Not counting on more fish being caught simply through buying a boat. However, bank access is limited at my local lakes, I could cover much more water when hitting the CR and Snake,and I simply miss having one.

I am thinking about using my current frustration with fishing as a positive to stay in town and devote some time to other hobbies of mine: shooting and rock climbing; all the while saving cash that would have been spent on weekends away.

I also plan on taking two or three guided days this spring, so having a boat purchased around that time seems like a win win.

Thank you for your input!
