You set the hook in your sleep, waking both yourself and your partner, and then you get mad because you didn't stay asleep and dreaming long enough to net the fish...
And yes, I have done that...

You know yer a muskie fishing addict when.. you misread a post on the boards and actually consider sleeping with your fishing partner if it might increase your odds of landing a biggie.

Location: On the O | When you meet people for the first time (soccer coach, daughter's 4th grade teacher, furnace guy) they all start a conversation with you that goes a little like, "So you're the Muskie guy, I caught a big pike once..."
When the wife and kids are laying the ground work ahead of time for you to have a conversation about Muskie the addiction is obviously spilling over into the family dymamic.
Also maybe the fact you feel the need to always capitalize the word Muskie could mean something. |

Location: Minnetonka | ___You offer to be the designated driver for your family on your brother-in-law's birthday because the end of the moon major coincides with bar close. The launch is close enough to the bar, so you drop them off, fish 3 hours alone in the dark and when they thank you for the ride at the end of the night, you still feel like you pulled a fast one on them. (Saturday night)
....or because I keep an $85 cordless Dremel "multi" tool in my tackle box for the sole purpose of sharpening hooks faster.

Nope, shes a good wife and we enjoy our time together and yet enjoy our time away from each other as well to do what we please. I get to spend a lot of time on the water and enjoy spending just as much time with the wife and kids. |

| You've ever had a relationship end because she thought fishing was more important to you than her.
And when she accused you of it you said:
"Well... I ENJOY fishing! Fishing makes me HAPPY! You're just a pain in the nice try!!!"
I don't miss her one bit...
