The new Ozark rods don't have the ceramic in the end eye, the Ozark rods have a stainless eye on the end.
I fish Grenada Lake, MS and use the light action Ozark 11' jigging rod. I've never broken an Ozark tip while fishing, even on these big crappie here at Grenada..(have also caught catfish in the 7-10 pound range, gar, drum, and buffalo)......I did however have a person step on one in my boat and broke the end off of the rod but I added a new eye on the end and still use that rod till this day.
James 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: (KJV)
