Just me .

Agreed they don't last that long. Cheap metal they use. I pay $2.99 for a sabiki set-up but get two from each package. I cut the sabiki in half. With 6 hooks, it's messy. I've been tangled too much with 2-3 or 4 fish on one set-up.

A 3 hook sabiki set-up catches the same fish (only 1-2 at one time), I minimize the tangles, I don't need a special rod to carry around AND I save a little $.

my 2 cents.
