Following on various threads on rods for specific species and particular environments , I was left to ponder on how many members have had a rod break because of the pressure imposed, weight of fish or water conditions! I would have thought that sensible line diameters and hook length strengths( proportionate) would prevent a rod snapping or am I wrong?
Thankfully this hasn't happened to me and I cannot say I ever felt it would! Am I wrong in referring to a float rod specifically rather than to rods generally? Why would a comparable feeder rod( not a poker) be any different!
I have never quite understood why float rods never have a tc ascribed to them! Power or specimen seem to be the test! Odd!
