Speaking of flurocarbon, how often does everyone change out their line?

i like to change mine pretty often. here is what i do on rods and reels that i use quite often. i will spool the line so it a little over half full on the reel spool that way i am forced to change quite often as it is way to easy to put it off and just hit the lake and say oh well the line will be ok. i have got to the lake too many times with my line getting worn and lost fish cause of it so i have learned my lesson.

If I am fishing a tournament, I'll respool the night before the first day. Then I'll use that line for the weekend and respool after the practice of the next tournament. If I am just out fun fishing I won't respool for a few trips.

You can extend the life of your line by using a line conditioner like kvd line and lure conditioner. It will help protect the line from sun damage and prevent a lot of the line memory. Just make sure to apply it to the line as you spool it. Spray it on a rag and run the line through it. After each day I also spray some on the reel.
