I' ve never even though of my stuff getting messed up ' cause I left it in the trunk of my car. I guess I' ll have to clean it out. When it' s ten dollar zebco rigs you won' t exactly be hurtin, but no need to waste a rig that' s workin. The main reason I want to stay away from rubber is ' cause I had a pair a few years ago, used them twice, and hung them up in my gramp' s garage. I didn' t stuff ' em though and they dry rotted and cracked. But I don' t want to have to go pick them up at his garage every time I want to fish and figured the neoprene wouldn' t crack like rubber. But hey, two birds with one stone. Thanks.
