Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn’t go so far as to call a dog filthy but they’re definitely dirty. But, a dog’s got personality. Personality goes a long way.

Bottle of Viagra…gives an old man something to do if the fish ain’t biting.

I kiss the bait before I throw it out whether its artificial or live. Just started down here in texas making any girl on the boat flash the Fish Gods but We made that up cause there are a lot of girls down here with some bigguns.

From reds to marlin you got it.

GOTS to do da fish dance tho!!! Learned it from an old salt up in WA state salmon fishing, he also made me eat the warm still beating heart out of my first king salmon! I’ve been known to pull that one on first timers as well:):slight_smile:

I have a beat up old red GMC hat that I have worn for years. Lost one once a few years back in the Harbor and had to find one just like it…Its even ripped in the back, but if I’m fishing I’m in the beat up old red hat…

Everyone should believe in something, I believe I’ll go fishing !!!

I always bring a banana.If the fishing gets slow,I will eat it and throw the peel overboard.Doesn’t work all the time,but it definitely does sometimes.I have days when the banana just sits there and is not needed.I have also found that good,fresh bait almost always brings good fishing luck.:wink::smiley:

I had a lucky Yamaha visor that was key for years. For some reason it turned unlucky in 2009 and produced no fish of significance in both Costa Rica and Guatemala so I threw it in the water in Guatemala and the next day we caught a nice blue marlin…

I am looking for a new good luck charm

-lucky camo hat stuck through with hooks (hook only goes on the hat if it has landed a good fish). three previous lucky hats have been unwittingly or unwillingly donated to the big blue, but that just makes the next one luckier… right?

-da wheestle

-kiss and release every redfish i catch

i’d like to see a video thread of fish dances to decide which one looks best. penny’s the front runner since she described hers.

seems to be a lot of people here with very strong opinions on phallic fruit. i guess i’ll have to pay attention to that one. no cucumber superstitions?

A quarter stick of dynamite, it works everytime.:stuck_out_tongue:

an old bill fishing hat I found at IOP ramp a fews years back. One with a backside draping flap to keep the sun off of my neck. Picked it up, washed it. Always feel better about fishing when I wear it. Usually works, too.

What kind of fish is that? Can I eat it?

If I say something like “Man, the boat is running like crap” will it magically make the motor start running well? Wish my words had that sort of power! :sunglasses:

Don’t believe in superstition or “luck”. Amazed that some intelligent people do. Silliest thing I ever heard, especially the banana thing. But if it works for you, definitely go for it!

i used to think that too. then i got fat

wear an Abel tool on lanyard on neck, grandmother gave it to me for xmas before she died 10 yrs ago, cant fish w/o it, forgot it 1 morning a few years ago, got flat on trailer at 4:15 am while fuelin’ up, went home and retrieved it (after changin tire)… fish whistle, took wifey fishing yesterday, she likes whistle (me no), first stop, she decides to use it after i’ve put 1 bait on bottom and in process of deploying float rig, bottom rod goes off, unfortunately i was too close to rod and didnt let fish run jump before grabbin’ rod, line was arcing upwards when it went slack and all i had to show was a sandpapered leader with empty hook!!! she found this hysterical

If anyone can recommend a good luck charm that will help catch fish, please let me know. I am great at wasting bait but not too good at catching fish.
