I felt that it was necissary to bring this up. I too started out with my wife in the car. Then I managed to get her at the bank sitting there with me while I fished and she read. I thought I was well on the way to getting a full time fishing partner with benefits. Then it came to a hault. I was back to fishing w/o her. So the only thing I could come up with was one of two things. Either she legitimately wanted to just go spend time with me, or she was just dispelling her suspicion of me not really going fishing. Being as it was common place for me to drive two to three hours (pre grab your ankles and pray gas prices) for just a couple hours of fishing. Imagine the Q&A after that kind of trip and coming back with nothing. I never got the Q&A ssession, but a left handed comment here and there was definitely dropped in my direction. Now, she either doesn't care that I am gone possibly carousing or she finally believes that I actually do go fishing.
