Superstions?

[bass or bass ?]

I skip a coin across the surface of the water before my first cast.

It has cost me a couple of fish but I will not allow the net out of the box till the first fish is hooked. After that I will leave it out. There is probably nothing to it but it seems every time I get it out before that the fish won't bite. I also usually try to make my first cast where I think there is no chance of getting bit. We all have our quirks I guess.

Tournament days I pretend to be a gladiator and pick up a handful of sand and let it run between my fingers.  ;D

I have one blue shirt I have worn and won 4 tournaments, placed 2 in 3, and 3rd in 3, only time I haven't worn it I didn't place, so that is mine, my lucky blue shirt.

i always get blazed before i fish. maybe thats more of a habit than a superstition though.

[Beastie Bass]

I keep a heddon river runt from my fathers tackle box with me all the time. My dad gave me that lure when I was 12 and I dont go fishin without it! I took it out for a week once, I'll never do that again!

No bananas.

Never say you are gonna catch alot of fish.

Palomar loops always around the back of the hook.

Never fill the live well with water till I get my first keeper.

when we go to my buddies cabin we cross the mississippi, every time we do we throw a handfull of pennies into it as we go over the bridge, if we miss the river or forget the fishing is really slow.

Nope, no superstitions at all.  I do for other things, but not fishing.  Even bananas in the boat don't bother me.

[Gangley]

I have three shirts that i generally wear, all similar but a different color for each. 

Also, once i get the boat out on the water, I will sit for a minute and just look around.  I won't cast until i have had sufficent time to look around me and relax for a minute.  Kinda like letting everything inside of me get loose and relaxed.  I might just thumb through my baits and look at them for a minute or so, or check out the trees, etc.  For some reason I think that if I'm relaxed, then the bass will be relaxed as well, haha.

I have a lucky wore out faded adidas wristband on my right wrist any time i fish.  doesnt really help or anything but i have worn it for years playing paintball and it brought me luck then so i thought it would help with fishing.  Only bad thing is the obnoxious tan line.

[Big Fish Rice]

Always, always, always, release the fish gently and respectfully.

(I hate seeing people toss or drop them back into the water)

[quantumtrue]

for some reason I always have just a little piece of fishing line in  my mouth to chew on stupid I know but have to do it

When i start topwater poppin, or walkin the dog, I throw out my lure and let it rest while i light a smoke. Gives it just enuf time for the ripples to fade away, then start poppin.

I always tuck me shoe laces into my shoes but they have to face each other. It's carried over from playing sports.

I've had them surgically removed.
