How often if at all do you change backing line?
I've got spools that have maybe 50 yards of backing line and 100 yards of the main line of my choice , but I'm updating by main lines to Preston Reflo power max - I've switched to the Reflo power for my hook lines, and whilst I'm stripping the reel of line I'm thinking that I'll probably get rid of the backing line, it's never seen day light but at over a year old it's time to change it.
Does anyone else change backing line each year or just leave it as mostly it will never be used?
