[cool][#0000ff]Glad to hear the perch are moving in closer. What part of the lake were you fishing? Near one of the ramps at Hailstone or at Rock Cliff?[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Keep your wife happy and maybe she will let you join the BFT float tube floatilla. We have much fun and catch many fish. Cheaper than a boat (and gas) and often more effective.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]No need to warn me about the IKEA store. My survival instincts keep me away from those things. Fortunately, TubeBabe would rather go fishing than shopping. Am I lucky or what?[/#0000ff]

[cool][#0000ff]TubeBabe grew up in a family that liked fishing too. And, she already knew a bit about the sport when we "hooked up". Most of her previous experience had been either as a boater or a bank tangler but she was open to try tubing. Once she got the hang of it she really took to it.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I can't claim any credit for "converting" her to like fishing. The best I can offer is that guys need to be patient with spouses or kids, if they want them to embrace fishing. If you make their first trips enjoyable...about them and not you...you have a better chance to get them excited about it. As most of us have witnessed, once someone "lights up"...after catching something...they are a lot easier to persuade to hit the water thereafter.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Believe me, if I had the magic solution to making wives want to become fisherpersons I would have been comfortably retired a long time ago. Instead, I just take advantage of my own good fortune...and feel sorry for other guys that have to beg or buy their kitchen passes.[/#0000ff]

Something about wives letting you go fishing on the 7th anniversary, that was our trip to Lake Powell last week. Congratulations on also having a great wife.
