I think 90% of rod tips are broken far away from the ocean...

Ouch...that sucks...at least it was broken close enough to the tip where it can still be usable as a rod in the future....could have snapped it in the middle.

Ouch!
Ouch! Thanks for the tip (no pun intended  ); I bring a second rod when I make it BI.
Were you able to salvage the rod? |

Glad it was just the tip, Tagga.
I went down like a sack of potatoes last night in a rogue wave, sacrificed rod and reel to King Neptune. 
Just need Clammer to round things out. |

Easy there killer - hope you get your rod back.
Actually, Clammer tends to drive over rods between the reel seat and the first collector guide so no - not the same. |
