I believe your wife is right!I fished with A friend for two years and I was extatic to get the chance to get off the bank.I always split the cost of the trip.It was my statement of appreciation and it anabled us to get out more often.He had other friends and they just mooched.I'm not talking fishing tactics here.I know there are times when A friend simply doesn't have the funds right now and that is fine.But you should recognise the pattern.The only thing better than A good day fishing is A day fishing with a GOOD FRIEND.
