Maybe you are just bitter becuase your reading comprehension skills are far worse then native lovers typo error? :confused:

I always urinate in my shorts when Im wading. I dont think it has to do with anything other then me having the bladder of an 8yo girl though... :(

Haha, no, I am not bitter, just poking fun, as when he pointed it out I was on next to no sleep (a combination of work,an accelerated online course, and just a hetic week in general), and therefore couldn't make sense, at least initially, of voss345's post... no need to piss yourself :)
 
me and my friends have noticed that everytime the fishings good n we take a picture of a monster... fish stop biting... we believe the snook gods are watching so whenever we take pics we try to move as fast and secretive as possible :P

also if we are fishing a dock with more than one person we cannot have more than 2/3 of the people on one side...

im sure theres more i just cant think of them
 
Didn't do bananas on my boats (they grow upside-down). Whenever a client had a monster king salmon on the line, I always told them it was a black rockfish until the fish was in the net. That way i didn't get pissed if we lost it. Whenever a big halibut as coming up, I never mentioned the kill gear (harpoon, shotgun). I just told my deckhands to get "the stuff." First fish of the day, if legal, was kept. Hated it when my clients wore camo. "Dude, the fish is 300 feet down!! Whatta going to do? Sneak up on it." Or "Sir, I'm so glad you wore the camo jumpsuit to come fishing with me. Now the fish won't be able to spot you onboard the 65 ft white, desiel burning, boat."
Just a few, after more then a decade of guiding, I'm sure I have more that I don't think are superstitions, just the only way things can be done!
 
When I was younger (5 or 6) my dad would spit into the mouth of a fish we caught that we was gonna throw back and he said that the fish would go and tell the other fish to not bite our bait so if we spit in its mouth the other fish wouldnt believe him...i only figured this out not too long ago but I guess my dad did alot of drinking when we went fishing lol
