"New Fishing Grounds - for divorce that is!" -- Ed
Three-quarters of British sport fishermen would rather go fishing than go to bed with their partners, a survey showed on Thursday.
More than half of the 1 000 anglers surveyed by bookmaker Totesport also said they would rather catch a record-breaking trout or salmon than spend a night with a supermodel.
Fishermen who took part in the poll spent, on average, eight times as much money on fishing equipment than on gifts for their partners.
"It is odds on that there are fishing widows the length and breadth of the country that can relate to these results," said Paul Petrie, a spokesperson for Totesport.
Forty-six percent of respondents also said they lied about the real size of their catch to impress their peers. -- AFP
