    Your wife catches you scoping out every body of water you may pass by while driving, and she says to you "really? Is that all you think about?". True story.

  • When someone needs help getting out of the pool, you lip em out.

When your wife convinces you to do engagement photos by saying we are going to take them at Holiday Park while fishing. Yet another true story.

When you go out fishing for the day, the day of your wifes best friends wedding, in another state, and still make it in time to shower, change, and get to the place on time. Again, thanks Scott, lol.

When your willing to take a dump off the back of the boat so you will not lose any fishing time.

You use a 10" powerworm as air freshener in your truck.

Lol LMG sounds like you have quite the wife

When you can't wait to get your paycheck just so you can spend it all on fishing.

When most of your essays relate to fishing in some way.

When your Christmas list consists of things such as MTB and the mod pack from Siebert.

When you continue to fish as the sky grows dark, the wind is howling & the waves are building with the ramp only ten miles away.

That was one heck of a ride ~ !

When your Christmas tree ornaments are comprised entirely of fishing lures.

When your 5 year old son can back your boat into the water at a busy ramp like a pro

What a great thread! A shame this is only 3 pages long thus far.

When your wife falls off the boat into the lake right before it ices over and you dive in for the pole.

When you walk into a room in a guests house and scan the best spot to catch a big bass.

You talk more about the color of skirts than your wife.

When your wife holds the lure as you practice setting the hook and hit her in the eye with your rod tip.

When you snag your 2 year-old daughter in the living room with a huddleston swimbait. I'm not proud of this.

When you hook yourself and instead of going to the ER like a normal person you wrap duct tape around it and finish out the fishing day.

When you start to have withdraw symptoms when you haven't been on the water in more than a week.

When its 40 degrees out and you haven't caught a bass in weeks but still go out to the lake a couple days a week throwing every lure you have at every piece of cover you can find and even if you get skunked again, its ok cuz theres always tomorrow.

When your rent, cable, and phone bills are all late but you still spend $25 on new lures just because the department store you were in had a fishing section. (maybe not the smartest thing to do)

When your girlfriend wakes up at 530 am, wonders where you are, and then finds a note on the table that just says 'gone fishin'.

When your girlfriend snags yet another $6 crankbait and you just force a smile, tie on another one for her and tell her 'Cast towards that brush pile. Theres bound to be a bass under there" even though you know shes probably just going to be snagged again 10 minutes later.

When you install a new depth finder and want to try it out in January and launch at the only body of water that's not frozen over...the sewage treatment tank. " lots of suspended bigguns on the graph Buffard."

When your sister in law makes the comment to your wife,"He cant be fishing all the time,nobody likes to fish that much."

When you snag your 2 year-old daughter in the living room with a huddleston swimbait. I'm not proud of this.

When you snag your two year old daughter in the living room with a huddleston swimbait and you're not proud....because she didn't pull drag when you cranked her in! :laugh5:

- when you leave at 4 in the morning and your wife knows your not cheating on her.

- the wife hates passing a body if water cause you always have to make "just one cast"

You keep strike king and bps catalogs in your work truck so if its a hectic day you can relax by looking at some tackle. True story!

you take the hooks off of a jerk bait so your son can play with ”daddies fishies” while you mess with your tackle just for fun. True story.

You schedule household maintenance around your fishing schedule.

You know the inventory in the Gander Mountain fishing aisles better than the employees.
