I've heard you sing, mod, and it might explain those times you are fishing alone and not getting any bites. Not sure, just saying.

Ha, I don’t sing to my lures, but when I’m fishing with my oldest boy 15yrs it’s always a competition, so after I catch a fish and if he hasn’t yet, then I start singing about how awesome I am, or what great fishermen I am, I’ll sing oh where, oh where is Brandon’s fish. He just smiles but I can tell sometimes he wants to throw me over board…..LOL

After practicing all day for a tournament without catching anything I am prone to say, "Well, I eliminated a lot of water today."

I have either heard these or spoken them over the years

"Where are my pliers"

"My trailers gone"

"He's off"

"A swing and a miss"

"Ouch"

"You've cast across my line"

"didn't see that tree branch sticking out over the water"

"Watch out for stumps in the water so we don't hit one with the boat"

"I told you to watch out for stumps in the water"

not sure if this one has been said but i say it to my buddy after he misses a bunch of bites "hey are you sure you put hooks on that thing?' another one i say often when fishing with people that dont put much time in on the water is that "its not the size of the bait, its the angle of the dangle"

SON! Did you see that cast? Peyton Manning throw bro, Peyton Manning throw

Then I follow it up with an ESPN tune.... Da Na Na.... Da Na Na

"Man you got a fat sack!"

That one gets some strange looks from the wife.

Ever thought about the things no self respecting basser would ever say? I will start. "Man I wish this boat was a bit slower." "No thanks, I don't need another rod/reel/lureggadget." "I am not going fishing this weekend. I am taking my signifcant other shopping at that new mall."

I cant figure out why there not biting.

Posted

"If you think that was big, then you shoulda seen the one I lost."

Lets see...general terms...

hawg, toad, monster, bing one, slaunch, lunker, hog, basically everything but the word bass, and my personal favorite, "kraken" 

Posted

 "Get the net this thing is a monster"---- turns out to be a 2 lber

 

"Man that could have been a record"----a nice fish breaks the line.

 

"Cant catch them if your lure isn't in the water"

 

 When I run into other fisherman on the water the conversation is always very similar.

 

" Hows the fishing ?"

 

"slow"

 

"Are you getting any"

 

"a few nothing huge." (huge to me is over 7 or 8 lbs)

 

"what are you using ?"

 

"A lure"

 

"Oh yeah. Just got it at walmart. Its called a spinner." ---- As I toss out a jig or crankbait....

 

On occasion I do give out helpful info to people fishing with kids, haven't caught anything all day or if they seem to be polite. Generally though most people are fishing for information.

When I get bit I like to say, "Think I got snagged on a fish face." and "Cue the banjo!"

When i'm fishing with my friend and its time to head home...

 

Friend : I think its time to call it a day.... bite's dead for the night.

Me : Wait, let me take another cast.

 

5 minutes later

Friend : Ok, nothing's happening we gotta go now.

Me : Ugh! We each get three more casts okay?!

Friend : Ha, fine.

1 cast later

Me: Okay, so if you catch a fish, any fish, you get an extra cast!

Friend : *laughs*

2 casts later

Friend : Okay three casts are over, time to go!

Me : Let me reel this in.... *reels slowly*

1 minute later

Friend : Ok, we had a productive day, got some nice fish, but i'm worn out.

*Friend begins to pack up tackle box*

Me : Just give me one more cast for good luck... *quickly takes another cast*

Friend : ugh c'mon man

Me : Hold on, you never know if the fish is gonna take it or not....

1 minute later

Me : Okay, i'm done :(

Friend : Let's go

*We start to walk away from the pond*

*I quickly take another cast*

Friend : Come on! We're going!

Me : I need to catch something before i leeeave!

Friend : We've fished this spot all day, the bass need a rest!

Me : .. I think i just felt a bite! 

*Lets lure sit out in water*

30 seconds later

Friend : Ok it wasnt a fish, just a snag or something...

Me : Okay, i'm leaving now lets go....

"Man, it was a tough bite out there today..."

 

I think I say this when I placed not so well and also won tournaments.

Posted

Me and my buddy are always trying to one up each other, so when we hook up its like, " Ooooh man I think its two ton Tessy! Aww yea she is big, no man dont run over here its just another dink".

Posted

I would most likely get banned if I were to quote my boat phrases...however I do have one G rated one

" you can't tell me there isn't a fish in there...ya can't!" And even with that one I usually weave some of my favorite four letter words into lol

Posted

Ya GOTTA be kidding me... 

 

Very versatile, good for backlash, spooking fish, missing hooksets, casts that land in a tree, etc... 

Posted

My other famous one.

If a fish is lost without being seen it is always a dunk...even if she takes 50yrs of drag in .5 seconds and has your rod on the cusp of fracture!. If I didn't see it she was a dink!

Posted

When not catching fish in an area " it sure looks fishey here"

When not catching fish in an area " where the heck did they all go?"

When fishing with my brother " man you and those dinks are on a first name basis"

"THERE she is!.......There she isn't"

 

"Should've been here yesterday" was a saltwater cliche from the 70s.

 

When I miss 2 or more bass, I'll tell my wife, "They're really not feeding today" :rolleyes7:
