My fiance loves to fish so no problems between the two of use. We have been living together for 2 years now and have never had any problems.

Roger I have told my fiance the same thing. I tell her it could be worst I could be drinking or at a strip club. The way I see it is at least I don't drink and I don't do drugs, what more can she ask for.

In September through December of 2005, I went twice a week, 6 to 8 hours per trip.  My wife thought I was nuts.  Lately, I've been getting out for 2 or 3 hours per trip and she is glad to get me out of the house for awhile.  The conclusion is, if you are married and especially with kids (I have three), either take the kids or limit your fishing time to whatever is OK with your wife.  If you are single, fish your tail off as long at it doesn't interfere with your daily responsibilities.

Let's see, if I compare you to me.

I live and breath fishing, morning noon and night.

I even dream about it,  ::)  sooooooooooo nope no problem.

I think you need to fish more!  ;D

I don't fish on the weekend. The weekend is for my kid and fiance. Come the summer I spend all weekend on the beach with the 2 of them but right now we just go outside and play.

Avid no one has said anything about how much I fish. I was just wanting to know how much does everyone else fish.

   The only problem I see is that you are only going fishing for two hours on those days.  You need to extend those trips by a couple of hours and throw in at least one more day.  I liked your comments concerning drugs, drinking, etc. in allowing you to make these fishing trips.  My lovely wife makes the same statements to me about not drinking, etc. and says go when I want and for as long as I want.  I am retired and she says that I have earned it.  (Also, I do not have anything against drinking - in moderation.  'Been there-done that'.  Just wanted to clear that up.)

The first step on the road to a cure is admitting you have a problem. I only fish every chance I get. After work, before work, all weekend. No problem. We don't need no stinking cure!!

Yes you have a big problem and you MUST start going to meetings. They will be at the lake at sunup everyday that ends in "y" and we will all be there to support you in your addiction--um-- I mean recovery. 8-)
