Why did you pick your user name?
« on: Mar 18, 2003, 09:08 PM »
Some people use their real name, some use something obvious, and others have a story behind it.  Tell me why you picked your user name on this board. ???

Me?  I picked my favorite overall lure for panfish, named after the Systems Tackle Techniglo Fat Boy. 8)

...it also seems to fit my stature according to my fishing buddies! >:( ;D  But not next year, this Fat Boy is going on a diet!  I don't need the extra weight when getting on new ice next year...

My name was given to me about 25 years ago by some of my ice fishing buddys because of my knack for jiggen fish through the ice. It also carried over to jig fishing for Strippers on the jettys of N.J.

About eight years ago I got Div.  later my cousin and I were working together and he told the joke of how the indian boy got his name.  You know the one about twodoggsf**king,  any how after the div I got it. and so the full name is twodoggsf**kedoverbyeveilshebear.  or twodoggs for short.  Lesson learned do not fall for eveil she bear and the old ring dang doo. ;)

I run the website for our local fishing club (check it out @ http://www.kneedeepclub.org) and saying contact the "webmaster" if you have any problems sounded lame to me so I made it Webguy and it has become my nickname in the club.

Some friends from the city were out here in the boonies of northern Alberta on one of the best walleye lakes in the northeast fishing with me.  After a "few" wobblies, and a mess of walleye and perch to clean, the comment was made that "you bushbunnies have everything up here".

I really didn't pick my name as much as it was given to me. I enjoy the outdoors and don't mind being by myself - sometimes it's a blessing ! There wasn't anyone in my family who really fished, hunted, etc.. So twenty some odd years ago when I started ice fishing, bowhunting, flyfishing, etc. I was an oddity and really didn't have anyone to enjoy the outdoors with. Friends and family started to say I was like a "lone wolf" (hence the name). I would go off into the woods in the morning with a compass and my bow and return at night hopefully with some venison. The same would go for ice fishing and fly fishing. Sorry this went on so long but that's the story.

Until recently I spent 95 percent of my driving (riding) time on my motorcycle. 12 months a year, rain, shine, snow ! Biker Mike was what the people at work called me and the tag line stuck. I use it for almost all of my internet ID's.

Perhaps when I get older and need to ride a rocking chair I'll get a Honda Goldwing trike with snow tires and then I can use a bike to carry my ice fishing gear too.
