4 that I can remember. Two my fault, and 2 that were replaced at no charge because of defect.

3 - all my fault. One in a fan, one in a car door, and the other in my boat ice chest lid.

I'm going to quit reading your posts Mark. Like above I broke one today---my first. Overloaded the rod on a heavy crankbait trying to get extra distance and broke it in half. Bad thing is I went to get it replaced on the way home and it has been discontinued and the close out price was 39.95. I know I paid more but that was all the credit they would give me.

Mama is not going to be happy when she checks the bills.

I've broke several. 2 were hook sets, one of which was a stump. 1 trying to get way to much distance with an a-rig. All of the rest were rod locker lid shutting on them, or trying to get a snag loose. I quit doing that. An $8 crank bait is a lot cheaper than a $100 or more fishing rod.

Fishing welsh in the early 2000's and had a fish grab a senko and run in the grass. Set the hook and broke a 7' falcon original mh into 3 peices and broke the abu garcia 6400c in the front where you attach it to the rod. Sounded like a gun went off! I got it replace with a low rider so it was worth it, and still have the lowrider today! 20 lb pline was the culprit!

Only 3 - 2 in a car door and one in a tailgate. Not bad for 67 years of bass fishing.

And a 3rd last night, another 13 rod Envy 7'6" MH. That will be my last one, on the hookset, 2 pounder mad

They just seem to get brittle over time.

1 that was not my fault. It broke on a cast. It was a Loomis IMX783. Sent it in and cost me $20 for return shipping for a new one. Pretty good deal.
