[Fin Reaper]

Because of the way things are (economy, Sandy, fishing regs) Captains and Fishermen are being forced to make decisions that they previously didn't have to make. I only have so much disposable income so raising the price means I fish less, BUT I would rather fish less and have a higher quality trip than save a few bucks and deal with low quality bait and fishing areas based on fuel consumption rather than were the fish are. IMHO, the Walmart mentality is infanitly more distructive. You do get what you pay for.

John Ruskin said “There is nothing in the world that some man cannot make a little worse and sell a little cheaper, and he who considers price only is that man's lawful prey.”
