Fishing Addiction - Good or Bad?

[FISHINGNUT]

I know that all too well : I always get the, "When did you get that and how much did it cost"Question all of the time.

I always reply

I traded some flies and an old rod for it and some beer money as well.What a steal, its worth a fortune.

Yes it is an addiction, but a good one indeed.

OMG I just had that same conversation Saturday with my wife when i got back from Canadian tire with a bag full of stuff I didnt really need and again this afternoon when I got back from another restocking run from Toronto But I am all better now that my medication has kicked in while sitting in my pile of goodies trying to figure out where the hell I am goint to put it all again

I can stop fishing whenever I want........ :whistling:

Good or bad?

 

 

Good

Addiction is a subjective term. For me it's a part of the fabric of my being, in essence who I am.

 

Besides true greatness is never achieved without a single minded obsession.

 

(I read that in a fortune cookie last week. )

Hah!...........I was goona say, that's pretty in-depth!

My wife brings this topic up at least once a week....she's my best friend so I talk a lot about fishing to her....something I'm trying to control a bit more now

I keep telling her it could be a lot worse....I could be at the peeler bar every other day talking fishing to strange women

I said something along the same lines........She still din't seem to understand tho!......Remember, it's easier to ask for forgiveness than understanding!....How much was that four-wheeler?

Fishing is not an addiction, trips to the tackle store can be though.

 

And that's an addiction I've got bad! :D
