No, you're just typical.

People who are five or more years into a sport only need so much. A big part of why fly fishing shops died off because once you have everything - you don't need to spend anything on per-trip basis. At least with traditonal fishing stuff gets stuck on rocks, bait goes bad. Even with surfcasting, most of the expenditure in fishing comes in the first five years - unless of course you migrate to boats.

Not everyone fishes a whole lifetime. Many people are somewhat serious for a while and then they may move away, get interested in something else, get a second wife who is younger, find other things that are more rewarding, etc. Others simply may not find sport fishing as engaging as you do.
