I taped it mainly because of splinters. My boat is real light so I used the gorilla tape to fasten that bungee quick connect for convenience but originally just tied off to it. Yes it does bend. But a bend is part of the deal it keeps from pulling out. Check out the stick it website you will see that when tied off they bend, when stuck through a mount or transom handles they stay straight for the most part. For heavier boats I would suggest the 3/4"X10' rods
SYG, if your local Grainger don't stock it just have them will call it and it won't cost ya shipping, otherwise the shipping is almost as much as the rod.
