OK Angg,

I wasn't going to tell you this. But now that you have hitched yer wagon, I'll give you one suggestion that just might help get you more quality time with your beau.

Try letting him catch a fish or two when you both go fishing together. That way if you're not catching all the fish maybe he'll want to spend more time fishing with you.

I know this changed things for me and the Mrs.. Of course, the admiring remarks she would coo every so often about the prodigious size of my catch or my renowned fishing prowess didn't hurt either. Sometimes when I'm really having a tough string of luck, she'll even hand off her catch to me and say 'it doesn't really matter who hooks 'em, it's landing them that counts". And the gentle reminders every so often that I usually get skunked with my low life buddies and never with her hasn't hurt either.

In retrospect I gotta say I just wouldn't be the fisherman I am today without her. Hope ol' Mikey can look back and say the same.
