Hey jedburton, the first time I ever took my wife fishing, she wasnt my wife yet, and we went on a float tubing trip to jordanelle.
Well, I learned a lot that day. I wondered why she just stayed put in the same place all day. So after the trip, I asked. Turns out she was hung up on the bottom all day and didnt want to say anything.
You gotta be kidding me right?!
Well, turns out she was a bit embarrased and didnt know what to do. Who would have thought. Needless to say, she didnt catch anything that day. And it set the standard for all our trips since. If something dont look right, its time to step in.
Now some of the more fortuante anglers here have ladies in thier life who out fish them. I will never forget the day skeeters wife outfished him and me at willard. I think she had 17 wipers to my 15 and skeeter only had 4. It was pretty good. But her father is a fishing nut. X-man has a woman who is pretty handy with a rod and reel. I dont think she has as many state records as he does, but one day.
