Rod breakage? I don't get it? How do you break a rod? I've had cheap rods, expensive rods(G Loomis to me is)and never broke one with a fish on??? I've stepped on them in the boat, shut the trk door on a few, fell when wading a river and broke them. Do people still used the drag on their reels? Or just try and horse the fish in and break the rod? I've seen people drag a Chum 20' up the bank with their cheap rod bent double and it didn't break. Please explain how you break a rod, I really would really like to know.
