Last year I put cheap mono backing on all my reels, any reason to replace it?  I would think it could last a few seasons if not more.  

Thanks

Nope

Don't replace it, it is no telling how old my backing is.

Mine has been on for years.

Can't think of any reason to change it. Maybe if I'm respooling and want to add more backing than what I have on to save more main line, Ok.

 But change just for the sake of change? No

None.

I don't even replace my main line every season.

Replace the line you ACTUALLY USE as needed, but the backing is of no consequence.

 

It ain´t doing nuthin´ so why replace it ?

The only reason to change the mono backing would be to lighter weight braid backing.

Thanks everyone, seems I'll just keep it on.  Good point @WRB

Nope.  I have had mine on for years.
