if your drag is set correctly, letting the fish take line and reducing the stress on the rod, wouldnt it solve the issue? Its simply more pressure on the rod thats making it break, no? sure mono has more stretch reducing the stress on the rod compared to braid during the same drag setting. maybe just adjust for it....
fyi i snapped a st criox last summer on a jetty candy caning a 25#, lol
