I was given mine 35 years ago as a freshman tackle the by the football coach. It has stuck with me ever since. I think it had to do with my size and a comic strip at that time. God knows that he wasn't going to call me hands. Lottie

I got named the eyedoktr about 20 years ago. It was a takeoff on Bass Professor (Doug Hannon). walleye professor just didn't sound right. It came from my endless pursuit of the wiley walleye. 200 plus days a year and a full time job. You guessed it, no wife either.

snazi · « **Reply #39 on:** Mar 20, 2003, 10:32 PM »

YEARS ago when I first got the internet I was trying to make a hot mailbox email account and watch Mystery Science Theater at the same time. I tried variations of my real name and other things and got really frustrated after 2 hours of 'username already registered'. The movie I was watching was 'Surf Nazis Must Die'. I ended up using Surf Nazi which ended up snazi after some sites wouldn't let me use the whole handle. I get attacked by hebrews alot because they think I'm a nazi-LOL!!! In real life I raise ducks on my farm and live 15 minutes from the bay. I'm a chest freezer man. If I don't have a freezer full of venison, perch, salmon and duck by spring the year has been a flop. I'm looking forward to the sucker run now. Smoke em slow & cold and they beat herring, salmon, whitefish, etc...

When your last name is Carpenter, everyone just seems to call ya Carp. Been called Carp as long as I can remember, and I sort of take pride in the nickname.

RSQCAL · « **Reply #41 on:** Mar 21, 2003, 07:05 AM »

I've worked on various rescue squads for about 17 yrs. About 10 yrs ago I was laided off for the winter so I was pulling alot of daytime call time for our unit. Rather then waiting around for a call, I would spend my time jigging at a lake about 2 miles from the squad building. When a call would come across the pager I'd grab my stuff and run to the car and head out. One day one of the regulars finally asked me why I would just out of the blue grab my stuff and run to the car and leave (they were starting to think I was kind of strange!) They started calling me Rescue Cal (Cal being my first name). The name stuck!!

FishDeepCreek · « **Reply #42 on:** Mar 21, 2003, 08:44 AM »

Mine comes from where I live and fish. I live up in the Deep Creek Lake area, in Maryland. It is now my home lake, and favorite lake to fish!

I tend to eat like one , alot.
I wish I could catch fish one.

THETROLL · « **Reply #48 on:** Mar 21, 2003, 05:15 PM »

Wellll, it's like this. I'm ALWAYS snagged on the bottom of the lake while fishing. Friends told me I mastered the art of being snagged. Hence, the name snagmaster.

one_mo_fish · « **Reply #49 on:** Mar 21, 2003, 05:42 PM »

Well, it goes like this. My nickname is Mo and I used to call my friend, Nick, and his son would answer. His son was two or three years old and he knew my voice and he knew I fished, and he knew why I calling his dad. He would say, "Mo fish?" and I'd say, "yeah, what about your dad?". So I put it on my license plate and it sounded better 1mofish so it would fit on the license plate. But there's a caveat to that, so many times, at the end of the day, trying to get our limit, if somebody would say 1mofish, well you can only guess what happened! Good catching!

trapperdirk · « **Reply #50 on:** Mar 21, 2003, 08:44 PM »

Well its like this.I get alot of calls to trap nuisance animals and the customers when they see me coming always call me Trapper or Trapper-Dirk.Dirk being my first name. Way I look at it, call me anything but late for dinner. :-/

Smelt1 · « **Reply #56 on:** Mar 23, 2003, 04:59 AM »

Smelt1, I use this name because we icefish alot for salt water smelt. After comming home from along day of fishing the "BOSS" would say,"Boy do you smell" hense the name Smelt1. My mustang GT convertable also has the same plate. Also when my two boys were young I would say to them,"I can smell them fish". They would tell thier mother,"Daddy Smelt1".She would allways correct them."No boys, its daddy smells like one".
