"There is a fine line that seperates a fisherman from a fool standing in water swinging a stick."

An angler is a man who spends rainy days sitting around on the muddy banks of rivers doing nothing because his wife won't let him do it at home.  ~Author Unknown

My biggest worry is that my wife (when I'm dead) will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it.  ~Koos Brandt

"This is where they are when they're here".  and "They're either on the top or on the bottom or somewhere in between."  I'll credit Al Lindner for those as that is where I heard them first.

Two fish are on there, bonehead. And you know damn well that I throw back what I'm not gonna eat.

Oh yeah, like that 40 pound Musky your always yapping about, it's a shame nobody ever see's you with these monsters!

son!
when chuck norris played golf for money, chuck marked down a hole in zero every time, the golf pro said, "chuck: you can't score zero on a hole." Chuck norris turned towards the man and said, "I'm chuck norris, the man proceeded to pour gas over his body and set himself on fire because that would be less painful than getting roundhouse kicked by chuck norris....chuck norris roundhouse kicked him in the face anyways

Well, after lowering the unit into the water, I like to hear "they're stacked up like cord wood!" always makes for a good start to a day!

I also love the term "going Ike". Have you ever read his book "Fishing On the Edge". I highly recommend it, its a great read, I don't think you would even have to be that into fishing to enjoy it.
I have not read it but i might have to pick it up and give it a shot, i have heard a lot of good things about it
