Hi I bought a Sonik Vader 15ft 3 piece rod 3 weeks ago and after 3 trips the zirconium top ring and 3rd ring liners have popped out . I bought the rod from Fishing Republic online and am having problems sorting out a replacement as they insist I drive 30 miles to have the problem assessed even though I sent them pics etc. Sonik no help either even though they say they give 12 months warranty,
The rod eyes failed with a 5 oz lead on sand with a 4 lb bass on the line. Slashed my 40lb braid and lucky to get the fish ashore. Its a great blank let down with poor line guides in this instance.
So back to my old glass beachcasters.
Cheers
