How much do you spend?

Featured Replies

Well I spent 110 on a revo s and all star select rod, but for lures I only really buy soft plastics and the occasional topwater, jig or frog. I just spent 40 on about 50ish trick sticks, 10 duper flukes, 25 baby bush bugs from ***. Great deal for all of that. Just the other day I got a spro frog, and immediately lost it on a log I was raging, so I bought another so I spent 20 on one spro basically : ( 

I also lost a scumfrog bigfoot and a popper but I can get those back I just haven't waded in yet

I just spent $80 this week on frogs, jigs, line. Prior to this week maybe $50 since April.

Add $19 to this just bought a scale today.

Asking a fisherman how much he spends on tackle, rods and reels is like asking a woman how much she weighs or how old she is. You just DON"T ask those sort of things.

I'm stealing that quote.... ;D

There used to be a time when I calculated how much I spent, nowdays I don 't care, I may go weeks without purchasing anything and then all hell breaks loose.

between lures , soft plastics , swimbaits , line , and terminal tackle , i probably spend about $500.00 a year . if i am purchasing reels or having rods made , double that (or more)   ;D

I get to BPS about once a month and it's usually a $30 to $40 trip. I'll go once or twice a year and get my big stock up (usually after winter) who knows how much those trips cost (anywhere from $200-$300).

That's just BPS, I order some things online about every 2 weeks (usually small purchases though). Not counting in shipping, probably another $10 to $20. Also, my wife knows not to take me to Wal Mart because I will ALWAYS buy at least 1 fishing item while there...

Rough total estimate = $600 a year

I fish every day 12 months of the year and I do not buy all that much. I do not lose too many freshwater water lures and bags of flukes and hooks are fairly cheap. Saltwater is another story, always losing something but I manly use spoons, jigs and soft baits which are reasonably priced.

Really? FREAK...... ;D

WOW!!  I didn't realize how much I spend until you made me add it up... >;).  I spent $560 in January at BPS, $390 in May @ TW, and probably another $400 @ my local tackle shop.  Thats not counting my 20' Nitro w/200hp Mariner I bought last month for $5,000 and the repairs to it.  $250 for a new water pump and gear lube...$260 to rewire the computer chip and oil sensor!! 

So all in all...IM BROKE!!!

P.S.: I still want an HDS-5 Nautics...80 Minn Kota TM...4 new tires for my trailer...a hot foot...a spinning rod and reel...the list NEVER ENDS
