How much has today’s economy effected your fishing this year - davetclown - 11-07-2009 [font "Times New Roman"]Everywhere I went this year, I saw fewer anglers on the water.[/font] [font "Times New Roman"] [/font] [font "Times New Roman"]I am sure I don’t have to guess the reason, But for clerical sake I am putting this question to the test.[/font] [font "Times New Roman"] [/font] [font "Times New Roman"]You may feel free to reply if you have not gone for other reasons, or you want to jump in on the topic.[/font] [signature] Re: [davetclown] How much has today’s economy effected your fishing this year - aztoon23 - 11-08-2009 Since I was so poor to begin with I haven't noticed any difference[sly]. So in short I have been fishing more this year than any other, even bought some float tubes and taken the kids along. I just keep it simple and enjoy. of course I am lucky and live fairly close to Parker canyon lake.

The bass fishing has been pretty good. I plan on going to the Utah high lakes for a while this summer and the fuel prices hurt. 12mpg towing adds up. We will be dry camping to cut expenses. Hopefully close to the water so I dont have to drive to launch. I was looking at Montana and Idaho but we have to keep the distance down so we settled on Utah.
