I have been married to my wife for forty years, and I haven't been fishing once in those forty years that I haven't ask her if it was OK for me to go. Her reply has always been " go and enjoy yourself". I must say that I have a great wife, altho she did get a good laugh the other day when I came home and told her that I had fallen of the boat while trying to extract a hook from the palm of my hand. But we laugh about those things together. Fishing is up on my list but not high enough for me to leave the greatest gift that God has ever given me, other than the gift of salvation... She is not only a great wife, but she is also a great mother to my three children... The guy is 70 years old! What was he thinking??

This morning I was in the Intercoastal waterway throwing a spook across a stump that I didn't know was there, I hook up on a small bass, he went down and got the spook hooked on a root, and as I was trying to get my spook, the little bass was moving and I got stuck with the new gama hook that I had just put on yesterday, ( Man those things are sharp) the barb burried into my palm, and I was bleeding alot, I had to get the fish off before I could get the hook out. I finally got him in the boat, and was looking for my pliers to remove the hook. And at the same time a huge barge loaded with gravel was going bye, the waves got me and I lost my footing and I went into the drink. Here I am in the water with a spook burried in my hand, and 14 Lb test line wrapped around me, I lost my pliers. When I finally got back into the boat, I found another pair pliers and cut the shank and pulled the hook through. I dried myself ( at my age, I have to carry a change with me) I changed into some dry pants, and got my first aid kit out patched my hand up. I thought my day was wasted, but I picked up a 3/8 spinner bait and threw at that same area and hooked up on a 4 Lbr. I got home, told my wife and she hasn't stopped laughing. I didn't think it was funny at the time but now that I look back, it wasn't only funny, it was stupid on my part for getting stuck with the spook and then standing up as a huge barge was going bye. Goes to show you that you're never too old to learn. Well so much for my mistake.

Smart, if she don't let yah do what you want to do find someone else.

many fish in the sea my friend lol.

I fell out of the boat washing worm crap off of my hand......... Jenns not that good at bass fishing. But as soon as we are able to go again she wants me to show her how to fish a spook (fat chance) and let her catch a fish that I hooked if she couldnt hook one herself lol. I dont mind taking her bluegill fishing. If the bass arent hitting I catch bluegill anyway....... I dont know what I would do if I was in that situation. I would probably keep my girl and wait till she got over it and go fishing again. Hard choice lol........

its impossible to not catch bluegill,they will bite anything
