She Finally Bit!

     I think Bass Tech’s favorite character, Chigger said it best, “When you find a good looking woman who drives a truck and wants to go fishin’, You can forget it cause the search is over”. Well I guess that is just what happened to FLW Pro Terry Bolton.

     Terry Bolton and fellow co-angler Pro Pam Wood are going to seal the deal after meeting and falling in love while on tour. Hey, what about co-worker relationships at the work place? Who cares. FLW has done a cover story on the two. You can read the article by going to http://www.flwoutdoors.com/article.cfm?id=146716. As I read the article I really started to think about all of the advantages of having your wife or significant other fishing on tour with you. Then as I began to run out of advantages, I began to come up with disadvantages. While they both hold true, I am going to favor the percs. Now this could be just because my wife doesn’t fish on the tour with me, which would definitely save me allot of frustration and explanation. Either way, you decide for yourself.

Here are just a few for each off of the top of my list.

Advantages:    1) Much more time can be spent on the water without having to wonder if you are missing a romantic meal that your spouse has slaved over all day.  2)  You never have to try and explain why you need to buy 4 more rod and reel combinations to go along with your growing collection of 25.  3)  **Even if you have a crummy tournament, you still have a chance on cashing a paycheck as long as the other does well.

Disadvantages:  1)  **If you have a horrible tournament, the chances of the other doing well aren’t very good if the both of you practiced together.  2) If you do get beat, others will talk about it, and yes it will be mean.  3)  Just thinking of your wife grunting all of the time as she rips mean hook-sets. What if she farts?

     So with that GettingReel says to the both of you, Congratulations & Good Luck!
