Cher's fishing adventures can be counted on ONE FINGER! And it was not with her father, from whom she inherited her lack of fishing interest! It was with her maternal grandfather. He was a carpenter by trade, and in addition to the house that her mother still lives in, he also created his own fishing boat. My wife decided one summer that she would like to go fishing with him. But her idea of going fishing was to take along the transistor radio (remember those?) and crank the music up loud! As you can imagine, that trip didn't go too well! Her grandfather claimed the music would scare away the fish ~ and Cher was adamant that it would attract them! Needless to say, my wife lost that battle, and lived through one of the most boring afternoons in her memory! Luckily, she has tons more joyous memories of times with her grandfather!
