I am doing a good job keeping my expenses down compared to a guide. That is a perk right?

Yeah that's not good Clint. I feel like I'm due for something. I had a VRO pump fixed a year ago and haven't put another dollar in that boat since.
Tackle is another story, but that boat has been good to my dad and good to me.

Fishing is more addicting than drugs and sadly its probably cheaper to be addicted to drugs!

My lower unit seized up on Squaw today. $2600+ is the estimate. Hope the insurance covers it. do some shopping around if insurance doesnt cover. Found some complete units on ebay and other sites that offered rebuilt units with warranties for around half that. Good luck

Wait till you get into big swim bait fishing, 400 Reel, 550 Rod, 45 line, 150.00+ Lure and you'll need a minimum of 3 each of the above.
D I'll have you know I've not spent more than $375 for a sb rod nor $225 for a sb reel. Now the baits on the other hand...

I have not been fishing in a couple of months and the medical release date is quickly approaching. I need to get of the tackle web sites and ebay....So many things I could buy that I really "NEED"...
Just a few more weeks to resist buying. Heck I have too many unopened new things I have not used yet.. My deep cranking reel/new lures have not touched the water yet do I really need a few more cranks and a better rod?
