[cool][#0000ff]Sounds like you are doing everything right for long term storage. The main thing is to get everything clean and dry to prevent mildew and degradation of the materials. Most elements of tubing gear is nonreactive nylon or other tough stuff, but it will still last longer and perform better over time with a little TLC.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I
ly admit that I am not nearly so fastidious. (No longer fast, but still hideous) I do store my gear during the colder months of winter, but my cleanup and storage are much simpler. During the warmer months, when I fish two or more times a week, my stuff is kept in a constant state of readiness, and it may not get a good washing for several trips.[/#0000ff]
