before rigging a soft plastic I always bite off the tip where I insert the hook. kinda like pulling the pin on a grenade. just gets the juices flowing and gets the mood set for fishing. kinda weird but oh well.

I hope you don't fish with Powerbait plastics, or especially Gulp plastics  ;D

That would be horrible.Hope you don't use live bait either.

I do the exact same thing with Zoom Trick Worms, because the end sometimes sticks out too fer.

LOL. I was normal before I started reading this, but now I think I've gone crazy....

Some of mine:

1) Always check the livewell during tournaments...ALWAYS!

2) When I'm fun-fishing, I always have some hard core metal playing in the truck...but when I'm driving to the boat ramp on tournament day...DEAD SILENT...I dont know why, but it really gets me in the zone.

3) Always wear a hat...I have a "lucky hat" ( my white Arkansas Razorback) that I always have to have with me. Even when I'm fishing a tourney, I have to at least put it on for 5 min. for some luck to rub off.

So I'm not the only one catching funny looks when opening up a pack of worms and smelling them and holding them up to the light... :-? ;D

always seem to hook a big'un shortly after lighting a cigar. never fails. :

Some of the comments on here are so true haha.

Now I dont feel so bad...

I always listen to the Wreck of Edmund Fitzgerald before I go out... Even tho im 300 miles from there.

And usually when I tie on a new Big-O I flick it to wake it up.

And my wife says I compulsivly buy tackle.

I fish barefoot.

I thought I was the only guy that fishes barefoot. But other then that. I need to wear the same hat. I guess I always have to play some speed metal on the way to the fishing hole. Then on the wy back I play some classic rock.
