The Law

Under old moral statutes, married women were legally forbidden from enjoying a solo fishing trip on the Lord's Day. Unmarried women were supposedly exempt, allowing them to legally cast a line. This was likely an antiquated attempt to force families to attend church together rather than hitting the river.
