TW T-shirts make up a significant % of your total clothes.

Have enough of the litte TW boxes thrown in the corner that you can build an igloo.

When your wifes nightstand has a clock, a lamp, and the latest novel. Yours has a collection of fishing magazines, catalogs, brochures, etc., from the past year, piling up so that you can't even get to your clock. And more keep coming.

Anybody can be a fisherman, there are guys here that fish with a can, a few yards of line and some hooks.

 

Now, being a BASS fisherman it´s a whole different class, we are in a different universe when it comes to spending the money we don´t have in stuff we really don´t need in order to catch the Little Green Goblin that don´t have much brain but we credit it of being smarter than Einstein.

- when you can remember the exact details of your PB, but you can't remember your wedding day.

 

- when you get your daily salt intake by licking your fingers after rigging a soft plastic bait.

When you think garlic smells like JJ's rather than the other way around.

When you buy a bigger house to have enough wall space to hang all your trophies and big fish pictures.

When your reach over to turn your alarm off and get a hook in your hand

When you mess with a reel when your bored

When you try to punch ice with a two ounce weight when the ponds frozen

tight lines

Once again I'm not a fisherman, I have no idea of when I caught my personal best and don't even know what the size was, remember most details from my wedding day.

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

When you sit on your living room couch practicing your pitching into the old Christmas tree holder because its too cold to fish

 

when you show up early afternoon and the first question you get asked is where you went fishing today

 

when you get asked why you weren't in class and you reply "I was fishing"

 

when you "don't have money" to go out with friends, but you just bought a new rod and reel

AMEN!

You know your a fisherman when....

 

You fish a tournament on your wedding day cuz the bite was on!

When you throw a frog over thin ice and wait for that blow up. true story, I've seen it happen and the fish went right through the ice.

it takes you eight hours to pack your tackle box.

I once dropped a line in a gold fish bowl.

If you use your finger because you forgot the boat plug

If you take the battery out of your truck when you get to the lake for your trolling motor

- When your side of the bathroom sink looks like a tornado hit it but your tackle box is immaculately organized and labeled.

- When your reading material for time spent on the "Porcelain Throne" is nothing but bass magazines.

- When you have a folder designated "Fishing Material" on your computers desktop.

- When half of your apps on your phone are fishing related.

when you get a double digit on a pink rod w/ zebco 33
