Used rod combos in last 12 months would be around 60-80. Add in ice fishing, specialty rods for specific use/place, and generic rods I have for others to use and I'm about 125-130. Sounds extreme, but looking at my background its not that many. I guided/outfitted for over 30 years both open water and icefishing, fished pro for years, and run a great lakes rig. I have equipment in few different states so I seldom travel with anything. that is a lot , but understandable , how often do you change line on those? what line / lines? flyrods only when line gets rough and loose it’s smooth surface Panfish rods - mono - 1-6# couple times a year based on use. YoZuri Panfish braid - suffix 832 reverse ends every couple years All other braid rods - YoZuri BLUE braid - every two to 4 years I reverse ends based on wear FYI I standardized all my reels with braids. Exact 100 yrds of braid and then whatever cheap crap for backing. That way once a reel is set, I never change backing and when I replace the braid, it’s 100yrds each time. Any leaders to braid is YoZuri floro- change as needed Med sized mono 8 to 14# is all YoZuri and change about 3 yrs Lake MI rigs - mono 25 PLine change every other year. Leadcore, copper, braids only as needed Get cans of Blakemore Reel Magic and occasionally spray your line. Extends life The only thing worse than losing........Is QUITTING! Lifetime Member WTA
