If you stopped buying tackle today…

How long could you fish without completely changing tactics?

 

What would run out first? Lures? Terminal tackle? Line?

 

Given that many of us (including me) are susceptible to the fishing industry’s marketing efforts, I’m curious how long your collections would last.

 

I think I could fish two years, then I would run out of terminal tackle first. Baits would probably last another two years after that. Line would last a decade or more.

 

For those of us who have more than we need, can anyone recommend charities of organizations that specialize in fishing gear? I occasionally donate some of my shopping surplus to a local tackle drive for kids. I’d love to know if there are larger organizations like this to support.

I just got home from buying "essentials" lol.....I couldn't go more than a few trips or just wait for a seasonal/bait type change.   


I'd run out of line and soft plastics first.  

 

ETA:  I fish around lots of Spotted Bass, you'll burn through a bag of plastics in 10 mins if you're not careful.

Ha! Didn't mean to duplicate a thread. Oops.

It’s a forum, happens all the time, I just happened to remember it.
