Only thng to still buy regularly is terminal tackle and line and leader. I notice old-timers' tackle boxes are usually sparse with only a few lures proven over years. I have tons of stuff I never throw. Why is that?

Reminds me of the quote about fearing the man who owns only one rifle.....you can be damn sure he knows how to use it.
I buy a lot of things that look great in the stores, but after trying them with no luck or being disappointed in the action I tend to jump right back to my old reliable lures.
Which leads to me having tons of crap I'll never use.
