RE: How to Choose a Rod
I would also add that, for suckers, a #2 hook may be too large. I usually use a # 10. Also, is it your line breaking or your knot failing? I can't see a carp breaking 50lb braid unless it's really rubbing against something with a sharp edge. If you're tying the hook directly to the braid, I recommend a palomar knot which is very easy to tie. Other knots have a tendency to slip with braided line.
