It’s unfortunate but the Ultimate tips rods suffer the same fate.
My mates expect to get breakages at least twice through the Winter months. Trouble is we want sensitivity & chucking power especially in Winter, throwing 30grms for 70 yards as well something will give.
Started to check twice now before chucking but will still get breaks….it’s an expensive problem, so your rate of breakage looks OK…… ask if you are using the correct rod for the job?
I use the Maver Reactolite which is a super tip rod, but also have the Preston, each have their own strengths but I make sure one has the heavier tip in if needed it for the longer chuck, it has reduced breakages.
