redcrbbr,
I've had Sweetwater's rod in hand and had one breakoff when setting the hook and 1 breakoff right after hookup when the fish pulled drag. We looked over the entire reel and nothing appears loose or bent. All of the guides were checked as well.

Yeah, JohnnyD is right. Maybe he can describe my problem more clearly to MikeP, since JD has used the set-up a few times.
