how often do you clean your tackle

fishing tackle that is!! After fishing every a match every sunday i often put my gear in the garage & forget about it till the next saturday when i do prep for the next one, adding it all up my gear is worth about £800 & i treat it like this,i'd be gutted if it let me down during a session so have decided to change my ways & clean it earlier. Hence the question how often do you clean yours?????

Re: how often do you clean your tackle

i clean all my gear as soon as i get home ,wash the reels wipe the rods down ,make sure theres no little bits of worm or crab ect on the hooks,cos they do stink after a while,then put it all away in the spare bedroom/tackle shop ......

Yes

I do the same, wash it all down "polish" my rods and generally put it away neatly for the next time. Saves a lot of expense in seized reels and replacing rod rings. I always, always, turn my drag settings to the minimum on my Multipliers.

Re: how often do you clean your tackle

I'm always too tired after a session to clean it straight away, so put it away and TRY to clean it the next day
