“A woman who fishes is rarely average. If she does so solely to please her man, without real motivation, she’s a lost cause. At best, she will remain mediocre, and progress little with time. On the other hand, if she fishes for herself with a real passion, then she will probably be extremely good. To persevere in this predominantly macho sport where women are at best tolerated, necessitates an approach & motivation which permits her to progress above the level of the normal fisherman”.

Proudly married to the woman in question, can I point out that she actually hails from Belfast (Northern Ireland)& has been living in Southern Ireland for the last 11 years. Couldn’t let Scotland claim the credit for her!

Hello, Ian. Yes, I apologize for that. I actually saw that but, went off course. So sorry! But, yes, Belfast it is. Thank you for responding. I am certain you are quite proud and blessed.
