I just had to let you all know that I have been blessed in my life. Great parents, great wife and kids, great job, and a great education. When I finally retired, I could hardly wait to spend time enjoying my favorite pastime -- bass fishing. I got my own little fishing boat and tried to get my wife to join me, but she just never liked fishing.
Finally, one day at the Bait & Tackle Shop, I got to talking to Sam, the shop owner, who it turned out loves bass fishing as much as I do. We quickly became fishing buddies. As I said, the wife doesn't care about fishing; she not only refuses to join us, she always complains that I spend too much time fishing.
A few weeks ago Sam and I had the best fishing trip ever. Not only did I catch the most beautiful bass you've ever seen, only a few minutes later Sam must have caught his twin brother! So I took a picture of Sam holding up the two nice bass that we caught and showed the picture to the wife, hoping that maybe she'd get interested. Instead, she says she doesn't want me to go fishing at all anymore! And she wants me to sell the boat! I think she just doesn't like to see me enjoying myself.
What would you do? Tell the wife to forget it and continue my hobby or quit fishing and sell the boat as she insists?
Thanks, Marty
P. S. I have enclosed the picture of Sam showing off the bass we caught.

Wife wants me to quit fishing
Re: Wife wants me to quit fishing
Marty you beat me to it. I fished with Sam last week and got the same thing! I just wasn't sure about posting the adventure! But now you've 'dropped' the bar so to speak so it's all open from here!

Re: Wife wants me to quit fishing
wow those are 2 nice largies !!! I had to scroll back up and read that again looking for the part about the nice beaver but i couldnt find it.....
Re: Wife wants me to quit fishing
ok this calls for clarification of the term "flipping a beaver"....is that a bait and technique or does that mean like to flip her over and eat her like an ice cream cone? Best thing about fishing with Sam is she always wears her PFD! Safety First anglers!!!
