She asks why my room is messy? Consolidating residence.

[Shawn Seeger]

So, we are in the process of consolidating residence. And my wife asked "Why is your room always so messy?"... I told her I liked it that way...

Really it was just to hide the rod and pole totals (behind doors and cloths), it might be a problem when I get them all together in the new room. Might have to hide stuff in the attic. I know I am not alone...

I hide mine in plain sight......not sure if it’s good or bad but what the hay??

You should be fine! It's easy to justify that many. What might be a litt hard to explain is why a couple of them look unused. Best get that cork dirty.

At least you get a room. After 25 years in a 900sf home I'm relegated to the stairs to the attic. I don't think my wife pays enough attention to notice anymore.

"To you it's a mess, to me it's a wilderness of free association."

Bonus point if you know where that line comes from

 

[Buzzy]

I have four places where I have rods - none of them stashed, they're visible. I have a couple spinning rods I haven't used in years, why do they take up space? For that matter, I have a use only one time spey rod that I don't know when it will get strung up unless I head to the OP where, as we all know, there are no crowded rivers. So I have to ask myself, whey in the hell was I looking at rod kits this morning? (I was thinking about building a 12 wt glass (out of stock, out of stock, out of stock) and hooking up with some of you tuna guys). ;-)

This is why I'm building a big ass shed

Being an inveterate, curmudgeonly bachelor, inflatables can be found in 2 rooms, rods in 2 rooms and my dog is good with that.

Here’s part of my bamboo rod racks/tying area in our living room! More bamboo in the corner of our dining room.....so far. Not mention all the Frankenrod parts in the shop....

These were temporarily herded up beginning of summer, but have since spread themselves back out around the garage.
Husband's only comment was that he liked how I attached the racks to the sides of the old dresser*. Smart man

*those only hold 6 per side, thus the spread. Or that's my story, anyway

Well it justifies a means

I'm pleased to see that it appears none of you are afflicted with having too many rods. I recently thought about taking photos of my rod and reel inventory, like for insurance purposes if it ever came to that. But my camera's sim card ran out of memory, so I'm putting it off until a later date. I do want to do it however, partly so Mrs. Salmo knows what she has in her nest egg when I kick the bucket.

 

[Porter2]

I think you all have a serious problem!!!!!

Not me. It’s a innocent hobby

 

[Porter2]

And yes I still play with the Brio wooden train track and cars

 

[Hobbyranch]

Wow, I’m going to keep this thread forever, suspect it could come in handy the next time I get asked why I have so much fishing stuff.

By looking at the pictures, I swear that some of you guys snuck into my basement.
Just a glimpse.
