Met my wife at college in 1983. We were married in spring of 1989 and are still together..I've hunted and fished all of our marriage years and she did some of it with me before our daughter came along (19yrs ago). The last 10-12 years she has been quite tolerant of my passion for fishing that runs year round. Spring to fall is full of walleye tourneys around the western US and fall to spring is river walleye and steelhead time..Shes a great person, terrific wife and mother, and a better friend. We ran into our biggest life challenge this past Sept when she was diagnosed with stage IV cancer. The boats have been garaged since that day. I miss fishing but I won't miss any chance to spend time with her right now..Lifes been good to us so far and we're hoping for more of the same...
