Mine does all of it with me. Also does a fair amount of skinning and butchering for me when I'm at work.

when she was alive , she would fish , we were fishing until less than a month before she passed.

on occasion she would drive while chasing ditch chickens but the range was as far as she ever made it with a gun , she did have a sense of humor and would shoot the groin out of targets to make people uncomfortable. you teach them to hit what they are aiming at and you create a comedian with a mean sense of humor. I mean not that the pelvic girdle is a bad place to shoot , people find it hard to stand on a broken pelvis and a vest seldom covers it.

trapping, she would sometimes ride with but not get out of the truck.

she would help package venison

roll with what works , she would read or knit she could do that for hours , good thing cause then she was happy to sit in the truck while I might get caught up talking hunting , guns or trapping with someone.

My Babe has checked beaver traps (once )...and I showed her where the trap

Was....but it was gone...so I told her where the tie off cable was..

And she hauled in the catch ...all excited !! But it was one and done.

No hunting..but loves to shoot her K22 Masterpiece

But many times trolling for trout...and out catching me

I thought that was a dream at one time then the wife gets all competitive so that taints the pool pretty quickly then she complained about opening gates so it all went south she moves kind of slow anyways. Lots of downfalls with bringing the wife with trapping she would bail out to be the first to check my sets I had to start tripping her to get around her to be first to the sets, it’s a struggle. whistle

Then she took up archery shot 2 deer that year and the expert was born then it became who’s going to what stand so relaxing was now optional.

She fishes way more than I do with me trapping 7 months out of the year and always on skunk duty I need some home maintenance time and boiler wood duties in the other 5 months.

Every days the same with something to do no real weekends in the mix. They ask at the Doctors office if I know what day it is, I said lady I don’t know what month it is most of the time.

Mine loves to fish summer and winter.

One time I talked her into going deer hunting with me. She shot a nice 8pt and cried for 3 days. I never asked her to go again.

Mine was ruined with trapping, caught a coyote while she was pregnant she wanted to ride along at that time my trapping ring was a Chevy tracker, stuffed it in the back and the smell and her pregnant nose did not go together. She rode with her head out the window gagging the whole way home. She has help my son when he was little check traps, because he wasn't big enough to handle a gun by himself... but that was just walking distance.

She never been into hunting, will shoot guns all day long, but will go fishing with us. But by far more of a book read and a puzzle putter together.

Just depends. Sometimes we trap together... sometimes we'd run separate lines. We almost always fish together if we go fishing. Hunting, again, depends... deer hunting is solo... if we were going dove hunting or something it would be together.

Does your husband trap with you WI?

Not at all and has no interest in hunting fishing or trapping herself

She supports me and loves that I do all three. She eats all wild game and prefers it over domesticated meat. She wears fur proudly and tells people about it.

This is fine by me. I've always been a lone wolf in my outdoor pursuits.

Skunk smell doesn't bother her at all. Just one thing she doesn't like. Fresh caught mink in the house. She doesn't like the smell and says it lingers.

Once, once, once.

I don't go shopping for dresses and shoes with her. Well, once 50 years ago.

When we were dating in the early 70's, she went bass fishing a few times. She wore her bathing suit to get a tan, and she graded student papers. If I caught a bass on two straight casts, she would consider casting her rod.

I only recall her ever catching one largemouth. She tossed a Johnson silver minnow with a strip of pork rind into a bed of lily pads. Caught a two pound bass. Still have the photo somewhere. I think she retired then.

Wonderful Wife has done a lot of hunting with me. She has taken bear, deer, ducks, geese and a pile of turkey. Most in Wisconsin but also on some trips to Sask. She loves turkey hunting and is really good at it.

She is a heckuva fisher too. We fished all over Wisconsin, out West, Lakes Michigan and Superior, Ontario...all over the place. Two times are my favorites...watching her get pulled around a Lake in her kayak by a Muskie on her trusty ultralight and her reaching down an ice hole to pull up a Crappie so big it got caught in the hole while she was pulling it up.

She never trapped but has always encouraged me to get out an do it.

Even though she is now pretty much in a wheelchair we are plotting ways to get back out together.

She rides along if it's not too cold . She likes fishing since we get competitive, is indifferent to trapping doesn't hate it don't love it and hunting.....she like seeing the critters , like shooting , doesn't like killing .. foraging is more her favorite thing as soon as I say I'm going on a little ride or a walk she's right behind me with her collection bag

No, no, yes........ that might be the right mix as we own businesses together we get plenty of together time. Mine does not really handle the cold well either. She would probably go if I asked her, but she would be a spectator and not a participant. She does shoot her bow with me on occasion so that is cool. One of our first dates was to an archery range to shoot. Her shoulder gives her pain now so she doesnt shoot as much as she used to.

Triple yes and just about everything else we do a lot together.

When we were kids she always went hunting and fishing with me. She (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) one deer with 20g at 110 yards in the heart and that's been it. She sat with one of the boys when needed when I couldn't be in two places at once when they were small enough I they needed an adult with them. I didn't trap tell my early 20s she has checkered traps with me but never got into it. She had decided she doesn't like the cold and would rather do other things thein get up early and freeze in the woods. Cat fishing is her favorite.

No to the trapping. She used to hunt deer with me, but after she had her hip replacement it was hard for her to climb up in her deer stand. But, she's still my favorite fishing partner. Leeches, minnows, grasshoppers, worms, etc, she always baits her own hook and takes off her hooked fish. I hate to admit it, but she has out fished me many times. Cleaning fish is something we always do together.


Being old is when you don't care where your spouse goes, just a long as you don't have to go too.

No. She will occasionally run the line with me but just for company. She's watched me shoot a bunch of hogs off the hood of my pickup while doing chores at our place--but she's just there for company and getting the gates.

We are 50/50 partners. I catch it, she cleans it, she cooks it, I eat it.
