    I have had a life long addiction and most likely will die from it. I want to live though as long as I can hold a rod and reel! Something has got to kill ya!

    I thought this thread was about buying lures and tackle.

    Fishing is the gateway drug.

    Truth, but apparently high gas prices is the cure

    Hooked since 4. Now at 70, my wife helps push my habit. Even threw hints at me about buying my retirement boat.

    Definitely. Once you turn down the fishing road, there’s no turning back. Love everything about it.
