Bill Anderson Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 The events that followed weren't pretty, but I get to keep my new toy! ............When my wife and I got married, I told her to never come between me and my hobbies, expecially fly fishing. Well, I can say that she never has, and we're still married 42 years later. The only rough time was back in the 1980s when I bought my first Leonard bamboo, but she laughed more than got mad because I tried to sneak it into the house and got caught red handed. I have a friend, a Jewish carpenter, whom you should get to know. If you do, your life will never be the same.
On The Fly 6 Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 Haha. It really wasn't bad. She was mad at me for another reason, the new fly rod just gave her something else to fuss at me about. My wife is really great about letting me buy gear and go fishing whenever I get the chance and when we have the money. She knew about my obsession long before we got married.
