i know what you are saying,and i love my 796
but if you are fishing 13 and a half metres to an island with snags to your left and right you need some control over the fish to keep them away from the snags.
i was using a red hydro when i broke the number4 and did nothing diffrent to what i would do with my old preston pole and that has never broke on me.
i did start on a black hydro but was losing to many floats and had no control over what the fish wanted to do or where it wanted to go so i swapped to a red.
may be we just expect to much from these pole?
