Doesn't matter how much or how long you fish. You still forget stuff like that.

I have the older style power pole, rope sounds like a shot gun when your on plane and it catches a stump!

I'm only 33 so I've only taken off with poles down. And the kitty wiggles at about fifty instead of seventy with the poles down so I catch it pretty quick.
