ernie1982 Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 Hi guys, I am wanting to know if anyone can tell me how long you leave your pre tied rigs in your rig wallet for before remaking them? Reason being I am next going fishing early March and have to go have an operation on my arm next week and will be unable to tie them for just before I go. If i made them up this week, would they 'keep' fine for about 9/10 weeks made up until i go in march and still be up for the job and work as well? i.e sharpness, knot strength etc..shop bought pre tied are a big no no! I use a korda rigsafe box.. Ernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riggythecarpboy Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 I imagine they would be fine if they are just in your wallet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigfrenak Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 I don't think they have a lifespan as such. The only thing that limits their life is usage. If you are using them a lot then they can get damaged and hooks can become blunt - but if they are just sitting in your rig wallet then they should be fine for years.
