High end ($) ff goodies, do you treat with kid gloves?

I got the idea from another thread on the For Sale section. What difference do you take when handling your expensive gear over the ones you consider economical?

none.

none.
I fish the heck out of my Sage SLT. I bought it to fish with and that is what I do. Admittedly, I take it out of its case sometimes just to look at the beautiful thing.

None. I don't even break down the SLT anymore.

On the river - the same, basically as gardenfish put it. In transportation the SLT goes in the sock and case, the others usually go in just a sock. Unless I'm packing a full car like for camping-- in that case the fly rods all go in a case and spinning rods (if any) still just get tossed in the trunk.

I take care of everything as if it cost $$$.

My lower priced spinning and baitcasting tackle gets the same treatment as my high priced fly tackle.

Personally I think it's stupid to do otherwise.

I treat it all the same.

Best, Dave

some flyfishing stuff is economical? :shock:

Good One! JC :lol: Jax

I take good care of all my stuff. Every thing I have I have for a reason regardless of its cost.
