Typically 4 to 5 years for me. Walmart Everstarts.

I have two of the same that are both more than 10 years old. Still work just fine on the old farm pond.

I can't remember exactly. It seems like I got 6-8yrs out of the Diehards. They weren't cheap batteries and I always get the most cranking amps. My boat has always been stored inside

What's with the sissy seafood tongs? You got some sort of thumb and forefinger disability?

Seriously, regarding the battery: One full discharge isn't the death of a battery. If your boat has a good digital charger, they'll come back up to charge. Carry a portable jumper box on the boat if it makes you nervous. If they're well into their lifespan, maybe you can justify replacing them now, but if they still take and hold a charge, keep using them.

Seriously you ever picked up a walleye by the mouth?
