How long do these last? Are they intended for weekly use? Are they convinient to fish from?

I've used mine on a weekly basis and I've had it for two years now. Don't know if it's all that convenient for fishing. There is no place to anchor a pole and if you have two people on it, there is not a lot of room for tackle boxes or bait.

Had mine for 3 years, seems to be able to take a beating. Use about 10 times per year. Kayak is heavy to lift onto car top rack, about 70 pounds. Scupper cart helps with moving kayak around. I built mine out of PVC pipe and spare wheels. Check different types of scupper carts on the Internet. Cart fits into the scupper holes in the kayak. Kayak is very stable and may be a good platform for fishing.

I use them in an inline chlorinator about 6 pieces at a time. They usually last about a week when I am running the filtration for 8 hours a day. If you are using these in a float for a smaller pool I think they would last longer, maybe up to 2 weeks.

Can be used for small salt water species. Make sure you clean reel after each use. I used them for years flounder fishing in New England.

Mine have lasted up to six months, that is, they are still catching moths up to six months. Of course whenever full, it's a good idea to replace it regardless of how old.

No I have not left them in the water that long. They still look new as of yet, we use them daily. I think its a great deal. We bought some wood spoons from a local store and they were just junk, these however are very thick and sturdy. I don't think I could break them by trying to. They hold up very well. Hope this helps...

They are fine for light saltwater fishing and will hold up to the saltwater (IF) you clean them off when you are done. Saltwater will cause corrosion on just about any metal. It is wise to clean even the finest of saltwater gear.

I bought these for use in south Fla salt water. They're stainless with plastic grips. They seem rust-free, but it's only been a few months. Rinse with fresh water if you can to prevent surface pitting. Line cutting is no problem. They might be a little short for removing swallowed hooks on larger fish. Tip of pliers is notched for split ring manipulation, but teeth further along will grab hooks. Nice lanyard. Good luck. Hope this post is not too late.

Depends on the number of fish, I have eight large goldfish and after one week there was plenty left in the hoppers, I'm planning a three week vacation soon and am planning use it again then. Mind you because it's an outside pond the fish can manage if it does run out but I'm pretty confident it won't.

I have been using them for fishing. I have found that long as I follow the instruction and twist the the end 6 or more time after inflating and the clamp in the clip while twisted they last forever. I have come back a week later and the balloons are still inflated with air only?

Hold long they last really depends on your usage of them as this varies from person to person. We will be offering replacement heads for sale next month.

They last quite awhile actually. I change mine out weekly, even though I never see more than minor wear on them.

I am still using it and I use them about once a week. If you wash them properly and sanitize every now and then they should last a while.

same overall water parameters are needed very easy to take care of overall. just make sure you have no large fish in the tank with them otherwise they make a great snack

No, it needs to be cleaaned weekly or biweekly depending on use and ammount of fish

I use them when I deer hunt and they usually last 2-3 days of continued use.

It depends on how much you are feeling your fish. I only feed my tank a pinch of food twice a day. At that rate I think my food will last for three months.

Haven't used it but a couple of times so far.I used it fishing at night and it worked great for the 30 mins that I needed it for.
