Broken rod

[StriperZ]

May your pole RIP!

I may be one of the few that broke a pole by fighting a fish. Here is the before and after Pic.


BEFORE


AFTER with 150 lb tuna still on.


We got the fish to about 15 feet from the boat hand lining and using the broken pole. Needless to say, we did not boat the fish.
