I'll start.

You know you're a fisherman when:

 

-Your boat cost more than the truck you pull it with

 

-You can operate electronics with the latest and greatest technology, but can't figure out how to text your kids

 

 

Keep it going. Let's see what you guys can come up with.

    I...I mean you moan & groan about having to be up at 8 am for work, but you are on the lake by 4:30 am on weekends

  • When you can't drive over a bridge without looking down to see if the water looks "bassy".

It's only January and everything you could possibly rearrange, clean or polish is already done!

When you're completely packed in December for a fishing trip scheduled in March ~

You forget your anniversary every year, but have no problem remembering to renew your fishing license.

You can drag a boat to the ends of the earth, but cant drag the trash to the end of the driveway :grin:

When you say "graph" instead of "fish finder".

You bought matching truck and boat trailer rims.

You pierced your daughters ears with a 2/0 worm hook.

You named a pet after your favorite lure.

You have bluegill or perch in the family fish tank.

You have a skin mouth right next to the wedding photos.

You find a way to bring up your personal best in every conversation.

You have a spare rod combo in your wife's car.

You bought a house in a bad neighborhood, poor school system, and far away from work just so you're closer to the lake.

Your favorite dance is The Worm.

You have reel grease stains on your couch.

You thought about eating pork trailers.

On a recent trip to court you corrected the judge that you set the hook instead of setting the bail.

In every picture your family has of you, you're holding a fish.

You drive 45 minutes to the grocery store across town because the pond next to that one has bigger fish

You go fishing the day before your wedding AND on you honeymoon!!!

 

Jeff

You proposed to your wife on your bass boat. 

You punch your woman in the face at night due to setting the hook in your dream. 

You tell your buddy to hold your pole and its not awkward. 

walking the dog requires a fishing pole, not a leash. 

when your woman doesn't ask questions when your fingers smell fishy.

When you realize that you'll never have too much fishing stuff

I heard this somewhere - The local tackle shop has your credit card number on file.

how the heck are you setting the hook?

 

 

When you tell people you like to fish and then they say they love fishing  :rolleyes7: and proceed to tell you the last time they got out was more than a year ago.

If you put more gas in the boat than the truck.

 

If the only time your wife believes you is when you say you are going fishing.

guilty

 

I fished Lake Agnes the morning of and remember more about fishing than the ceremony...then we left for Highland Marina, West Point Lake, Georgia for the honeymoon.  We have not been on a vacation without the boat since.

I have an actual charge account at my local tackle store...its bad lol

Hard, just ask my wife lol.

 

Both of us were sleeping and my wife had her head on my right shoulder. I set the hook as if I was bringing the rod up towards the right side of my body. I hit her with a closed fist due to my right hand gripping my reel. She woke up cussing wondering why I just smacked her and I was upset because I didn't get to land that giant bass that just ate my jig.  :laugh5:
