I thought everyone did. I talk to the vex, rods, reels, bait, etc. It never seems to be in a positive way though. Always calling myself a dips$*t or something like that. Or better yet blaming the equipment or bait for the lack of production or miscues. Surely I can't be the only one that yells at the bait to catch a d**n fish when I put it back down the hole.
Last time out I realized that when I fish alone, I barely can get a word in edgewise - well maybe not that bad - but I realized that I do talk to myself, and the fish on the vex or cam alot. I am a heckuva listener tho too, so it works out OK. Not normally a self-talker. How about you guys? - pay attention next time I bet you will be suprised.
Now that u bring it up i have found myself promising the bait if it catches me a big fish and survives i will let it go
