Do any of you guys out there get into trouble with the wife for preparing bait in the kitchen? Or is it just the smell they dont like?

Mine wont go as far as letting me keep maggots in the fridge, I did get away with putting casters in there until my father in law told her they turn into 10 maggots each and she believed him!

Thankfully I don't live with the missus yet! But my housemates aren't too bad! We've got a designated beer fridge in the kitchen which the lads dont mind if I keep my bait in, as long as it has a lid on it. They dont ming me cooking hemp or liquidising bread either. I've yet to try Clint Elliots way of putting lobbies through the mincer. Can't see them being overly pleased with that...

They're quite good generaly actually, as theres usually a tray of rigs, or hooklengths knocking around the living room, wet nets in the garden etc lol

Although maybe it's because I'm bigger than them...

My wife hated the smell of hemp cooking, the garage full of flies, the occasional bag of casters in the fridge,and the bedroom full of tackle, so something had to change...........I miss the old girl sometimes

My cordless drill bit the dust so my wife suggested I try her food mixer for mixing groundbait. She stood and watched me do 2 mixes whilst sat on the kitchen floor.
