I've always been a little partial to Ride of the Valkyries blaring out the Fis'n'Ski's CD player, screaming down the lake during duck season, dodging buckshot.

Nope, never listen to music.

Not normally but a good song or two before for can excite me for a good day.

Never.

I need to hear my surroundings. I mostly bank fish at night in areas known for mountain lions. They are sneaky enough as it is so I need every advantage I can get.

Plus, IMO, music would take away from the peacefulness of the outdoors.

Gotta love Aerosmith

I am 19 and have heard of 8 tracks , and vinyls. I have also touched some.

now about the music.

Bank fishing-sometimes depends if I remember

Boat (if i am on one) I think I would not want any music.

I selected some times, but when I do, it's not music, it's (man I'mgonna get basted for this) talk radio.

i'm always rockin an ipod when i fish by myself.

Same for me, just country!!!

Where I fish, there are no highways nearby.  There's an occassional plane.  But otherwise, it's just the sound of nature.  I don't get to hear just that enough to drown it out with music.  

I choose not to for the same reasons as you. Besides, taking in nature' music is better. But in the car, on the way to and home, that's a different story.

It sucks in the summer you cant hear the nature at all with a million jet skis flying by. Thats the only time I listen to music while fishing.

Never.

I'm with you Captain

Glad to see the other Roger is still on the map

Gotta love Aerosmith

Sox and Aerosmith, sure you were not born in New England?

I love to listen to music to relax but when I'm out on a lake Mother Nature wins out over music. I can listen to music when I get back home.  

Never have.  I can listen to music all week. When on the water I just want to relax and fish.

Going to and from the lake in the truck (Free bird). Once on the lake its all zen... Game on  !!

No music for me.. Nature is my music...
