California Tackle shops in a Hurt

[stan]

Even with the price of gas less than $ 2.00 a gallon. Number of my friends that own tackle shops, there business is down over 50%. One of my friends is a tackle manufature he has cut back to 3 days a week and layed off a number of people. Then there are the fishing resorts that have lost over 40% of there yearly clients. Things out here are not looking to good for the sport fisherman. With so many lakes in the north state way below normal levels and boat ramps are high and dry. A few of our lakes are so low they predict the fish will not survive the low waters, with the ice cover.

I am about to, between the tree hugers , the fruits and our friends south of the border . This place has been out home for 3 generations on the same piece of dirt.. I think they all went to the same schoool. The one that teaches take, take, take and lie and return nothing.. Get anymore in the wagon , who is going to pull it ?
