terrible excuse! You can come with me or any of us and literally spend NOTHING to try it! you wouldn't need any of your own equipment to try it. If you liked it, it would cost you 20-40 bucks for tipups and then you can just always go with someone that has an auger and you don't even need one. couple of bucks on safety gear maybe. or you can pop one of your smaller bass reels on a short rod and jig.
as far as the wife you can do what i do... every time i buy something new and she asks about it i just tell her i won it in an online contest. she says oh nice, congrats. hahaha
