It Ain’t Easy Being a Fisherman

Who knew recession would hit us fishermen so hard?

homeless fisherman It Aint Easy Being a Fisherman

This past summer gas prices were over $1.60 a litre here in Eastern Canada. Even though I drive a pretty economical car, those prices kept me fishing close to home. I’m sure many boat owners fished less then usual this year due to the gas prices as well. Now gas prices are under $0.70 a litre, and I should be happy about that I guess, but I’m really just annoyed! Am I the only one that fished less as a result of the high gas prices?

Yeah, kinda ticks me off that it’s cheap now, instead of last summer, when I was dragging the boat around.

The Best Fishing Commercials Ever

You don't often see fishing commercials unless you are watching fishing and hunting shows on television. If you don't watch fishing on TV, then you have missed out on some really great commercials. I've taken to time to scan through Youtube to find my favorites for you to enjoy. You know these videos are going to be good, otherwise the title wouldn't contain the words best and ever.
