Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Carp anglers who prep rigs at home. You can tie a batch of hooklinks, pin them in place and keep several approaches ready for the next session.
- Anglers who hate rummaging for tiny terminal bits. The separate lid compartments give hooks, beads, swivels and other components a proper home.
Maybe skip if
- Anglers wanting one box for all tackle. There’s no room here for bulky leads, PVA gear or larger accessories.
- Those carrying a huge selection of rig styles. Twenty-five rigs sounds generous, but a very varied armoury can soon fill the box.

Quick verdict
A tidy little rig station for the bank
The Sonik Lokbox Compact Rig Box is a properly useful bit of kit if you like arriving with a handful of rigs ready to go. It keeps up to 25 pre-tied rigs flat, gives you a 20 cm ruler for checking lengths, and has room for the small terminal bits that usually end up rattling around in a pouch.
It’s not a full tackle box and shouldn’t be treated like one. But for keeping your hooklinks, hooks, beads, swivels and rig components organised, it looks bob on. Compact, fairly robust and sensibly laid out — exactly the sort of box that can save a load of faff when the rods are off.

The robust construction, aluminium hook holder and secure hinge and tab design give it a reassuringly practical feel.
It should keep rigs flat and components separated, while the ruler and 180-degree opening make access easier.
It won’t change a rig’s mechanics, but quicker rig selection and consistent hooklink lengths can help you stay efficient.
The layout is straightforward, the box opens flat and the supplied pins mean there’s little setup faff.
For anglers who regularly prep rigs, combining 25 rig positions, 21 compartments and a ruler in one slim box is a strong package.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Sonik Lokbox Compact Rig Box
There’s nothing glamorous about a rig box, mate. It won’t make a screaming take sound any better and it certainly won’t put a lump on the mat by itself. But when you’re sat behind the rods and need the right hooklink quickly, a tidy little box can save a proper load of faff.
That’s where the Sonik Lokbox Compact Rig Box comes in. It’s built for anglers who like to tie a few rigs before heading out, rather than rummaging through loose hooklinks and tiny terminal bits when the bite-time arrives. The whole idea is simple: keep your rigs flat, your components separated and your box compact.
Inside, there’s space for up to 25 pre-tied rigs, held in place with the 25 rig board pins supplied. That’s enough room for a useful spread of options. You might have a few bottom-bait rigs, some wafters, a couple of stiff or hinged arrangements, then spare hooklinks ready for a quick change after a pickup or a snaggy retrieve.
The pins also help stop your rigs turning into a tangled mess. Anyone who has pulled a handful of hooklinks from a pouch and found them all cuddling each other knows how annoying that gets. Keeping them pinned and flat makes selection quicker, and it means you can see what you’ve actually got before committing to a spot.
The lid is where the small stuff lives. There are 21 slim storage compartments for hooks, swivels, beads and other rig components. That layout should suit the usual carp angler’s bits and bobs nicely. Keep your hook sizes in one area, boom swivels in another and those tiny beads that otherwise disappear into the bottom of your carryall somewhere sensible.
There’s also an internal 20 cm rig ruler. It’s a small feature, but a dead handy one. Consistent hooklink lengths matter, especially when you’ve found a presentation that’s behaving nicely. Having a ruler built into the box means you can check a rig or tie another to the same length without reaching for a separate measure.
The box uses a slim, robust construction and is reported as robust ABS plastic, with a grey finish. At roughly 24.5 x 13 x 4 cm, it should slide neatly into a carryall, rucksack or larger tackle case. It’s compact enough for short day sessions, stalking kit and those trips where every bit of spare space is already spoken for.
The closing system looks nicely thought through too. Two Click-Lok tabs hold the lid shut, while the Level-Lok hinges open and lock at 180 degrees. That flat-open setup is useful on the bank: you can lay the box down, see the rigs and compartments properly, then get on with tying or changing a presentation without the lid flopping about.
There are limits, naturally. This is a rig and small-component box, not a grand tackle warehouse. Bulky leads, PVA bags, larger feeders and other chunky kit belong elsewhere. If you keep your rig selection fairly focused, though, the Sonik Lokbox Compact Rig Box looks like a cracking way to stay organised, protect pre-tied rigs and spend less time hunting for a cheeky size 6 swivel when a bite could be on the cards.

Our take
Why this compact rig box makes sense
The big win here is organisation. Twenty-five rig board pins mean you can prep a proper spread of hooklinks before a session, rather than tying everything again beside the lake while the fish are on the munch.
The lid’s 21 slim compartments are handy for the little bits that vanish into the bottom of a tackle bag. Hooks, swivels, beads and other rig components can each have their own slot, while the internal 20 cm ruler helps keep hooklinks consistent and makes quick checks dead easy.
It’s a compact design at roughly 24.5 x 13 x 4 cm, so it won’t swallow loads of space. The trade-off is that it’s aimed at rigs and small terminal tackle, not leads, PVA bags or bulky accessories.
A proper tidy-up
What you’re buying
The Lokbox is a compact ABS-plastic rig box with two main jobs: hold up to 25 pre-tied rigs and organise the small terminal bits used to build them. The supplied rig board pins keep hooklinks laid out, while the 21 slim lid compartments give hooks, beads, swivels and similar components their own spaces.
The internal 20 cm ruler is useful for checking hooklink lengths, and the ridged aluminium hook holder bar gives the rig area a practical place to secure hooks. Open the Level-Lok hinges fully and the lid locks at 180 degrees, making the contents easier to see while you’re tying.
Worth knowing. At roughly 24.5 x 13 x 4 cm, this is deliberately slim. It’s brilliant for rigs and small bits, but don’t expect it to swallow leads, PVA gear or bulky accessories.
Built for organised anglers
Who should carry one
It’ll suit carp anglers who prepare rigs at home and want a clean choice of presentations on the bank. You can separate different hook sizes, hooklink materials or rig types, then grab the right one without emptying a pouch into the margins.
It also makes sense for anglers fishing short sessions, stalking or travelling light. The slim footprint keeps the rig kit contained, while the 180-degree opening gives you a handy little tying station when space on the bivvy table is tight.
Worth knowing. If your approach involves lots of specialist rigs and a massive selection of components, you may fill the box quickly. It’s best used as a focused rig box, not your entire terminal-tackle collection.
Quick answers
The bank-side stuff you’ll want to know
Can it store finished rigs? Yes. The box is designed for up to 25 pre-tied rigs, with 25 pins included. That makes it useful for preparing hooklinks before travelling to the lake and keeping them separated until needed.
What are the lid compartments for? They’re slim sections aimed at small rig components. Think hooks, swivels, beads and similar terminal tackle rather than large items. Keeping those bits divided should make tying and replacing rigs less of a rummage.
Is it suitable for coarse fishing too? It can be, particularly for anglers carrying pre-tied hooklengths and small components. Just bear in mind the layout is especially well suited to carp-style rig organisation, and the compartments won’t handle larger feeder or method accessories.
