I saw this statement on a US Fishing Board.....anyone want to question, qualify, or comment on the statement.
"Think about it like this..With a carbon fiber,graphite or even fiberglass(less likely) as the tiny fibers that make up the material are stressed and fractured,the rod is going to lose ridgidity and therefore become "spongy" the cheaper the blank the faster this will happen. Also things like UV rays help to weaken the molecular structure"
They were talking about beach, or surf rods loosing their original strength after usage. :g: :g:
