my son does alot of shark/ray fishing. He has wore a grove in a couple of cheap rod tips using braided. What tip should I use help delay this from happening again. I already advised him I`d use heavy mono but youngsters are set in their way. Thanks in advance. Re: tip question

Just replace it with a alconite tip top it will be fine for years to come Re: tip question

I agree with Chuck. They are tough. Re: tip question

Alconites are an excellent choice. If he is fishing in the surf for the brutes, I have gone on a couple of my rods to the tiops with the inserts of titanium or zirconium just for that extra measure of toughness. American Tackle makes them, and they are quite reasonably priced. Re: tip question
