fishindevil Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 Never forget your ofc team sign at home for most of the summer !!!!!!! Cause that's when all the big fish want to come into the boat to find out why !!!! Been there done that ...... Grrrr
sauce Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 Don't try to tie on a lure with only 2 feet of line out the end of your rod. Slack line when tying knots makes tying good knots quickly a breeze.
cheaptackle Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 Be happy where you are most of the time - if ya keep telling the Captain ya think the fish are "over there" every 2 minutes, and whining that there ain't any here, you may end up walking (swimming) back to shore - and yes it happened - fortunately (or not depending on one's view) I was the Captain.....and I did put up with it for the morning, I was out all day - you do the math! (we weren't THAT far from shallow water) Michael
Headhunter Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 Don't bet on the ponys.. save your money for tackle. Plant your corn early, you'll have more time to fish. Don't fish with Cliff. HH
Beans Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 Wash your hands with toothpaste or ketchup to get rid of the fishy smell...
mattybculp Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 Buy a net, not a cradle. I have one if anyone wants it ! free for the taking !
mirogak Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 chill out and have fun even when you get skunked
SirCranksalot Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 Don't go back looking for the ones you already caught(and kept)!
lew Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 And always remember, you don't need to catch a fish to have a great day of fish'n
kerry k cass Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 If you want to get bigger fish in the boat, take your wife/girlfriend fishing with you.
aplumma Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 Share you productive lure with the first kid you see, it will start him on a good road for the rest of his life. Art

irishfield Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 When you find a new boat to hang out in, be sure to wipe your feet before jumping in....
misfish Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 When you find a new boat to hang out in, be sure to wipe your feet before jumping in.... Your not one of those guys are ya? Or is that just a Lund owners rule?
Burtess Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 Always bring a garbage bag in with you and fill it up before you leave. Burt

SirCranksalot Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 Leave the booze ashore---fishing is intoxicating all by itself!!
irishfield Posted April 30, 2013 Report Posted April 30, 2013 There was a message in there Bry.. that wasn't it... Your not one of those guys are ya? Or is that just a Lund owners rule?
Canuck2fan Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 The most important tip I ever got was from my Grandfather... If you are going to take the time, spend the gas money and other expenses involved to go more than an half hour from home. TAKE at least 2 rods and reels with you!!! I have had many pals who constantly natter and chirp about my bringing too much equipment only to have THEIR trip saved by my having another setup they could use when theirs broke, went in the water or had line that had all but rotted off because they left it in the sunlight all summer before the fall steelhead season started. (Fortunately, though I have never needed a second setup for myself but I always have one just in case.) Also it is an EXCELLENT excuse to buy this year's model of rod and reel when I really don't need too LOL. On a side note does anyone know of a fishing swap meet coming up?
mike rousseau Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 Watch nature... Look for diving birds... They feed on the same bait that game fish eat... Learn to read water... I've been driving down the river and whipped a u turn because I saw something with the current I liked on the surface... GPS shows nothing special... And the spots usually have fish to offer up... Time on the water is the most valuable tool... If an angler is willing to put in the time and try different techniques... They'll be successful... Be "cautious" about sharing information... Nothing worse then hitting your favorite spot and seeing you "friend" has spent all morning filling their live well on the spot you worked hard learning...especially when your in a tournament or something... I only show buddies "community" spots anymore... The spots that already get beat up... Keep my more "secret" spots for family fishing or when I need fish on a tough day...
Harrison Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 (edited) 1. Life's full of suprises so make sure you have a minnow net handy if you let your young kids use your livewell to go #1. 2. If you like fiction, you'll love dock talk. 3. IF you lose your hat in 5ft swells on Lake Ontario, forget about it. Life goes on. 4. If your better half harps on you for your lure collection, remind them shoes are not the only things that are seasonal and come in pairs. 5. If your going to buy a rainsuit, buy a good one. Thats all I can think of for now. Edited May 1, 2013 by Harrison
aplumma Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 Life's full of suprises so make sure you have a minnow net handy if you let your young kids use your livewell to go #1. O.K. now that's funny and so true. Art
