Oh man, you got it bad....Everyone needs time away from their spouse, the time away only strengthens the relationship I believe. But come on, divorce papers if you want to fish a Tournament!!!! But some wives who watch the money expenditures for the family, are just trying to keep the family above water so to speak and the excess fishing expenses could drain the account somewhat....

Maybe closer to home fishing trips could help solve the problem a little bit, or getting a fishing buddy to help with half the expenses for you both to go together....Then the expenses might not be that bad in her eyes.... Just a thought or two, maybe something else will pop up and help you out.
