I don’t know about fishing being more expensive 

I basically quit playing when my oldest son was born...bought an old ranger bass boat...and started fishing because I felt like golf was selfish and fishing was something we could do as a family.

big initial investment to buy a boat...but otherwise it’s only the price of gas for each trip

the price of equipment is basically the same...I’m not the type to buy the latest and greatest.  

golf membership is expensive and it isn’t something that has a residual value like a boat does...you can always recoup part of the money from fishing...with golf it’s gone.

Public land Hunting is an inexpensive hobby...the guns hold their value

 

 

 

Public course golf when you walk is under $20 for 18 holes.  I can't drive to the lake for that.

Not in the metro areas.  And certainly not at the lakes.  Resort golf is crazy expensive.

I’ll say this, the pandemic has reached into places I never thought were at risk. Like document shredding. I never had to worry before, but now I have to improvise. This burns hot enough to obscure our account numbers and also puts a nice char on a steak. Hope the St. Louis charcoal snobs approve!😄

I'm invariably finding that I need to go to the hardware store for a few things to get the jobs done, and I ain't willing to go to the hardware store.  You have to really think about just how important ANYTHING you seem to need is.

 

I gotta try that one with my wife! 😂

Heck I go to the hardware store when I need to, but I seldom go to the big ones, try to stay local and less busy, but I am so big on using what I have, sometimes I hear someone say "what did you use that, well dang it, that was what I had in the shop that's why, not worth a trip 5 miles each way to get a small part".  That and it's just fun sometimes to see what yu have to accomplish and then what yu have and Magyver your way through.

You’ll quickly get bored walking 18 at the muni...that’s like saying the cost of a dozen night crawlers is $2.99

@Coldwaterfisher Sorry for your sick in-laws. Please drop the politics. We all know that American Politics are a disgrace at the moment. I come here to think of other things.  We were supposed to be floating, killing turkeys, catching trout, and getting drunk today. Well I’m drinking bourbon at home, and a tree fell on my tandem canoe. BTW, you still owe me a bottle of scotch from the bet you made week before Trumps election. You said no way, I said cant see it not happening. I do not support him, but it’s been 3 yrs. Bring some Balvenie Double Wood next time we get together.

Looking for a tandem canoe BTW, 17’ Royalex Wenonah Spirit II preferable, but will consider others. Ins Co paid well for it.
