looks like its destroying your spectra....

that's bad, change your rod tip and get the boat solid tip without
the insert. rod tip always gets banged up the one with insert
tends to crack and fall apart hope this help.

Stop worrying about it and just get it fixed.

Easy to change it out. Agree, go with a boat tip as they are less fragile. But keep an eye on it as the spectra can wear a groove. Use the heat-melt adhesive so you can change it out when it does, otherwise you will need to keep clipping it.

went to the fishing shop and dropped off my Rod 6 dollars to repair the tip and 15 for my torium 20 maintance. and some new 65lbs spectra since my old one got beat up.
