View Poll Results: With gas going up, are you re-thinking your fishing outings?

Yes, I admit that I'm starting to feel the pinch. I think I will cut back on my fishing.

To hell with gas prices. Fall is here, I'm forging full steam ahead and damn the wallet.

My wife leaves me
My wife finally got fed up with me not being around and now I can barely afford to take local trips due to prices.  |

cut back with the Sea Hunt unless I start fishing [[3] with gas money /
Now I,m gonna keep the CRV & look into getting a trailer hitch /with it I will then tow the tin boat .that uses like no gas ////
soooooooooooooooooooooo I,ll keep doing it
But between gas & the cost of eels //I,m getting closer to crossword puzzles as a [[thing]]  |
ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE !!!

From the boat: I think I'll be "drifting" eels more than trolling...and making shorter runs in the boat.
From the beach: I won't be running up and down the beach as much, and will keep the truck in just a few spots. |
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

Ive been so busy its only been 1-2 times a weekend and maybe 1 weeknight..
Working two jobs and going to class does that to you...
but.. since my second job I get to make my own hours and work as much or little as I want, Ill gladly work the extra hour or two to keep it up.

Let's see my fishing trips to salt are 450 miles @ 20 mpg = 22.5 gallons @ $3gal= 67.50 Yea, I guess it's gonna cut into my fishing.........I want an electric car. But just wait till that goes up.

I am definately using the 14' tin boat way more then the 20' glass boat. So glad I did not get rid of it when I got the new boat 3 years ago. Paul

I used to be able to fill my truck on $20 and drive for a week!
Now it's going to take $20 to fill the tank on my ride on tractor to cut my grass!!! 
As for my boat,
I may have to start acceping (or asking for ) gas money when I take friends out !!!
I have definately changed some of my ways by fishing inside Boston harbor instead making LONG runs just to go cod fishing for fun!!! |
