    “I’m gonna’ miss her,” by Brad Paisley. Dustin! That song sums it up.
  • @dannyadams388
    Always heard my worst fear is I will die and my wife will sell my gear for what I said I paid for it
  • @steveyates1136
    Dustin you need to man up. If she doesn't like you going fishing and buying fishing stuff you need to cut the cord now before you marry her. Because if you don't you are just going to buy her a house and end up sending her a check every month.
  • @randallmiller572
    😂 yes it’s normal! You’re not a bad guy! Keep up the great work!
  • Omg, you made me laugh so much. It seems we all go through that "faze". Do we ever come out of it? IDK!!!!
  • @rogerbird7015
    A few comments: First, you're merch is the fajizz! Second, attach your split shot above your knots for your droppers. The knots will help keep them in place when they slide. Third, for Dustin. Get your fiancé involved. It gives you the excuse to buy more!
  • Great Q&A my problem with split shot is not getting it to stay it’s getting it off , how does that work ? Don’t feel bad about having too many rods it could be worse my wife is sneaker than me . We laugh when we find new gear , “ Oh that old thing “ And yes we know we have a problem . Thanks for sharing
  • @danieltracy7136
    Visited my dentist last week and we discussed not using teeth to cut the line. Sometimes it is just easier in the moment.
  • The 90 year old owner of our local shop says.. What happens at the flyshop..stays at the flyshop! He had a story of seeing a guys wife at the grocery store and said..tell Harold his flyrod is in, she gave him a stern look and said..What flyrod? Never again! 😂. But you should tell her you’re fishing with your friends, that could cause trust issues if caught lying. Buying a rod behind her back isn’t lying. Good luck! 👍👌🎣
  • @JeremyReger
    Holy cow that Ad space with the icon... best ever... give that guy a raise.. lol 🤜🤛
  • @Cissyslit
    I picked a good one. She bought me a orvis 3D last year. She never gives me any hassle when I’m chasing hatches like a maniac all spring 😂
  • @kansasscout4322
    My last rod required some creative stealth money manipulation to pay for it. I'm quite proud of my cleverness LOL! She never knew. LOL. I really don't like it but it makes my life smoother and easier. Its not like I do it a lot. I have had some serious temptations since
  • @wahipple
    i do the same thing Dustin got 2 rods in my truck that live there behind the back seat just a tip if your ordering online like I do I get my stuff sent to the post office its way easier to sneak it in to the house then you can just hide it in trunk till she is not home works great for fly tying material just don't put the new stuff on top in your draw box or what have you under the first layer
  • @optimusfly.
    Tie a tippet ring in to your tippet where ever you want your shot to be it won't slip then plus you can also change your flies quickly aswel 👍
  • @robhaase6810
    Hey Dustin, invite her fishing sometime. Sounds like you’ve got the equipment 😂. I did that with my wife and she enjoyed the experience. She doesn’t go with me much but when she does she just watches, read’s a book and enjoys being out in nature. Good luck
  • @shaun3276
    As long as we have enough money to put food on the table and pay the bills then it doesn’t matter to my partner. 🎣
  • @kenthomas5683
    Merry Christmas. Lead under one ounce in Maine is illegal.
  • @SHH_Fishing
    Y'all Are Truly The BEST !!! Stay Motivated ! Keep It Tight ! Cpl. Hood 🦈🦈🦈
  • @quietlife4me
    Please tell me you sent Dustin a new hat and box...but addressed to "Fiance of Dustin"
