"I know a girl her name is Kristen...." Hey la de la.....

Back to the topic: I'm a weekend warrior myself as I don't live close to the salt - but I do go every weekend from May - Nov when I can. When on vacation though, fish every day.

In Season, 3-5 is bare minimum.

Mentally, yes. Realistically no

I'd be divorced AND a lousy dad if I did. Though if my wife's work schedule allowed it I'd be out a lot more weeknights than I am now. Hard for me to justify a babysitter to go fishing (as much as I can justify it to myself)

I also never smell like a bar or brewery - if I did, wifey might have concerns

Three is about my max. If I did any more than that I'd be single and would be forced to fish seven nights a week.

Hey, wait a minute......

Nah.
