Are you in Real Estate or Construction? - The Hull Truth

little tooth · 12-20-2007, 11:47 AM

I have found that lot of the fisherman I come across down here are in the Construction and / or Real Estate business. I thought it would be interesting to see how many of us on the board are in either or both of these industries.

I personally own a residential building company and a real estate consulting/ development company.

I wonder what the correlation is between the business and fishing. Maybe the flexibility with time?

Thanks for your thoughts!

I guess it depends how you run your business. Apparently many construction guys have enough time to up and leave to fish tournaments on a regular basis.

We own a small business that sells and installs cabinets to builders, and homeowners. Since we have only owned the business for just over a year, we do not have a lot of free time.
