I have to kinda agree with Butthurt. Most people with getting married age friends get invited to these a few times a year. Its not easy for everyone with young kids and jobs to getaway for 3-4 days at a time, a few times a year. Only so many vacation days and not to forget these trips aren’t cheap. Easy for the person planning cause it obviously fits in their schedule and budget. That being said them fishing trips with all your friends are pretty fun.
I’m always looking for an excuse to leave and fish somewhere new. Usually it’s with the same small group. Everyone else is great at coming up with reasons not to go. The ones who claim they can’t afford it spend plenty on booze and cigarettes etc. Don’t be that guy.
I have a standing offer with the guys I fish with. I’m ready anytime to go anywhere in the world fishing. Its not always easy to make it happen but it’s possible. If it costs a lot I just work more or save for longer. You only live once make it happen.
