Join the club.
I went from freshwater fishing, to fly fishing, to pier fishing (sinker casting), to saltwater fly fishing, to cattle boat fishing, to lobster hooping, to kayak fishing, to ice ("hardwater") fishing. Add scuba to the list too, but no spear gun in US. Snorkeling and spear fishing in Istanbul, before US.
I was walking the isles of Bass Pro Shops with nothing I needed, until I got to Kayak fishing. For ice fishing it was mostly Ebay.
Sometimes I wonder if I am too much in the buying business, then I see my wife's shoe collection among other items.
