Here in the Northeast When I pack up my vehicle for my first trip to a river in April it stays there until I unpack everything usually sometime in November. I will add to it as the season lengthens or add another rod depending on the type of fishing I will be doing. The only exception is if we are going somewhere to pick up some large object that I can't get delivered. How about you?
