wound on very tight , does the job brilliantly .
No baitrunner? Meh...
Hate wooden Handles so that’s me out
I’m not a fan of reels that don’t have a rear drag. Too much faffing
