I haven't had a bill break, but I have had one crack... It was on a Cotton Cordell, Wiggle 'O. It's the strangest thing, as I haven't hit anything, bill first... It hit tail first... It's not a 100% cracked, but it is definitely cracked in the middle somehow... lol Weirdest thing. Eh, you pay for what you get... Just hope that never happens to a lucky craft, or Jakall bait!
