I am one of those that will fly out of the boat if I miss and I have broken one of these rods. I set the hook hard especially bass fishing. I broke this rod fishing a spro frog over some matted grass. Bass blew up and sucked the frog into the slop and I hammered the hook. The rod didn't like the additional weight and broke in half 3/4 of the way up the blank. For 50 bucks I think they are a good deal as long as your local academy will honor the warranty.
