[QUOTE="Skeeter, post: 253091, member: 726"] We are our own worst enemy when it comes to the latest and greatest. I grew up fishing with my dad in a $7000 fish/ski boat with a humminbird digital graph that was marginal at best and we always caught fish even in the tough times of the late eighties a and early nineties on the lake. Now I have a $40,000 boat and $3000 in electronics that show me everything and it almost seems like it was more enjoyable and relaxing back then. The keeping up with the jones and having the biggest engine and boat possible and the newest and greatest electronics has taken away from excitement and enjoyment of fishing. IMO. I live to fish but I often find my mind wandering back to those simple times of fishing with my dad and simple equipment [/QUOTE]
