Default Re: Would you move for the sake of fishing?

Cayuga Lake has some good trolling for lake trout if you know what you are doing and the stream fishing for trout is not bad if you know where to go. One of the kids just graduated from Cornell with a BSc and an MS so I got to know Ithaca well while they were taking my money.
I live in Princeton, but have another house in St. Michaels MD on the Eastern Shore of Chesapeake Bay. Both houses have about the same value but the real estate taxes are less than a third of NJ. My boat is in a slip across the street from my house and I can catch fish or crabs within sight of my slip. There is a very nice maritime museum (if you are into boats) within an easy walking distance as well as at least a dozen restaurants and a couple of grocery stores. Half my neighbors are retired while the other half are weekenders. It is about 3 hours from New Jersey and I make the trip most weekends until I retire. At that point I will sell the NJ house, keep the one in St. Michaels and buy another one on Winyah Bay in South Carolina.
Almost forgot - buying teh place in St. Michaels was my wife's idea. She loves it.
