This right here. I’m pretty sure most of mine are at least ten years old. Faded and scared up but still catching fish great especially if I replace the hooks now and then.
I dont fish two days every weekend like years ago but still I am out there about one day a week from March thru June then sept thru Nov. I am primarily a plug fisherman if I am not flyfishing so my plugs get a lot of use. I lose a few to macks and sharks.


Life can be rough on us dreamers.
