Snyder Glas Fishing Rods and Blanks
There are plenty of ways to break a fishing rod, especially
a very light stick or one made from graphite or boron. However,
very few of these catastrophes have anything to do with hooking
and landing fish. Rods rarely break under the 'normal' strain of
fishing and most failures can be traced directly to a mistake on
the part of the operator.
Check the following list for the best ways to break a rod:-
1. Step on it.
2.Slam a car door on it.
3. Break snagged line through the rod.
4. Fall over with, or onto, your rod.
5. Hit a branch or rock while casting
6. Leave the tip protruding beyond a boat's gunwhale.
7. Stick it in an overhead fan.
8. Trust it to an airline, bus company or carrier without a protective
tube.
9. Pick it up by the tip.
10. Lend it to a mate
