Now there is a truthful lady.

For the record, I have nothing against women fishing. For my better half and I it just works better if she has her space and I have mine. We golf together, I bring her on business trips and we share everything but my fishing. Plus she hates the boat because her father was a commercial fisherman and she grew up working on a boat. She'd be happy if she never saw a boat again.

I do get her to go out with me 2 or 3 times a year just for a cruise around the Bay. 2:00 AM on the dark side of the moon headed for Anawan is not a place I want her anyway.

No boat, back in the suds.

I think you should squeeze two dates out of your idea. Make a night of the nicer dining out place and on another night make it subs on the beach, fishing, watch a nice sunset from the life guard chair. One thing, though, when you take her fishing go somewhere where it's not too crowded. First time I took my wife fishing it was elbow to elbow and I didn't even think that she'd never casted a line before. I ended up getting pissed because when she crossed other guys' lines I had to retreive it. Every cast went sideways. It was a nighmare. Still have that reel she threw down in the sand when she headed back to the truck crying. It all worked out though, 25 years later she's not much on surf fishing but we share lighter tackle sometimes.
