Good luck with finding her, Circlehook. You'll know when you meet the right girl. My wife my is best friend and miss her when we're not together. But, I still have a ton of fun when I go away with my buddies for the weekend. I like knowing that when I get home she'll be waiting for me. My wife is good with the fishing thing because she know it's important to me. But, she also knows that she and my son are most important to me. I just do my best to balance the two. I make sacrifices, but still probably get out more than a lot of people. I ended up giving up golf when I had a child because there is not enough time for 2 passions and a hobby. My family is #1 and fishing is #2, then if there is any time left over, it's sports on T.V., work around the house and cards with my friends. If I have any regret, it is missing out on a lot of good fishing when I was single because I was more interested in raising hell and chasing skirts than being out fishing in the middle of the night.
