when you stop buying all the latest and greatest?
This year I really stopped buying into everything, all the new plugs, the high priced gadgets, clothing lines, magazines, etc.
It seems I read everything 10x, the gadgets I dont need, the plugs are redundant, the clothes over-priced.
I search out gear from other sporting sectors, buy used stuff cheap, use more time tested techniques.

Am I jaded, smarter or just poor?

Anyone else find themselves focusing their fishing stratgey and gear to a more core oriented view?
