This is the one I here from my girlfriend all the time: "It's funny how when you talk to me on the telephone you always keep or conversations short because you say "you don't like to talk on the phone", but when a fishing buddy calls you, the two of you can talk fishing for an easy half an hour at a time!" Ohy vay! BD

Since my GF watches far more TV than I do I just throw it out there that I hardly ever watch TV and that solves the problem. Hope she never factors in actual fishing time, surfing the web for fishing stuff, talking about fishing etc.

I watch hunting on the bigscreen and she says notta. If she wants to watch something else she can go fight my 4 year old daughter for the other tv.

My wife is pretty cool about hunting tv shows and videos as she hunts. She seldom comments on the fishing shows either, but the phone calls can set her off.......
As a matter of fact my brother called me this morning (Fri) at 6 am to see if I could get him current flow rates and to tell me of his success the previous evening. Even though I was up and about my wife was not too happy. She said it was too early in the morning to be talking about fishing.
Should of seen here when I told her I was considering takin the day off to fish.....

i dont have a wife, but when i watch hunting fishing, or football she hates it. she always comes with; "lets watch something we both like." so everytime, i go through all the channels, when she sees one that she likes, i just say i dont like them, and go back just in time for the kill shot

Geez.. I feel like I am revealing something to one of those 12 step groups..
"Hi my name is Kaari, I'm a girl, and I watch hunting & fishing shows even when men aren't around."
Hunting with Hank is my favorite, even though they hunt mainly preserves.
(Crimine sakes.. Sparks is messing with my signature.. helped me with my avatar and took it upon himself to change it..)

CFM, Darn tootin'. And you'll notice from the pic, she gets the neo chest waders and I get the knee highs. But then I don't have a chest to put in the neos either.

CFM, Was it something I said? I only meant that I am not fit to wear her waders. (I'm 6'1") Plus, she can outfish me anyday. Maybe one day though, after some more "practice", I'll be good enough to justify getting a pair of my own. Not sure if she's buying it though. I keep getting those funny looks when I tell her I gotta go "practice" some more. But hey, practice makes perfect right?

My wife enjoys fishin n huntin shows. But -- if there is somethin that she would rather watch she goes in the bedroom and watches it. She does like to fish. Not as much as I do -- course very few people outside of this BB like to fish as much as I do (5-7 times a week, MINIMUM!)
Sincerely, Roger

When I turn on the fishn shows shows, my wife says thats all I watch and that I have a MENTAL PROBLEM. Whan I talk on the phone or go fishn with my fishn buddy, Shanerd, she insists that I should have just married him. But when I actually go fishn, All I here is that I am always on the water and I dont care about our relationship. I tell her that I wasnt put on this earth to impress her or anyone else. Iwas born to fish. She knows that I would rather fish than f@%$!!!
