How many times have you broken a rod while fishing?

[Amir]

Once. Nothing wild. I just let go while I had a bite.

Either by stepping on it, pulling back on a big fish/hang-up and snapping it, etc.

Lets here some wild stories!

I broke a rod trout fishing. I was carrying the down and broke it on a rock. But later I caught a nice golden trout on the same rod.
