Questions ?

Hi All! I have some questions and would like to hear some feed back! Now that gasoline has hit at or above the $4.00 mark (and most likley to go higher) how does that effect your engaging in going to fishing spots in the state -> and also operating (those of you that have them) boats? Will your fishing outings be curtailed by the higher gas prices? Will you be fishing closer to home? Towing a boat consumes more fuel -> how will that affect your fishing outings? Since boats use more fuel than trucks or autos to overcome water drag -> How will you be operating your boat to maximize fuel usage? SeaDog1

Well I don't have a boat, but do have a kayak. Even so it is still going to limit how far I go. I may be even more selective about when going farther that I really make sure as best I can that conditons are good and warrant a longer trip. One thing I was throwing around when talking to wife... I have never caught a pike or walleye. I was hoping if someone on here was going for pike, and needed a partner and a way to split gas, I would have offered to go, especially if it is someone who can put me on some pike. Other than that, I am pretty sure I won't be making too many long trips. I will going to NH in May, to visit my uncle and the two of us are going for smallmoth on Winnepausaukee (sp?). I just saw the gas prices close to me went up over the weekend, to $4.13 a gallon. Yikes!
