How did that happen??


No Clue. I've only used the rod a very few times, I bought it for nymphing
and I don't nymph g The rod has been in a nice hard rod/reel case so I
doubt it was damaged "in transit." When I was stringing it today I noticed
a guide because it looked out of alignment with the rest of the guides. It
was cracked right at the wrap. When I tried to move it the 1/8 inch to
confirm it was actually broken and try to realign it to get through the day,
the other end snapped at the wrap ... cheap metal

P.S. It casts well enough for nymphing without the guide ....
