Super User SirSnookalot Posted February 2, 2014 Super User Posted February 2, 2014 You know you are a fisherman when you take a pen knife to a gunfight. 2 days I see a school of tarpon swimming thru the inlet as I'm on the jettie, must have been a dozen and nothing smaller than a 100 lb. Having a med spinning rod and knowing that if I did hook one I'd either be spooled or ruin my fishing gear. 200 yds of 15# braid is like using sewing thread, don't think for second I was deterred. My plan was simple, hook it and maybe turn it around the jettie to the beach side, then jump over the railing and wade to shore ( I've done it before), once on the beach my odds would have increased to maybe a 1000-1, in favor of the fish of course. Equipment can be replaced, but a thrill...............never. 1 Quote

coryn h. fishowl Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 when you test out lures in the bath tub because its too cold to go fishing HaHa, I just graduated from that...My school has a 300 galllon aquarium with no fish in it yet, but it is chock full of driftwood, boulders, and lilypads... When you think that your coffee smells a lot like your rage tail lures and not the other way around. When the smell of powerbait is good to you. When you watch bass fishing on tv from the sofa, while pitching and flipping with an ultra light rod and jig head into a garbage can When you've reached the daily maximum of allowed likes on a site called bass resource reading a forum called "You know you're a fisherman when.." 2 Quote

coryn h. fishowl Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 I've even made a game. If no one is home, turn on bass fishing, and toss some sock around the living room. Take a jig head with a dull hook and pitch/flip to "catch" the socks. As you can see, cabin fever is going strong here in cook county IL. 1 Quote

coots Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 When you're walking through the store and you think to yourself... I could pitch a jig into that empty spot on that shelf. I could skip a jig under that bottom shelf... and you know there's a bucketmouth in there... it's just to sweet of a spot. I could pitch a jig up over and around this display.... land it in the empty mop bucket.... no problems. If I maintain this amount of space between all the aisles... I can flip my jig all day.... no problems. Anybody got a jig? Quote

Pz3 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 -When your ringtone is the ambient noise of being on the lake. -The smell of softplastics is an afrodisiac -When no pole is available you still stop at lakefronts -You can smell fish underwater -You watch water/birds of prey to see where the baitfish are -You start eating what your favorite fish eats. -You walk your dog and just jerk him around like a jerk bait. -You play with your pet cat and think of him as a small bass. -You daydream all day at work about fishing. and my personal favorite because its true.... A US Army guy (me) before deploying for my first time. Being shot at killed or whatever.. who cares.... All I could think about was if there were any lakes or rivers to fish there. What a major let down that entire year was! 1 Quote
The Rooster Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 When you actually get married at the marina on the lake you fish at, in late October, with an early season snow flurry already in the air, and it's dark outside, and during the ceremony you are still thinking about the fishing that you could be doing just a few feet away and wondering if the bite would be any good. True story. My new wife was agreeable to it also. I was actually regretting not bringing a rod to get in a few casts when we did it. 2 Quote
coryn h. fishowl Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Very Good. Some real Classics right there. What if you have a Skin mount IN your wedding Photo ? A-Jay and Jeff Foxworthy decreed, "If you have a mounted bass in your wedding photo....yoooouuuu might be a redneck." 1 Quote
