B@ssmaster Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Crew of 7 or 8 buddies going out on the water early morning to find a campsite in the BWCA. Lake is absolutely glass flat. Sun is beating down on us, starting to get hot. The last of the fog is burning off the water. Just a gorgeous morning! One of the guys grew up in the area, and we had spent the night before visiting with one of his relatives, a local beverage distributor. Actually, we spent most of the night sitting in his relative's cooler in the warehouse drinking cans from broken cases, was a late night. Plan was to get up early to hit the water, so we didn’t get a ton of sleep. So anyway, back to the boat. Both boats were playing hopscotch down the lakeshore looking for an unoccupied campsite. One of the guys is starting to look a little green around the gills. After a while, he can't hold it back any longer, he starts chumming over the side of the boat. The rest of us in his boat being the compassionate guys we are began laughing our butts off. One of the guys in the other boat sees what is going on and yells sarcastically "what's the matter Jim?" Jim doesn't even miss a beat and between heaves yells back: "the water is too rough today!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeff042479 Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 While half way through a set of rapids in Canada, younger brother in the front of the boat watching for rocks and giving directions, older brother driving his boat. Little brother "Left.... No Right... No... AAAHHH F#$@ It!" as he sits down and the motor hits a rockAt a resort in Canada, we were on some nice walleyes all week. We meet a couple from Iowa who was struggling to get enough walleyes to eat so we offered to let them follow us. About 15 minutes into it, dad catches a 25" walleye, holds it up to show everybody, and releases it. The guy from Iowa says with disbelief "Now why in Gods name would you let a nice fish like that go?" Little brother (about 12 at the time) says "because these are walleyes, they don't reproduce as fast as the bullheads you have in Iowa!" Guy from Iowa didn't know whether to be insulted or laugh with the rest of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishermn Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Thats got to be one of the funniest things I have ever heard! Seriously though... I sure hope the rest of the country is catching onto the principle of "Let em Go... Let em Grow!" No need to keep nice fish anymore with the quality of replicas they can make now!

genegodawa Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I forget how it goes exactly, but something like:"When it's cloudy, fish shallow and when it's sunny fish deeper. And if that don't work, do the opposite"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of the Line Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 So the lottery was over $150 million a few weeks ago and on my charter boat I say to my customers: "Boys next year were gonna have a brand new boat if I win the lottery." Just then my first mate (who is quite the character) say. "Dont have to worry about that, cause I bought the winnning lottery ticket this morning; and I told the wife when I win pack your bags! And she says: Warm or cold? Then I told her "NO,... PACK YOUR BAGS!" My customers and I laughed for an hour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Bass Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 For as long as I can remember when ever I am top water fishing and I see the bulge in the water heading for my lure I start humming the theme from Jaws out loud. It is a lot easier that trying to say here comes one or look at this. I just hum the theme the bigger the bulge the louder the humm. Friends I fish with know what to expect and then look for my lure. Some of them have even picked up the habit! Not a quote but I think it fits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stizo Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 When we're out and the water gets rough my good buddy Jim starts humming the tune from Gordon Lightfoots song "Wreck of the Edmund Fitgerald". When the waves top 3 footers he starts singing the lyrics (knows em all)and sings like a pirate would...Arrrrghhhh the captain wired in he had water comin in and the good ship and crew was in peril aaaaarrrrrrgghhhhha and saying stuff like Would your GPS have coordinates for Whitefish Bay laddy?? or Where is our last string of crab pots or does the coast guard have a station nearby? do they maintain thier helicopters? Will they save a drunken Russian who sings badly? How many watertight bulkheads do they put in Lunds these days? I never got to say goodbye to my wife and kids...Oh wait...I dont have a wife and kids...and on and on.Pretty funny stuff...Jimmy's a stich and he can get ya laughing so hard your sides will ache.Stizo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kunk Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 One day my buddy and I go ice fishing to a fairly crowded lake and find a nice spot by ourselves and get set up. No sooner do we sit down on our buckets than two guys cruise up and pull out their gas auger and start drilling holes about fifteen feet away. My buddy is watching them the whole time and when they finally shut the thing off he slowly turns around to me with this disgusted look on his face and says, "I think I'm going to go over and look that guy straight in the eye and pick my nose and eat it in front of him. Maybe he'll go away". I about fell off my bucket. This one a hunting story. Years back on our first bear hunting trip we had a guy along who it turned out was terrified of bears and being in an area that had bears in it. He was the best armed among us having a rifle plus a .357 mag on his belt plus a 10" inch knife on the other side. He thought we should whistle every once in a while to make sure we were all OK. After the first day he didn't care for being in the dense woods, so on the way out the next day he says, "I think we should all hunt in the clearing just off the road. Bears like clearings you know". We just about went off the road, the rest of us were laughing so hard. So now it's bears like clearings, and fish like the calm water (where it's more comfortable) every time we go out.

Fishook Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 When someone in our group catches a small walleye the poke is either a) "thats a cute one" or "geesh, it still has the egg sack attached". Also, I fish with the original Walleye King and every year when he gets his first eye, he starts singing " the King is back and your gonna be sorry" (to the tune 'My Boyfriends Back and Your Gonna Be Sorry - hey la, he la, my boyfriends back')--guess you have to be there!!

love to hunt Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Not fishing but in the spirit: 3 deer seasons ago I had a doe come through and as she passed behind some brush I readied my gun. When she emerged from the other side I squeezed the trigger and down she went. After a very short recovery it was revieled that the doe had a fawn with her and happened to step out first, thinking it was the same deer through the scope and at dusk I had tapped it. My brother, who I was sure would have something to say and in true form did not let me down stated, "Did you have to wipe the milk of it's chin?"
