hehe you got her hooked. My Wife loves to fish but shes scared of the boat but we go and fish the crappie house and all and we really enjoy it.
Well I am happy to say that after 7 great years of marriage my wife finally caught the fishing bug from me yesterday. I took her out Bass fishing last night and had her casting a ribbon tail worm up in the grass which which dropped off to about 8 feet of water. I was helping our 2 1/2 year old with his Scoobie Doo fishing pole when from behind me I hear. "babe... Babe....BABE" hahaha I turn around thinking there was a snake coming towards us to find out she's playing about a 2 lb bass. About 1/2 hour later while I'm trying my hardest not to be outfished and listening to her brag about catching a fish before me the back of the boat goes silent. I turn around and he's done it again, the days tally was her 2 and me ZERO. So now she is calling everyone in the family bragging about our fishing trip. And with a tear in my eye I knew she caught the bug today when she asked me "Honey when can we go fishing again?" :D

Bet that if you take her crappie fishin', she'd really put a whuppin' on you. :D Good job!
Did that to my wife with stripers. I could not crappie fish for a month after that. Got to go fishing a lot more than normal then though. Enjoy it. CF

I have been married for over 30 years and my wife went with me to her sis's pond (1st time she has fished) and out fished me with red ears. So I figured I would take her to the lake and we would skip piers for crappie. Well crappie were not hitting so we went for gills and she did it again! It is great to see her having fun with me. Oh yeh she did tell every one she has out fished me twice! LOL

Well we are going out tonight for Crappie to fill the freezer. I usually only keep half a dozen but like most of everyones lakes my freezer went bone dry for Crappie. It's been about two months sinse I've tasted one and I'm starting to get that withdrawl twitch really bad. I talked to two different couples who caught over 60 last night so when I told the misses about it she got that look in her eye and I knew she was up for it. Now if I can only get her to take her own fish off the hook.
Went out last night and caught around 60, of which only seven made the 9 in limit. The bugs were to bad so I had to take the wife and little one home early. I went back out and thats when I caught most of the fish. I was using my thermocell and it just wasnt keeping the bugs away. The bugs werent biting but they were flying all over us, in our ears up our nose just thousands of them. We fished off the dock where the lights were so next time I think we will take the boat and go out into the lake and keep our light signature above water down but still use the dock light to attract the minnows.
