The Real Cost of Losing Gear (and How to Spend Smarter)

We’ve all had that sinking feeling—another jig snapped off, another lure gone. But have you thought about how much you’re really spending?

The Hidden Costs

  • $15 jig lost? Do that 10 times = $150 gone.
  • Add leaders, hooks, and sinkers = $300+ per season.
  • Premium lures lost in snags = hundreds down the drain.

Smarter Spending Tips

  • Buy in bulk (hooks, leaders, jigs).
  • Use cheaper lures in snaggy spots.
  • Keep backups—don’t pay top dollar in bait shops last-minute.
