So I was laying in bed last night watching chasing shadows on you tube . Bowler is is having a crack for the Barbel on the wye, and says he is using a 2lb test curve rod. The misses piped up and say “a 2 pound Tesco rod” I thought he was a professional, surely that rod he is using is crap.
What silly things has the other half said when she tries to join in on your non stop angling chat . ?

"Oh yes I'd love to come and sit with you at the weekend, it'd be cool to see one of them carp!"
My last bite was in September... I admire her enthusiasm though.

My ex said to me.... Maybe if I dressed up as carp you'd pay me some attention 🤭... She never did though so she had to go 😂

My dream is to go to Florida and catch a tarpon
My wife approached a local friend of ours who has a tackle shop and asked
How do I go about arranging a trip for my husband to catch a tarpaulin 😂

- could have been worse. She could have come home with a box of 'feminine hygiene' products for you...

My other half doesn't understand why I sit in the cold and wet for days on end without catching,she also calls carp “carbs” and when I met her she did think I could bring them home to eat,I will stress she's not foreign she's 💯 % English but of Carribean decent

Quote from my divorce .
“ you did think more of your fishing friends than me “
Apparently that was unreasonable behaviour !!!!
She was correct , I did

I had a similar conversation with my ex Mrs although not fishing related, during one heated argument she shouts at me “you think more of West Ham than you do of me”,
“I think more of Tottenham than I do of you” was my retort. Boom.
I'd waited 20 years to say that lol
