When men gather to fish, conversations often revolve around sports, life’s interests, or their wives. For four married friends, a fishing trip became an opportunity to share their experiences and the lengths they went to secure a day off.
As they cast their lines, the discussion turned to the “honey-do” lists they had to tackle before being allowed to leave. Each man shared his story, with one having to paint every room in the house, another promising to build a deck for the pool, and the third committing to a kitchen remodel.
However, one member of the group remained quiet, prompting curiosity from the others. When asked about his experience, he revealed a clever tactic. Instead of making grand promises, he simply set his alarm, nudged his wife, and presented her with a choice: “Fishing or sex?” Her response, “Wear a sweater,” left the group in stitches, and the fourth man appeared to have outsmarted his friends.
