Done that at least once, nice to see it swim away peacefully, might have been nice on the smoker too, Thanks for sharing.
A cheap rod... but a poor practice to pop a rod like that with the tension set too tight...
still fun though
First time it's ever happened to me. Wanted to throw it on the smoker but it's non retention there right now.Quote:

Maybe the drag was a little tight, but twitch jigs have thick hooks and you really have to burry that hook. Given the rod broke before the leader, I think that's what happened.Quote:
