With Gas Prices quickly approaching $4 per gallon will you change your game?

like lewis black said i plan to use all the gas i can then they have to come up with an alternative fuel for us to use it is getting to be very sad soon we will be working to pay for gas to get back to work it makes me sick instead of the checks the gov sent out it should have been we will drop the gas tax but no the gov knew as soon as we get the check they will get it back anyways damn this stinks

i used to hate those signs that said... 200 or so miles to the next service area or whatever they say.. they make you panic stricken so i began carrying gas cans after that... saying for the peace of mind it was worth it...

Won't change fishing patterns. Just have to suck it up, hell, I drive one way to fish anywhere from 1 1/2 to 3 hours anyway, at that point does it really matter? My kids love bread sandwiches...

Buying a mountain bike, riding to work, and saving my gas for the weekends

The only effect it will have is extending my trips. What used to be a one day trip to the cape or RI will now be an overnighter. So its actually going to work out to more fishing. Im spending close to 150.00 a week in gas commuting to work and making a fishing trip. Less stops at cumby's and aunt carries, packing meals and bringing drinks. Economic stimulus check is going to a gas card, so much for the VS.

Take the car fishing instead of the truck and walk more. 30 mpg vs 18 mpg.

Cut out the eating out, buddy up like Bigfish says, and stop with all the weekly extras, scratch tickets and all that stuff. Walk into the store get your paper and coffee to go. Eat at home, make sandwiches to take fishing with you.

God Sandman, $4.20 a gallon. Maybe this will break by derby time. If it doesn't the same routine will occur on island. No extras, just the fishing mam, and nothing else.

I plan to take my wife's Toyota Camery instead of my Durrango. Less driving around to different. spots

I am becoming a much better fly fisherman on the local rivers.

[Slipknot]

I'll try harder to make each trip count.
Fish closer to home at the canal more this year.
I don't have the camper in Wellfleet anymore so I will be missing the beaches for sure. I'll still get out with my skiff this spring and summer too. I think the gas prices will affect my wife more than me.

[BMEUPSCOTTY]

I will be staying local. Not that theres anything wrong with that.

[HESH2]

piemma said it all,gave up smoking 30 years ago,now over $5 a pack,gave up my daily happy hours after work saved $$$$.still drink a little now and then though.alot of the guys and gals have long computes everyday including my kids,gas prices really take a big bite out of their paychecks,it sucks.

[american spirit]

i've been riding my bike 1/2 way to work and conserved on any unesecessary shopping. carpool fishing doesn't always work for me. especially during weekdays. basically try to cut back in other areas to allow for increased fishing.

I just Pumped all the gas out of my 44 ft boat so I could use it to run my Zodiac, Chain Saw, Weed wacker etc for the summer


So I guess thats a Big Change in Plans.


Cool little Movie. Ill be doing this later this week with my rubber raft
