Today in many places you can fish all year so doing a spring tune-up before you hit the water may not be necessary. However, if you have not picked up a fly rod since last fall a spring tune-up is in order before you take to the water for another season. In addition, a spring tune-up might be a good time to practice some of the casting skills that will really make a difference in your fly fishing experience
Clean all my lines and stuff in the fall. Now all the lines are off the reels in the spare bedroom to help remove the coils.
Very understanding wife.
