For 28 years my wife and I have done everything together, Hunt, fish, shop, you name it. I cannot imagine her not being by my side.
Interesting to see your post...I'm a newbie! Been a few times and I am hooked! I am a new member to this site as well & enjoying all this info you all have been posting! To respond to your post (based on my experience) ... Patience! I have a great boyfriend that has the patience of teaching me, giving me tricks & tips without making me feel inadequate. For myself I wanted to ice fish for years and for all of us ladies who want to try something new that typically is a male generated sport its pretty empowering for us to say the least to know we can fish with the best of them especially when we hook onto an awesome fish. Give her encouragement and keep her warm! And be proud of her even if she doesn't catch anything cause if ya want her to come back fishing with you....you gotta let her know! Once again, great topic and wish you luck on getting her hooked!
My wife is my best icefishing partner. We have a hub for her to sit in. SHe has a quad chair to sit on, a mr. buddy heater, her ipod and magazine. We also bring a 5 gal. bucket for her to use for bathroom facility. She has her own icefishing suit too. Keep her warm, comfortable and happy and she'll enjoy coming out fishing with you. P.S. we also go out to dinner at a different restraunt after each icefishing trip. That makes her happy too.
my wife loves to go, but since we haven't got a shelter(yet) she only goes when the weather is decent=unlike this afternoon when the weather turned to crap on us =
