In theory I wash them everytime..
In practice, not even close...
This time of year when I'm fishing a bit more sporadically (2-3 times x week) I wash them more often..
In the fall (5xish times x week) I rarely have the time/energy to bother... also I fish alot on my rubber hippers and slicker pants (bought the pants 2 years ago at Job lot for 10clams... not a problem yet and I use them alot and almost never ever washem...)
I am careful about rinsing reels... keep a galon of tap water in the back, and pour it on my reel(s) at the end of the night, and then leave em in the bumper rack for the ride home to dry em off...
