I've been eating the over $3 fuel for the past three years, clams are now $50 a bushel (if you can get them), dockage and insurance up over $1,000 a year.

I've NEVER thought about any of this on a daily basis to do what I do and have eaten this increases against my gross income.
My dad told me a couple years ago, this is a business, when you stop making money it's time to get out. Fortunately, I have a good business, I go where I gotta go to get it done but we still have to get paid.. I can't keep taking from my end to justify the means.
If you want to save some money there are plenty of boats offering Groupon, just not me. The fare should actually be $75 for as hard as we work!!! Vikesdad made a great point in, it's a shame we have to do this when the fishing is getting worse. Blame the *******s who put us in this situation!!!


First day back, can't believe I even replied to this!
