When Mother Nature Calls.

What do ya do when the significant other goes with out on the boat and you hear "honey I gotta go potty' ? Do ya say just go, grab a bucket or take her to the nearest land and let her go.

Haven't had the pleasure of this situation but I figure the responses should be good for this one.....

I do have a similar situation with my ex.....we were on a road trip in my wrangler and we were in the middle of nowhere and she wanted to stop. I said it would be a little while she should just go out of one of the drain holes in the floor, completely kidding. I guess she found it to be a challenge and next thing you know she is on the floorboard squatting over the hole....cracked me up.

My wife and I fish from a canoe, so we hit land, and I usually take care of my business and stretch my legs at the same time. That being said, my wife has done the #1 in a poland springs bottle more than once when the lake was too populated to pull over. I married a true trooper, and a beauty.

Buy yourself an Allison to fish out of. The new models have a built in porta potty.

Not saying where or who I found this out from, but put some water in the livewell.  Let her go.  Re-circ a couple times.  Good to go!

She squats over the side of the boat. That woman has no shame I tell you. Shes almost as bad as me.

Yeah, but will she release a mud shark into the livewell?

[The Rooster]

Bucket. For #2 we hit the trees. If no trees then bucket and plastic bags and strange looks back at the launch ramp throwing it in the trash.

No shame. In her younger days she had squatted in alleys behind bars in Chicago. Nowadays on the boat, she holds it or we find a restaurant/bar  to dock up at. She'd squat in the woods as a last resort.

Tell her to stand up and bank left really hard. Once she is in the water no one will see what she does except the fishies!

[J Francho]

I know more than one guy that carries a portable "potty training" chair in their boat.

[Darren.]

If it's warm, make sure she wears her bathing suit...and tell her to take a short swim. Not like it's gonna kill the fishies or anything.

If we're talking turtle head, then my fishing day is over!

[J Francho]

I actually won a partners tournament where both my boater and I had to make a "run" back to the porta potty at the launch, lol.

[K_Mac]

My wife is as good a partner in fishing and life as I could hope for. With that said, when nature calls we go to the bank, or the porta-potty depending on her need. I, on the other... hand have had my large, white butt hanging over the side for the world to see more than once. A man has got to do what a mans got to do.

[fadetoblack21]

I keep crap paper in the boat. . . she doesn't go with me ever, but if the kid has to go I take her to the bank and let her do her business. For me, I lost a glove during deer season dropping a load in the woods and fishing would be no different. 

[flyfisher]

I have had the bubble guts a few times, before I figured out it was the double shot espresso Starbucks drinks, where I had to lean over the kayak......all I can say is am thankful for scuppers

[SirSnookalot]

Does Shimano have a line of toilet paper?

[TrippyJai]

After this thread, I need to start bringing a roll of TP with me on my fishing trips. Just in case.

[DelfiBoyz_One_and_Only]

Just take a piece of 3/4 pressure treated plywood cut 3 15 inch squares put them in a row and hinge them together be creative and mount a toilet seat.  When not in use it will fold semi flat.  When in use make the u shape  out of it sit the toilet seat on top and handle your business. 

 

Never done it just a idea!

That's an easy one....

 

Just insert a "T" after the "Shi" and before the "mano" and VOILA!   LOL 

[A-Jay]

Does Shimano have a line of toilet paper?

 

I believe they do -

 

Let's see we have, the Stella, the Sustain, the Stratic, the Sedona & the "Septic"  -

 

Seems to fit in nicely.

My oldest daughter had to tinkle one time during a trip to the lake. It wouldn't have been that embarrassing....but in the launch parking pot waiting to off load ?  I guess the pot-a-potty was pretty rank.

[slonezp]

A few years back i took my neice and nephew tubing. my nephew, maybe 6 or 7 was scared to go on the tube. He had to pee. I told him to pee off the side of the boat. Wouldn't do it. "Well go on in the lake and pee". "NO! There will be pee in the water and it will get on me." so I proceeded to pee off the side of the boat to show him how it's done. My neice was on the tube and my nephew started laughing. He decided she was going to get pee on her and couldn't stop laughing. Eventualy he couldn't hold it anymore and jumped in.

My 5 year old daughter and I were swimming at our local town beach. The place was packed,and she asked me to take her to the porta potty to go pee, I told her to do it in the water. A couple minutes later, she's yelling to mommy, 50 feet away on the beach, "mommy, I'm peeing".
