You know you are addicted when you and the wife plan a fantastic holiday to Tonga to snorkel with the Whales and you show the missus some great resorts to stay at and she decides you will see one whale and then spend the entire time on the beach fishing after your hotel selection mentiions great GT fishing from the beach just a short walk away .....So she cancels the whole idea   :(

And this from the woman who allowed a holiday to New Cal as she hadnt been before and committed to a 4 day liveaboard on LPB !!!

Then someone says - hey lets try fly fishing for bill fish ..... and you reply, hey i have the gear for that......

You've trained your 4 year old son so well that he announces 'GT my favourite! He would fight hard' when you get to the tank with the GT in it at Sydney Aquarium....

When you're thinking of getting a lure maker to built a custom made popper "urn" so that when you go, you can get your loved ones to put your ashes in it and get your buddies to cast it in some GT infested waters. Morbid.....but addicted nonetheless.
