First time snapping a rod. Brand new ultra light rod I got and caught a few trout with it so far.
The wind knots from the super thin line have been annoying so I changed to a slightly thicker line and went to fish in a stream and needed up snapping it after it gotten stuck in a tree.
All I did was getting stuck in branch either on the bank or under water haha. Love it still, but def testing my patience.
Any advice on fishing in this environment? Or just don’t bother? I love the adventure of it and discovering pools but yeah sometimes it’s frustrating when every cast it’s stuck then the rod is broken

Snag on a tree or a rock if using mono or copolymer. Grab the last eye of rod hold your line and turn your whole body against the snag it’ll pop your knot at the hook or swivel and you won’t break rods that way.
Go on and get a big fat burger buddy.
There’s no fish in them trees bud..
Don’t try fasting and fishing at the same time, you might come home with fish breath.
