Now that fish was not even 4 ounces and I am sure that was not the cause. Somehow the blank was compromised. This was the first trip out with this rod and I feel it was that way when I got it. Those of us who buy these rods know that can happen so no need for me to cry over spilt milk. I will try to get a replacement top and see how it goes. I had caught about 30 fish before this happened. It was a great rod for crappie and bluegill. The sensitivity was off the charts. This is life.

some of the blanks are so paper thin these days that a micro scratch and JUST the right bend and KABOOM !
lost a few over the last few years of the super sensitive light weight variety over about nothing ...
my condolences ,,,,
