Is there a 12 step program for Fishing?
Right around Christmas eve my wife sent me to Wallyworld (AKA Walmart) to pick up wrapping paper, tape and the like for the presents. Like any good husband I was happy to get out of the house and off I went. Upon arriving, I went directly to the fishing isle and promptly picked up two crankbaits, some swimbaits, hooks, jigs, and few other odds and ends. All of which I have plenty of already (of course you can never have too much). Happy with my new purchase, off I went home. I completely forgot to pick up the wrapping paper stuff! Of course, I told her they were all out of wrapping paper!!
Now just the other day she sent me to BJ's to pick up the usual groceries. The Southbranch just happens to be a mile or so away from BJ's. Being one that always keeps a rod in the truck, I stopped by for some winter trout. An hour into my fishing, I got a text from her asking if I hadn't left BJ's yet, could I pick up a few more items. Of course, I said, "just for you I'll go back and get it".
I started to think, does anyone else do this? Or do I need some type of program. Frankly I don't think I would do well in FA (Fisherman's Anonymous).
Does anyone else do this? I think I know the answer!!
