Pressure
Test
Back at our lab we put these rods
to fight against the “Linetestmeterinator” or line test meter. Have I
been watching too much Phineas
And Ferb? Anyway, this is to learn
how much pressure these rods can
handle or if they meet the manufacturer’s claims.

The light jigging managed to reach
almost 13lb (not told what the max
is) before we heard some crackling
sounds. The casting rod managed
to reach 16.5lb before we stopped
the pressure doing slightly more
than the specified 16lb.
