My husband and I are very different when it comes to fishing together. I like to talk and he likes to answer with a yes or no, never initiating any form of conversation. It’s his quiet time away from the big city and away from talkers like me …

1. If I were a crappie, I’d want to live here.
2. I got my hook stuck on the anchor rope again.
3. My hand smells like a minnow bucket.
4. Why is that turtle following my bobber?
5. Can you get the turtle away from my bobber?
6. Have you ever caught a turtle?
7. I caught a (blipping) turtle.  Get it off.

And he hardly ever answers.  So I concentrate on fishing and start talking to myself  whether my husband is listening or not.

I caught this 5 lb crappie on a pink taily twirly majigger using a squirmy slimy stinky minnow under a bobbie and my husband could careless because it’s his “quiet time”.

And then my husband decides to talk to me so he can video tape what I just said … and well …

If you noticed, I was still talking when he cut me off.

I think I’m better off having a camera crew just follow me around.

And thank goodness I had on a hat ’cause there was a bird about to dive on me.

Bird attack.

In my squirrel’s nest.

So then my husband had to show off his crappie …

And I think that was the most he talked all week.

And he wasn’t even talking to me.

He ignored me.

Have a good day all … and after umpteen showers, I think my hand still smells like a minnow bucket.

Maybe that’s why my husband ignores me.
