prunehands	Posted: 8/26/2013 5:14:45 PM Reply Had the same thing happen a few years back.I was beach fishing mid-island for coho.Stalked a school for hours before hooking up.Fish went nuts and although the fight was great, I was a bit bummed when I saw the big purple bars Too bad about the rod, even with the warranty; it's still a hassle
