Thread: Do you ever change out your fishing line?

I change mine out when it starts going bad and I have to pull some off until I find some good line on the reel. When I start having to do that, its time to change.CF

Yearly, at the minimum.

I change often but hardly ever do a complete change. I tie to good backing line.

I change out each time line gets a little low on spool which probably is twice a year and would be more but I use so many rods to do the same job,1/32 and another 1/16 another different shape or color or weedless

I generally change line every couple of weeks. Line twist, abrasion, environmental factors and a slew of other variables are hard on mono and floro. Now, I generally only change my braid once per year. I want as much in my favor as possible if/when I hook a good'un.

I change mono every 3 years, 2nd year, remove it from reel, put it back on, used line 1st, there's unused line on the inside of the spool.

I change line very often. on my crappie castin reels, bout every two wks. But like DonG, I have backin on most of the reel, only change out 75-80 yds. On my titelinin an flatlinin reels, once a yr. On my bass rods, before every tournament. Reels with braid, mostly trollin rigs, hardly ever get changed. the six I use with leadcore, when the line starts breakin easily(every 5 yrs) altho I'm changin over to the new braid leadcore from Sufix an that should last a lot longer, if its like my other braid. with over 80 rod an reels, it seems like every time I don't go fishin, I gotta change line on sumthin...

Very often I buy the bulk bass pro 4lb something like 11000 yards... I change probably every couple trips...
