Best wife ever!! 2024

Rangerphil reply :

Went to the local sporting goods store with the wife today. She never goes in with me but today she did, as I was standing staring at the 60.00 frabill net I have been wanting, my wife grabs the net and says let's go!

I walked out with a big smile and a new net. I need to talk her into going more often. ;D

I know what you mean...When I tell my fiance how much I want a ranger, she replies "you know when we get married I'll be helping you pay for your boat, just as long as I can read while you fish"

All my fishing buddies ask if she has a sister haha

JigMe reply :

Shoot, my wife will slap the life out of me every time I buy tackles...hahaha

Looks like you took the bait! Once you get married she will be like, what boat?

flippin and pitchin reply :

MY wife would have said, " Don't you have to actually catch a fish to need a net ? "

My wife bought me a St. Croix Mojo baitcasting rod for X-mas and another one for our anniversary. Right now I've been looking at a bigger boat and she wants me to get one so she'll have more room to tan when we're fishing. Last weekend she asked me to take this Sunday off so we can go fishing because I bought her a new St. Croix Avid pearl and Quantum Energy PT because he old pole got busted last time we went and she wants to try her new one out. She had to twist my arm a little bit but she talked me into it :.

fishermantony reply :

My wife thinks I must me less of a fisherman because I have and buy so much tackle. She says "if you were good, you wouldn't need all that stuff." Ha Ha Ha......new boat is going to be a tough sell....

Funniest thing i read all day because my wife says the same thing.

slonezp reply :

Ahhhh...She's one up on you. Don't be fooled. All she's doing is hoarding ammunition.

"Honey, I'm getting this purse(or necklace or whatever)"

---"We can't afford it right now"

"But I bought you that stupid net. You don't even catch fish and if you do they're certainly not big ones. I'm getting this purse!"

---You walk away with your tail between your legs.

My girl is pulling the "You don't need another boat" song and dance right now.

"We're not going to do anything stupid are we."

---"Who's we?"

"I mean you"

---"It'll be much easier to fish out of a bass boat than the boat I have now. Plus there is more storage for my rods and tackle."

"But what about when I want to go out on the boat?"

---"I fish more than you want to go out on the boat, plus it's my money"(Don't ever use those words ;D)

"Then you don't tell me how I should spend my money!"

---"Fine!"

"Fine!"

Onandonandonandonandonandon.

...and we're not married. ;D

BTW I will be getting a new boat.

CSimon2 reply :

My wife tells me I have enough fishing stuff to last me a life time. She does not understand as she does not have a hobby she is passionate about.

Rangerphil reply :

I always try and buy her something a week before I really want something new that way she does not give me a hard time, but this was out of nowhere! Well at least for now

endless reply :

My wife is just getting into fishing. So I went and got a bigger jon boat. 14' tracker from a 11' sears to take her with me. My problem I still get the words "do you you really need this now" "It's your money do what you want with it...........but I think it's stupid"................ just for her to either try to claim it to having to share like my hooks, weights, whatever she claiming. I bought her own lil tackle box just for her to attack mine and gut it. Hopefully we will have fun together. She does get excited when we went bank fishing last year and boy don't let her be the only one to catch something. She doesn't hush up and it doesn't matter if your spend your time retying her hooks and trying to get her line out from being snagged.

tholmes reply :

My wife just bought me a new 5600 CL Rocket for my birthday.

Plus a half-dozen Rapala baits (two X-Raps, two Rattlin' raps, two jointed Shad raps), and a couple of packs of Culprit worms.

Ain't that the truth.

SirSnookalot reply :

My wife is wonderful and she has been a great mother as well. I buy what I what, no questions ever asked, but I already paid my dues. Raised my family, sent them to college, married them off and put away for my retirement..........

I'm just thankful my wife doesn't fish, I'm not about to stop every 45 minutes so she can take a whizz.

My wife (and most of the other posters wives, I'm sure) does all that too. But it's a welcome and much-appreciated bonus that she also takes an interest in and supports my hobbies.

My wife is only 31 and this is her. But to be truthfully honest I'm all for her going cause besides eating out almost every Friday we really don't do nothing exciting together. She does like fishing when do go so I got her own combo and tackle. She definitely wants to do more now after she had the gastric done. She feels more confident and outgoing. She claims to not wait to go this year when the weather breaks and the fish bite is on.

Agreed!

clayton86 reply :

my wife will complain some times even though we have a deal that regular paychecks go towards bills and the kids and stuff she wants. but my army drill pay funds my hobbies fishing,hunting(.243 ammo is crazy expensive), R/C trucks,paintball so i just buy her her "cute" lures and then i get to go nuts on everything else. as long as she gets some pink cute lures she lets me blow my weekly fund. she loves to fish just the same stoping to pee or eat especialy right when the fish turn on

central.PA.bass reply :

can I get your wife's cell number to give to my fiancee? lol..

Mine really loves fishing with me on my boat and i should have never showed her my stash of soft plastics because everytime we walk thru the Fishing aisle atg sporting goods stores she informs me that i "do not need any more"..

clayton86 reply :

i get the "do u really need more or that many" line alot but i just tell her plastic baits don't last long which is some what true she doesn't know i still got 3 packs in my bag. she also doesn't get why i need all the different colors baby bass,shad, chartreuse all she goes by is "aw that ones cute it looks like a baby fishy"

Flywatersmallie reply :

If the money is in the bank, mine lets me do what I want. There have been times when I come home with a couple dozen Lucky Craft baits or 50 bags of plastics, I never get a bad time about it. Her attitude is that its better than sitting in the bar or the casino and having nothing to show for it.

aceman387 reply :

I have an understanding wife,she knows my love for fishing and knows that fishing is the only thing that i really spend money on, plus we split the bps rewards money we get, i spend the spring money on my fishing gear and since her sport is bow hunting she spends the fall rewards money on her sport.

me and my brother in law try explaining that to my wife when she gets on my case about fishing and hunting it could be worse i could drink and smoke and a ton of other things but instead i just hunt and fish i haven't drank sense i turned 21 4 years ago. so really hunting and fishing isnt that bad of a habbit

ChiCityBasser reply :

My wife enjoys Cabelas as much as I do and wants to go each time I go now and gets a bit upset if I make the trip without her. She wanted a smoker so I told her we would go this weekend and she wanted to have lunch there as well. I was at BPS the day before with my brothers and picked her up a BPS shirt which she wore to Cabelas, lol as some of the salesmen ribbed her about the shirt choice. We got her smoker and I wanted to take a look at the Cabelas micro guide rods. I did and we went and had lunch and during lunch there she said I should get the rod. We went back to take a look and a salesman came over and she asked him how many fishing setups he had, his response was 40. She said wow and asked how many I had and I said 10-12 and she said go ahead and put the rod on layaway and I'll get it out.

So new rod will be out next week thanks to the wifey.

Glad she likes Cabelas

chromedog reply :

My wife is usually great about me buying tackle. She knows I will not be stupid and that I wouldn't spend the money if we couldn't spare it. She has even called BPS or Tackle Warehouse to take care of problems or ask questions. She doesn't really fish, but likes to tag along sometimes. She will let me fish 6 out of 7 days usually. I just have to do what she asks me, when she asks me and then I usually can pretend to be an adult.

She actually likes going to BPS cause she can wander the mall and then make me go eat at Buffalo Wild Wings.

Now with that said, she just can't wrap her mind around the Megabass Pop Max I bought. She just said I better not lose it. I think she mentioned something about going in after it if need be, lol.

But you guys are right. I know in my case my wife knows I am not in the bars, in trouble, "fishing" for women or anything else dumb so she lets me breathe. But make no mistake, she is still in charge.

Bass_Fanatic reply :

Sorry guys but your wives may be great, but mine is THE best. She allows me to fish 3 days a week as I work the other 4. She doesn't complain, is pretty cheap, and does whatever she can to help me out with anything. I bought about 1k worth of tackle in January with no complaints and I have put over 1k in my motor (which is about to go back to the shop) with little complaints lol.

P.S. I know this doesn't have to do with fishing, but I have to brag when I get the chance. She is actually in Haiti right now doing some mission work with our church. She is the only girl there. Shes a soldier and a hard worker, and I cant wait for her to come home this Saturday!!

bradbass reply :

My wife usually wants to fish almost as much as me so she is pretty good about letting me get wahtever I need. But I still hear the comments. "why do you need so much " you already have green ones why do you need three colors" bla bla bla, I am just thankful that my wife and kids love fishing its awesome to go as a family real quality time. Last year my son who is 4 started waking me up to go fishing." Dad can you take me fishing" priceless!
