Rod was pretty much parallel to the water when it snapped. I was only using 25# flouro leader and the rod wasnt damaged so I'm not really sure why it broke. I grew up fly fishing on very light gear so I know how to play a fish pretty well on lighter gear than the size of the fish. Drag was set accordingly to my line weight also...
