My guess is that it means to capture one, in the figurative sense. Rather primative.

Hi,

Are you sure you don't mean the phrase' to take a wife'?

This means 'to get married to a woman'.

There isn’t an awful lot of hits on Google for the phrase, and all seem to be from an exchange or site related to Pakistani or Indian people. Apparently, the phrase is found (almost) always as part of a joke circulating the Internet, which you can find here:

I couldn't make much out of that site.

Of course jokes often use the double entendre, so we're not limited to a single meaning.

"To tackle a problem" is a very common non-physical usage.

How would you tackle a wife who does X?

The reply could be a physical solution.
