I have had a few accidents with rods that did not result in a break until late. The accident might cause a slight crack, that leads to a break later. I had this happen to my favourite Sage (Z-Axis). The warranty repair is now expensive, based on being an old rod. Luckily, based on my rod building experience, I fixed the issue myself and the rod is now solid.
Happens to the best of rods and best of fly fishers. No one is immune to accidents and potential rod issues.
