Snapped rods and good times

So Mike and I went to Steelhead falls and kitted up,trooped out to rip some lips,as you can well imagine the boys,keen as mustard to slay it but did that happen,hell no,I scored the first hook up on a small 10" redband trout but to no avail the lil bugger got off,So we decided to move lower on the deschutes as the water was not producing many fish.Well we moved on and started off on our way,then ting ting ting ting Mikes rod flew out the window,lol it gets better,so we reverse and i hear a sound like a rod snapping so we stopped and checked it out and sure enough he had ran over his rod and snapped it in 3 places,but lucky for him i carry a spare rod and reel,Yes he was gutted but it didnt let him get phased and we moved on and he ended up landing an awesome 12" rainbow on my 4wt on the lower deschutes,which made his day and the bright side of the story is he gets to buy a new rod,Yay,we love new toys in this game so always carry a spare kit for those just in case scenario's,you just never know,have fun and as always tight lines.
