Unless it's raining out....Never.

The VS 250 I am using now is over 3 years old, sent it back once the first year I got it and hasn't been back since. Never cleaned it other than dunking it to get the sand out. The backup 250 I have is still unfished.

The Saltiga I have still is smooth as the first day I fished it. The last fishing trip I had with it was on an island in early November last year. Hung it up and it sat all winter. Fished it the other day and you would never know it.

You get what you pay for.
