I was fighting a nice bluegill on my new H & H 3 wt and the male section spintered. I mean, it was a nice bluegill but not in the rod-breaking class. I know you're supposed to do a reinforcement wrap on the female section. Are you supposed to do the same on the male section? I'm just devastated. I guess I'll give the new guy over there a call/e-mail to see where to go from here. JGW
