This is not meant to be a "what is the best brand" type of discussion. Just more of an odd question. I fish in an area with lots of sharks at times, heavy structure at times and tons of toothy critters most of the time.
I often tell my charter customers about their lures, "don't throw it in if you really want to see it again!"
They smirk and over the jig or popper goes. Lots of times the first few jigs on a spot never make it to the bottom. Barracuda, king macks and wahoo will cut a few off every time. By the end of a trip they are looking for the cheapest stuff in their bag. Often I will lose every lure that I have on every rod, maybe 2 times over. Actually, I remember 1 day that a group of 4 of us lost over 50 jigs.
Poppers and stickbaits too. Big amberjack taking you into structure and getting your tuna taxed are the biggest culprits. Of course if you are lucky you can find the lures that float after getting cut off. I think my buddy Scott got to re-tie a yellow G-Cup 5 times in one session in Kirinda. The Spanish wouldn't leave it alone.
I honestly don't expect to get my lure back nearly every time I toss it over. The odds increase in my favor when I move to "live bottom" areas except this time of year when the king macks are thick. They eat everything.
So the question is- How long do you expect a lure to last you? How many lures do you go through in a session?
Being from the US I have only taken 2 GT trips, fishing a total of 12 days. I lost 1 sinking stickbait to the reef while untying a wind knot and got reefed 1 time when I dropped to PE4 just to test Murphy's Law during a tough bite in Sri Lanka. So in 12 days of GT fishing I lost 2 lures, 1 to a fish.
