Canuck2fan Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Welcome Splashopper.... My name is Canuck2fan and I am a fishing addict.... How you will know you have the dreaded disease of fishing addiction is when you base your tiling price quotes on how many reels it will purchase. Or it might simply be when you offer your wife a deal she can have that shoe closet when you get an equal sq footage for a fishing gear storage room.... Also if you have more than 4 Steelhead rods and are actively looking for more take warning. If you sole criteria for purchasing a new vehicle is if it will hold all your gear, your fishing buddies and tow the boat that would be a sign... The signs are many but by being on here you will find out how to deal with all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radnine Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 (edited) Welcome aboard Slashhopper! It sounds like you’ve carved out a nice existence for yourself. As a 13.7 handicapper let me offer this tidbit; there are loads of bad days on the golf course, in fact you can make an argument that everyday you don’t birdie every hole, is a bad day. But there is no such thing as a bad day of fishing. They just don’t happen. You are going to love this group.
