I hate to hear that. What pound test line were you using? I would contact Chris at Finesse Fishing about a replacement top.

I wonder where I can buy a tip for this pole, or can I? A big catfish broke the tip section today, makes me sick.

Ouch, hope you can get it replaced. The ABU 6.10L spanked a big carp the other evening…..after I chased him down with the trolling motor.

Hope Chris can fix you up. That hurt. Do you think the true test of 2lb SOS did you in? I don’t know the rating of your rod.

I think it was my fault. I accidentally stepped on the very same area it broke last week while bank fishing on rip-rap. I was astounded that it didn't break at the time. It appeared to have held up and I landed a few fish on it since.
When the big catfish hit yesterday, I think it stressed the area I accidentally stepped on and it simply gave out. So no, I think the 2lb SOS line had nothing to do with the break.
Sad!
Dang that’s a tough break... hope you get back in business ASAP!
Sorry to hear about that, hopefully you can get a new top section soon.
Hope you can find another one, I hate the feeling in your gut when you break one.
Creativity is just intelligence fooling around
