Thread: Live Bait Cost Effectiveness

Well, we buy a 6000 dollar boat, put a 1000 dollar trolling motor on it, outifit it with 2000 worth of electronics and then worry about spending 10 dollars for bait? I just look at cost of bait as part of the hobby. I spend 30 dollars on gas for the trip up and back, 10 bucks for snacks, 2 dollars for sun screen and loose a handfull of jigs most days. If I wanted to save money, Id go back to work! I worked hard so I could retire and spend time fishing.

This.

The most expensive part of most of my fishing trips is the beer I drink or the gas to get there.
