I've had some bad luck with graphite rods . I broke a tip off a fenwick world class fly rod cleaning the ice from it in the winter . Just should of be more careful . One other was a Fenwick Iron feather fly rod and it broke in the summer time . It broke right above the cork handle when I was setting the hook . This really surprised me but It must of a had a ding in it . Most others got hit with doors and I accidently drove over 3 rods one time and destroyed 2 reels in the same act . OUCH!! I still like graphite rods and will keep buying them . Love the feel of them and the sensitivity .
