Umm no. I'm saving it for the 10lber if I ever get it!

I'm starting to feel like i will never get mine either man!!!!

I am afraid that if i kiss one I will want to mount it.

ROTFLMFAO!! Hilarious!

Nope, I give them a nice pat on the side and always thank them.

Yes. Every single one. My grandpa used to always take me fishing but one day we went bass fishing. Not long later he passed away and that was the last trip. For 7 years (from age 9 - 13) all I can catch are bass. So, I catch the fish, kiss it, and release it. I believe its like kissing my grandpas tradition bye one last time

have not caught a pretty one yet that smelled good

No.  I  do thank them.

Nope, no kissing. But I always thank them before gently setting them back into the water.

No ~

But I will sometime apologize for the putting at least one hole in it somewhere.

A-Jay

Nope.  

Never kissed one.....but I think the big girls like to hear how good they look....

Nope no kisses for fish here. Too many unforseen germs nowadays. I had a little pickerel, a very aggressive 12" try to bite me a few times while trying to remove my crankbait he inhaled. These guys can be freshwater sharks. Any fish could bite right? No kisses for fish.

Never on a first date.

Check your PB.

I've kissed them, thanked um, talked to them. When I'm fishing I feel great and I'm passing it on I guess.

Sometimes, if it's a memorable catch. Good fish always get a "thank you" from me. 

No, but I always thank them for coming out to play.

Oh the egg on my face. But in my defense the thread popped back up today like it was recent. You're a young buck, you still have time to get some more 10+'s. I'm an old man. I might have to go to Mexico to get mine.

Not usually, but I always talk to them ;-)

And then, while I'm talking to them, and admiring them, I will often shift them to the left and right a little, watching their eyes rotate back and forth to stay focused on me. Ever do this ? It's pretty weird. This proves they are looking straight at you, and not just out into space somewhere :-)

Peace,

Fish

I do the exact same thing !! I'll catch and talk to them like "hey buddy how are you today. Oh your a little fatty aren't you, or the hyper ones I say calm down dude chill out " and I have moved them like you said and watch there eyes on you.. it is creepy. They just stay locked on .. like they are planning there take over !

@the reel ess No sir you don't. . . . Just come to FL for a week! We got em too

never

 

A good reason not to kiss a fish - you might die:

 

" The man was kissing the Dover sole in celebration of his catch when the six-inch (14cm) fish wriggled out of his hand and jumped into his mouth, a friend said."

Don’t kissing fish but will thank the big ones.

I do admit I sweet talk the ladies to land them. Sometimes it works to calm them down. But I haven't seen a mermaid yet to kiss. Lol
