Birders. They quietly tell their inner circle where the birds are, get pissed off if some googan with cheap equipment gets too close to the "target", and spend a lot of money on gear! At least that's been my experience with them on the Island! Not that I feel left out or anything.  |
 Beer is the reason we get up each afternoon.

Lots of OCD people and people with substance abuse issues and people who are prone to depression. But that can be said about society in general also.

I don't know, Joe - you may be right -
I know when I've got a little extra folding money squirreled away the first thing I want to do is belly up to the counter for a rip-roaring tackle bender -
'Hey, just give me one more plug and I'll leave, I promise...gimme a dozen eels for the road too..."...
If you think I'm kidding, ya gotta see Uncle Crafty's Tackle Shack...  |
"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

I have some serious tackle junkies that are customers - I never ask why somebody wants something, but I wonder it.
