SirCranksalot Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Ok, let's start with bronzebacks, bucket mouths, snot rockets for species. Then there's fishing 'conditions" ----lockjaw, putting on the feed bag----and on and on it goes. What are you favorites, or ones you love to hate??

Rich Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 My non-fishing friends always seem to laugh when I suggest using 'jerkbaits with the stop and go technique" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Ironmaker Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Jerk baits are the guys I didn't really like when I was younger but were chick magnets so I let them hang around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 "Greaser", "snake", "hammer handle", "smash" How bout "look at that thing run" .. kinda funny when you talking about water dwelling finned creatures. "Setting the hook" sounds more like you're making hooks in a mold "Bucktail" ... I wonder how many ppl hear that and thing we are cutting off deer tails and hanging them under a bobber? Lol One my friends always seem to laugh at "a fish just BOILED over there by my bait" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camillj Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 Heh ... actually thats exactly what the original buck tails were ... I still have a few from the first deer ever harvested by my father ... he died the hair yellow and made a bunch of jigs .. there's still some of us 'old schoolers' who believe they outperform all the newfangled technology How about 'birds nest' ... never been too fond of that one (especially when it happens to me or one of my guests) ... 'drift sock', 'cannonball', 'cheater', 'stinger', 'wooley buggar', 'squaretail', 'tail walking', 'walking the dog', 'shooting tip', 'spoon', 'passer moi la pissiore' - pass me the bailing bucket And one of my LEAST favourite ... 'cold front' ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crappieperchhunter Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 Dinks. A term you don't wanna hear. Slabs. A term you Do wanna hear. "We slaughtered em" The very best beginning when your telling someone of a recent fishing trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhioFisherman Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 Great Lakes groupers - A.K.A. Sheephead Hoovers - A.K.A. Carp Both can be interesting to catch, but not as much fun when smallies are the target? LOL, dinks to short to measure. I actually had a couple of friends nicknamed dink over the years, I never checked why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
