Ya tried that argument with the wife.
Than she started quoting price of license, equipment, time off work, and lately price of gas.
Them fillets are starting to look dirt cheap at the store
$10 a lb if you head to most smoke shops on the Indian reservation near Deseronto if one wants to go that route.

Yup…almost $12 a fillet….I showed this to my son last night and he says “get the boat ready !” Lol….
Ain't that the truth. I trolled for 4hrs this morning with 1walleye to show for it. I'm scared to calculate that price per poundQuote:

yes Sharon - especially fishing - I really love to go fishing - there is something about being out in the water - with so much space to use - they say that somewhere in the Bible it saids that God does not deduct time from your life - time spent fishing - maybe that's why I'm so old -
Yes Sharon, some things we just can't put a price on. I'm not a fishing fanatic, but I'd happily pay $500 to head out for a week of camping, fishing and sitting by a fire, as my wife and I do several times a year. Memories to live on! But not so much going to the market to buy fish?Quote:

Just a personal choice I guess I'm not starving or eating most of the fish I catch but when I do keep them for a meal it's always worth it.

Hey Joe, I disagree. Between having a truck and a boat, cottage or cabin rental or just a 4 hour round trip for a day, plus I don't keep much fish because I'd rather spend more time on the water or wind down when getting back home instead of cleaning fish guts, I figure whatever I keep costs about $6000 per fish!Quote:
