You Might Be a Fisherman if.....
Saw this on fishing site and thought it was to good not to share.
You might be a fisherman if...
1. You have a power worm dangling from you rear view mirror because you think it makes a good air freshener.
2. Your wedding party has to tie tin cans to the back of your boat.
3. You call your boat "sweetheart" and your wife "skeeter."
4. Your local tackle shop has your credit card number on file.
5. You keep a flippin stick by your favorite chair to change the tv channels with.
6. You get 40 to life because your teenager asked you to buy a jet ski.
7. You name your black lab "Mercury" and your cat "Evinrude".
8. Bass Pro Shop has a private line just for you.
9. You honeymooned in Islamorada - ALONE.
10. You have your name painted on a parking space at the launch ramp.
11. You have a photo of your 40 lb. grouper on your desk at work instead of your family.
12. You consider viennies and crackers a complete meal.
13. You think MEGABYTES means a great day fishing.
14. You send your kid off to the first day of school with his shoes tied in a polomar knot.
15. Your wife wears green lipstick so you'll kiss her more.
16. You think there are four seasons - Pre-spawn, Spawn, Post spawn and Hunting.
17. Your $30,000 boat's trailer need's tires so you "borrow" the one's off your trailer house.
18. Your wife tells you she is feeling "frisky" but you don't know what she means until she explains she wants to spawn.
19. You trade your wife's van for a smaller vehicle so your boat will fit in the garage.
20. Your kids know it's Saturday - because the boat is gone.

You brush your dog and suddenly shout out "Dubbing!!!":cheers:
Your wife asked where her sewing thread went to and you give her a sheepish "I dunno"8-[
Your out on the porch at midnight staring at the light and taking notes on the bugs around the light.:geek:
Your driving down the road and see road kill.......

RE:You Might Be a Fisherman if.....
I've heard of people doing that. Maybe it was even in these forums I read it. At first I thought, "What kind of backwoods, hill billy takes roadkill....!?!??".Marc Martyn wrote:Your driving down the road and see road kill.......
Then like a grasshopper in the face at 50mph it hits me..."Hey, that's not such a bad idea, really..."

Hey I'm that backwoods HillBilly. But no offense taking.I thought the same thing when one of buddies turned me on to the idea.I just try not to do it with the ol lady in the car.Makes kind of hard to get lucky later after she see's me stoop over roadkill.leahcim_dahc wrote:I've heard of people doing that.

Marc that is a great idea about the light on the porch looking at the bugs.I might put the zapper up soon.That way I get a real good look.Thanks for the idea.

Sorry...thought it was the weirdest thing looking at roadkill for fishing...but I understand why now. :-)shawn wrote:Hey I'm that backwoods HillBilly.

Something else along those lines....I was watching a program on the Discovery Channel the other day, and this entomologist (hopefully I spelled that correctly) used what looked like an ordinary white bed sheet and a black light to attract bugs. While the black light was on and pointed towards the sheet, the bugs would land all over the sheet.shawn wrote:Marc that is a great idea about the light on the porch looking at the bugs.I might put the zapper up soon.That way I get a real good look.Thanks for the idea.
I bet it would be rather interesting to set something up near a body of water...maybe with some tent poles or something and a 12v black light (similar to those used as automotive leak detectors) and see what comes up.

It's OK I thought so too.One mans roadkill is another mans treasure.Lol. It's amazing the things you will do in pursuit of a fish.leahcim_dahc wrote:Sorry...thought it was the weirdest thing looking at roadkill for fishing...but I understand why now. :-)shawn wrote:Hey I'm that backwoods HillBilly.
