We all know about ammo so lets not even bring that up. What about cost of hunts, barrels of bear bait, minnows, that sort of thing. My brother said AZ applications were up 30 % and they have a high application cost. What are you all seeing?

Everything will be more expensive and if gas prices ever come back down the prices of everything else will stay high, how it always happens. Probably $5 a dozen for night crawlers by summer.

I keep my shocking rods handy for worms. If not the old wiggle the ground with a shovel in a good spot or two gets me enough to fish all day with. Maybe sell a few hundred dozen this spring and summer on the side at $5 a pop.

All this price hike, seems will backfire. Probably be a lot less people hunting, fishing, pursuing outdoor activities. Then when they wonder why no one supports "this and that" it'll be because "you" jacked up the price. So you want my money, bring things back to normal.
Just sayin i dont want to be preached at about supporting guns, archery fishing hunting etc when someone else wants to get rich off everyone cuz of a scare or cuz everyone else is jackin stuff up

I filled my personal truck this morning, A fat nickel less than $3.00 a gallon for the cheap 87 octane, 10% corn alcohol. I am glad I have a company truck for every day use. A tank in my truck lasts a month or so. I am also glad my camp is 13 miles away, for my fishing, hunting and most trapping. I only think it will get worse, going forward.


you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!

Watch the price of everything....you don’t hand out nearly $4T in a twelve month period and not have across the board inflation. It just doesn’t work that way!

Better get your land now while you're at it, price is not getting cheaper. Lease land is going up, guided hunts are getting unrealistic and the first place hunting/trapping will be outlawed is on public lands. Please tell me im wrong...
