Women in Waders
What is better than a woman who likes to fish? A women that likes to fish and bears your last name. Now, my wife Liz is not die-hard. She does enjoy going fishing with me every once in a while. She will strap on waders, sit in a boat or on a bank for hours and catch whatever she can. My dad and I have taken Liz fishing with us a few times and she has out fished both of us and my dad loves it. The first time I took Liz fishing in a stream, after she got a pair of waders for Christmas, we got skunked. I pulled the trigger too early on my go-to smallmouth stream and the fish just weren’t there yet. She toughed it out for two and a half hours and almost got swept down stream near one riffle. We will be going back to that spot on the Elkhorn Creek. Liz’s favorite is fishing in the boat. The first time we took her on the boat she killed it and caught bigger and more fish than Dad and I. She was given tips on where to cast but not how to set the hook. It was really fun to watch and the first time I remember thinking it was fun to watch someone catch more fish than myself. I have to choose my trips carefully to make sure we keep catching fish and she continues to like going.
