Hmmm the skies the limit for this Dave and it all depends how much you want to hump around  :wink
From lines,reels,flies,rods and ginks etc its not long until you have half a tackle shop with you.
I just like to have a spare of everything as there is nothing worse than ruining a days fishing because you broke or forgot something and have to pack up early :z16

Always got at least one spare rod in the car. as for reels and lines I refuse to say as it looks like I,m suffering from OCD lol.  It gets worse when you start tying flies, for example how many of a pattern should you tie.?   If you tie a couple as sure as fate they are fish killers and you loose them , if you tie 6 they dont catch a thing and youve wasted time .  jim
