If you’re looking for the ultimate portable set-up, the 8ft rod’s tiny 30-inch packdown size (that’s just 76cm) is ideal.

You can opt for either 3lb, 3.25lb or 3.5lb, and each of them has a very tempting recommended retail price of Just like with other rods in the Xtractor range, there are three different test curves available for the 12-footer.

Rods with a small packdown size have become very popular, but sometimes you need the leverage of a 12ft rod to hit longer casts.

The 12-footers here packs down to just 50-inches thanks to a lower half with not one but two telescopic sections. It might initially sound a bit confusing, but Sonik realised that just because some anglers want a smaller package to carry around it doesn’t mean they actually want to fish with shorter rods. How can a range of short rods now feature a 12ft model? The new Xtractor Recons are very clever: a 12ft rod with a 50-inch packdown! The fixture and fittings are second-to-none Top-end guides - and all black of course! Along with the originals, there’s now 8 and 12ft models
