snag Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 (edited) Hey Y'all, I'm a loser. It's rather frustrating. I would have more to show if I used a net but I don't like to use them. Being a shore angler, I don't need the extra weight. No excuses here. I lose a chunk of catches in high elevation areas and poor hook-ups that get off as I attempt to hand-land them. I have accepted being a loser for the comfort of less accessories. Luckily, marriage has conditioned me to accept crushing disappointment on a semi-regular basis. These catches were had on the way to work, lunch and homebound. I don't fish on weekends. They are from last week and a bit, (as you'll notice by the lighter clothes in some pics) I have not been very successful as of late. Time is limited. Lotsa dinks like this have plagued me I love water shots (before I screw things up and lose them like a king bonehead extraodinaire) HJ chartreuse Storm jointed Surprise November LM caught on a spro almost as big! Only pike were invited Can't wait to see this dude in March! Nice tail How to get to know your Harbour police The Captain of the Exxon Valdez's leisure boat The 1st sticker reads, "I love cats, they taste like chicken" The 2nd sticker reads, "CAT, the other white meat" Specializing in making problems disappear. Wonder if they've ever worked under the table? Goodfellas Construction (note: if anything were to happen to me, please call the police) Thanks, S.

bigugli Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Who cares if you didn't get the pikie in your hands. If you got it to the shore or ledge, got to see it before it shook off, good enough for me. Water shot is even better. WTG Thanks for the porn. That turns my crank for the day.

highdrifter Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Snag... You're not a looser.. I'm sure your mom thinks your cool.

Billy - Curtiss Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Perhaps your inconsistency in landing those bad boys is directly attributable to your choice of footwear? They see those office loafers and they bolt for the high seas because they figure you're going to subject them to the tedium of the mail room!

Greencoachdog Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 (edited) Real nice report, pics, and fish!!! Glad to see you're getting a bit of fishin' in! Shold we ever meet, I can learn you how to take pics and get the whole fish in the frame... they look bigger that way, kinda like when they shave off yer pubes at the hospital! ... and if I should ever meet Snagelina, I'll be sure to tell her you said this: Luckily, marriage has conditioned me to accept crushing disappointment on a semi-regular basis.
