I know what you mean, a few years ago I got really serious with my bass fishing and started fishing bass tournaments. I had about 20 rod and reel combo's made by various companys, all just mid-grade stuff.

Long story short, I had to sell all of them before up-grading to the good stuff. I would have liked to kept some of it for spares, but that's the way it goes I guess.

Now I have just about quit tournament fishing, but I still fish a lot and have really god stuff, go figure.
