Fishing Myths
These are just some fishing myths or superstitions that i've heard people tell me (and no i am not making these up, ppl actually told me this stupid stuff):
It is bad luck to catch a clam.
It is bad luck to fish with a woman in the boat.
It is good luck to catch a starfish.
It is bad luck to catch a fish on your first cast because you will not catch anything for the rest of the day.
It is good karma to let your first keeper bass of the season go free.
this is all i can think of off the top of my head anyone hear of anymore?

Re: Fishing Myths
My grandfather used to use this one as an excuse to not take me fishing...
"It looks like it's going to rain, and those fish, they don't like getting wet."
"It looks like it's going to rain, and those fish, they don't like getting wet."
It's all fun and games till someone loses an eye....
then it's just a game called find the eye.

Dreaming the dream that one day I can be as good as some of the boatless pros and catch some 12 inch mangrove snapper.

Re: Fishing Myths
Its good luck to eat bananas during fishing trips. Great source of potassium.
The Judge asked the prostitute, "At what point did you realize you were raped?"
The prostitute replied (wiping away tears), "When the check bounced."

The bet is, u take the banana on a boat and take a picture with it....but I won't be going on a boat with u and a banana after. Make sense?
If you dare me to do it I want money. Going on the boat is not cheap.

Re: Fishing Myths
I think you have me confused with someone else. The only time I fished on a boat is when I'm in the Dry Tortugas.TheFishRCallin wrote:bolo wrote:

dont u go on boats all the time? just ask to stand in one for 2 seconds, hold up a banana and have someone take a picture...so ur giving in on the bet?
Taking a picture of me on the boat with a banana and then walk off is bs. The effect would be better if I fish on the boat while eating banana. The only way I'll do this is you back it up with money.

Re: Fishing Myths
Vanesssa, you have Dagon on your side. Bananas are not bad luck it's stupid superstition crap. Cudaman and I always eat the banana and always done well. People use the banana as an excuse for being a crappy fisherman. No one will throw me off the boat. I will burn the boat down before that ever happens.
