Check your tip top guide.If it has a ceramic ring inspect it very carefully.Take a length of braid and floss it around the top guide on the same angles causing the break.I had to replace one of mine this year also.Thought I had some bad PP so I put one reel on the sideline after rotating rods back to the one with the bad guide it broke off on another reel.Luckily it was while hanging the hook on the holder after a short run and gun mission.I looked closely at the tip and found a tiny chip .Rain some braid over it and it was like razor.I've been replacing at least one tip a year.I need to take better care of my rods.
