I married young ( the first time)...my wife had plenty of warning, friends, family , even a former girlfriend all tried to warn her.. I believe, she thought she could change me...night after night, I dissapeard fishing, that year we had a huge school of 20lb class bass roaming joppa flats with lock jaw.. night after night I got skunked ( if I only knew then what I know now).. she confided in a friend that I surely had a girl friend.. word got back to me and I became angry, and more determined... one night( after 27 straight fishless nights) i scored big... 6 fish all between 20- 30 lbs... fired up, sleep depraved,I was filled with emotion and anxiety, upon arriving home I i pulled back the sheets and threw the biggest bass ( 30lbs) into the bed with her and proclaimed here's my #%&*$%&%$#$ girlfriend....we remained married for 7 years before she went crazy .. she now resides in a "home" in santa monica .. true story with a moral... people dont change, not quickly anyway... sometimes, some will try and change us, but what we do makes us who we are.. I wish you the best of luck.. seek compromises, but make her understand that fishing and being on the water is what makes you who you are..
sorry for the hijack
tight lines
