Wouldn't live anywhere else and I'm a 20 something trying to figure out how I'm going to be able to buy a house. I'll stay here even if it means living in apartments or condos for the rest of my life.

Maybe if you sell all your fishing equipment ... plugs and what not, you probably could afford a waterfront home ... would that work for you?

I've lived in Florida twice - Miami for five years/Palm Beach for two - fishing the keys and everglades was awesome ... and the fishing during the summer time was even better than any other time of the year, as you could find bonefish, permit, tarpon, snook, redfish in the flats and backcountry ... good dolphin fishing in the summer time along with a variety of other species ... you get used to the heat ... the turn from mid fall into early winter was always a little tough, but you could also adjust your fishing ... but still missed the striper ...

But you have the same or similar problems down there -- prices are high in the greater Miami area, maybe not as high as up here, but still high ... electricity is high as you need it to run air conditioning during the heat of the summer ...still lots of wackos and losers ... but would I live there again ... probably, although the hurricanes really suck, I lived on Key Biscayne and had to evacuate every time a hurricane came through ... and it screwed up the fishing ...

... hate the cold, but love the summers and fall up here ... will stay in New England as it is beautiful and every where is crowded ... we will have more than 300 million people living in this country ... too many, ... if you look at the benefits of the New England region ... it actually is a great place to be ...
