Some use UL in the ocean. As to snapping the rod.....maybe. I have been in a situation when fishing a JDM rod and hooked a big striper....as the fish was pulling off line at a rate I knew I had no chance I would just point the rod at the position the line was headed, and keeping the rod straight, grab the spool and the line would snap. But I would rather not be in that situation. I fished salt water for 21 years straight but that has been almost 20 years since I did it and have been out of the loop on salt water. I do know a couple of guys in the Trout Magnet Users Group who when they go to Florida they use the UL for flounder.
