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. 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. LOL!!!! I like that a lot. To answer No No No. Kind of like it that way though. Give me a fish, I will eat for a day. Teach me to fish, I will eat for a lifetime

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.

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? Proudly banned from the NTA. Bother me tomorrow. Today I'll buy no sorrows.

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.

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.

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. Moosetrot
