    Default Why is fishing/boating so expensive?


    Ever since I bought my boat I have been eating Ramon Noodles only, I can't afford to eat anything else.

    Sounds like you bought too much boat.I have friend with a new Ranger that can't get to the water for having to cover a massive boat payment.If you think fishing is expensive get yourself an 8 second drag car...

    My first boat was free, had plenty of leaks, was a whole lot of ugly and the Ward trolling motor sounded like a tractor. It was a start.
    I think the mistake a lot of us make is thinking the state-appointed shrink is our friend.

    I can relate to Slabmaster. I love fishing with my 18' 150, and it does get a little pricy, especially
    when you live 30 miles from the lake. I also have a 6 second drag car (57 Chev) which is also an
    expensive habit. Haven't taken up drinking or golf. Can't afford them all.
