Customer testing out the bend of his new Piratez Blood Sword Slower rod, usually this test is done to see where the bend of the rod is on a given blank to know where its strength is. It is also a test for the amount of dead load it can handle. Although this test is mostly done to somehow feel the strength of the rod, this test does not determine the rods actual capacity and capability during actual fishing.
