With all the talk of greenhouse gas, I'm wondering if it's possible for sportsfishermen to cut back on pollution.
My 175 is a pig on gas but I can't afford a 4 stroke. Besides it would probably sink my transom.
I conservatively used about $35/day fishing off Port Renfrew in 2005.
Then, in 2006, disaster hit: my big motor packed it in. Waiting for a mechanic to look at it would take a chunk out of the season so I opted to use my 4 stroke kicker to get me out. It took about an hour but, hell, I'm past the stage of getting up at 4 am so it was time to "smell the roses". It was fantastic: no pounding into the rollers. Just a nice relaxing 6knots....
Anyone else got suggestions on "Green Fishing"?
