I can't recommend an ocean reel, but your wife's comments reminded me of my favorite gun store story...
One regular visitor would handle and talk eagerly about the display guns, but never bought one. Then one Saturday he came in with a Cheshire cat grin and said, "I'll take that rifle, that shotgun, and that revolver." We were, of course, gobsmacked. What changed, we asked.
"It's like this," he chuckled, "For years my wife said 'You don't need another gun; you had a gun when we got married.' And that was that. Until yesterday. She went shopping and while she was gone, I took all the clothes out of her closet and hid them. Then I hung up her wedding dress. When she got home, she had a fit, and I said 'You had a dress when we got married.' And so here I am."
