    I am a tournament fisherman (eg: Aust. Freshwater Masters, and ANSA Bass Comps) and a keen golfer but I tend to spend more time on my photography pursuits, so I would choose once or twice a week, I can control my urges.

    I take my gears out everyday but I only able to take pics every 2nd/3rd days.

    I also have a golf bag with me nearly everyday, as a keen golfer.

    From Monday-Friday after work, depends on the weather, commitment between myself/missus, it will be either a photo/golf practice night.

    But I really should put my time into a 2nd degree or something.... sigh....

    but, but..... Gravy can be addictive Ving. That is why I left it out. An addict on a Gravy Bender is not a pretty site.

    Ving. How can I say no to that sweet nodding head with those come to bed eyes and pink runny nostrils. Go on then, have your Gravy.
