SneakySnook Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Wanted to know how often does everyone fish. I go 3-5 days a week for 2 hours and lately when I don't go fishing I'm practicing how to pitch for 1 hour. So, do I have a problem or am I okay. Quote
paparock Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Hey, if it's contagious pass it on. We should all have such a problem;) Quote
Will Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Man, for me that would be less than normal during the spring/summer/fall months. Quote
basser89 Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 If it's a problem, it's the BEST problem to have! In my book, nope, you're just enjoying the sport!!!! Quote
pittbassfishing Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 No problem there i do bout the same fish when ever you can just for the love of fishing and to have practice in the winter time with some big bass. Have fun on the water. Quote
afroengineer Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Man, for me that would be less than normal during the spring/summer/fall months. Same Here Quote
sinker48 Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Yes you have a problem ! Cure is 7 days a week 4 hours per day. Good Luck ! Sinker 48 Quote
Captain Cali Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Nope...no problem here...unless I have a problem also. Quote
Smalliehunter48 Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 As one of our posters notes have said..."Bass fishing is an addiction passed of as a hobby!!" Last year I obsessed about it so much I wasn't even chasing my wife around for sex. She was hacked about it, too. It most definately can be an addiction. Everything in moderation you know, anything to excess can be a problem. Quote
DDbasser Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Man, and I thought I had problems!!!!!! I've been sitting in front of the TV watching KVD's video's (for the, well I lost count time) while pitching a jig to a cup in the corner of the room. Oh yeah I almost forgot, and fishing every Saturday, Sunday and sometimes in the morning before work. Oh man, I gotta get going I have a winter jackpot at 1:00 this afternoon!! NOPE, No problems here!!!!! Quote
davmac Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Sneaky, you're killin' me man.(As well as you others that fish more than that). Five times a week. UGH!! In August I bought a used Ranger...That week gas prices nearly hit $4/gal. The next week I was told I had to have hernia surgery...turned out it was TWO hernias. Doc said don't even set a hook on'em anytime soon. It's been cold and wet here in N. Carolina for weeks. Went out in my one-man boat last Monday only to get half-way across the lake and discover I had a HOLE in my boat. Now, what was your question again? And did I mention that you guys are killin' me? GREAT FISHING GUYS!! Quote
Hula_King Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 I wish I had your problem. In fact, I think everyone wants it. Although, I do tape BASS on ESPN and FLW on FSN every Saturday and Sunday mornings because I don't want to miss them when I'm out fishing. Quote
Super User Raul Posted January 28, 2006 Super User Posted January 28, 2006 If marriage or your job interfere with fishing quit them and go fishin. Quote
Super User RoLo Posted January 28, 2006 Super User Posted January 28, 2006 So...You go bass fishing 3 to 5 days a week? But that's ONLY about '200' days a year! You DO have a problem ;D Quote
FALCON Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 WELL I LIVE ON A LAKE, I'M OUT ALMOST EVERY DAY. IF FISHING IS A DISEASE I HOPE THEY NEVER FIND A CURE!!!!! Quote
preach4bass Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 If you've got a problem then most of us on this forum need to consult a physician, psychologist, or someone quick. ;D Quote

SneakySnook Posted January 28, 2006 Author Posted January 28, 2006 It doesn't interfere with the fiance because she loves to fish. She doesn't fish as much as me but she know's that fishing is how I relax. We have lakes all over at the apartment complex I live at that is why I fish so much. I walk around fishing the complex, wish I had a small boat but nothing yet. Looking to get a canoe or kayak because I also fish saltwater come April-November. If anyone saw Bass Tech today that is the kind of kayak I need. ;D Quote
Minuteman Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Your still in Denial, it gets better after you surrender and admit you have no control over it. Quote
Guest avid Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 Sounds like someone close to you is telling you that you are spending way too much on bass fishing. I think we all have been through that with girlfriends, wives, mothers, maybe even co-workers. Just remember if you have kids, take them with you on a regular basis. Quote
SneakySnook Posted January 29, 2006 Author Posted January 29, 2006 I admit it I'm hooked on fishing and bass are another great fish for me to target. Love fishing and I will never give it up. Quote
Rattletrap Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 There must be a lot of single guys on this forum. That much time on the water would stress my marriage. Sorry guys, but if I ever had to choose, I would choose my wife. Quote
DDbasser Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 Hey Rattletrap, you've got it all wrong!!!!! you just need to introduce them to the great addiction called fishing!!! ;D My wife loves to fish as much or more than I do!!! I can barely get out of the house to go fishing without her!!!! And My kids love to fish also, they've been fishing since before they could walk. Quote
Captain Cali Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 There must be a lot of single guys on this forum. That much time on the water would stress my marriage. Sorry guys, but if I ever had to choose, I would choose my wife. I'm not married but I do live with my girlfriend and it bugs her sometimes. She gets all lonely and stuff. I just tell her..."I could be going to strip clubs and stuff like a lot of other guys do". She then promptly hands me my tackle and pushes me out the door!! It works everytime!! I'm working on getting her to go fishing. She just doesn't want to be out in the cold right now so I'm hoping she goes when spring roles around. Quote
Rattletrap Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 I agree. My wife would go with many anytime I ask her. She really is not into fishing, she just likes to be where I'm at. She has a tendency to get motion sick, but only if the boat rocks a lot. You have to get your family involved. You also need to do things they like sometimes. Getting the wife involved adds up to more time on the water. Quote
