[bunnykilla]

Hi Guys

I need to compile a list of fishing slogans but don't know any because
i'm not a fisherman :)

Anyone got any suggestions or good one liners?

Tight Lines
You Should Have Been Here Yesterday
The Big One got Away
Not all fishermen are liars, but a lot of liars fish
Limited out
Hosed 'em
Slayed 'em

Either the poster is an optimist, or he's never been "skunked."

Fortenberryism: He took it hook, line, and sinker.

Reidism: Man overboard!

Opieism: I got skunked.

A bad day fishin' beats any day at work.

Wife wanted: need not know how to cook, clean or change diapers, but must
possess flyfishing gear. Send picture of rods and reels!

Honey hole or secret fishin' spot.

You say you're gonna fish one of Walt's Yellow Humpys? Sure, I'll be your
fishin' partner!

That's why they call it fishing, not catching

He had me into the backing
I am in over my waders
They were sipping emergers
I had an inspection and a refusal
I had a long distance release
Caught so many my arm got tired
Ripped some Lip
Robbed my hook
The bobber went under
GET THE NET!
Lip landing
Banging the banks
Pounding them up
catch and releaase
matching the hatch
A fisherman is a jerk at one end of the line waiting for a jerk at the other
Early to bed, early to rise, fish like hell, make up lies
It's a hawg!
It's a bigun!
Thisun's a Toad! (heard that on TV and almost lost it)
Honey hole
hammer handle
dinks
shorts
I got two that were legal
I got a six incher and some small ones
Got him on a garden hackle
Bucket Squatter

....is that a carp in your waders or are you just glad to see me?

The water's too hot.
The water's too cold.
It's too sunny.
It's not sunny enough.
You should have been here yesterday.
You should have been here tomorrow.
Pee before you put on your waders.
You can't catch fish with your fly out of the water.
Should have used a smaller fly.
Should have used a larger fly.

From a fly pattern:
Wrap three times around the butt and whip it.

Hoffman is marketing a new wader which makes this one moot.

My favorites are
Hit it fat
and
Rub some dirt on it.
Tho those are germaine to golf and basball. But still good ones

The fish are allways on the other side of the river (lake, creek).
Quicker than a Gar can skin a minner.

LDR (long distance release)
Do these waders make my butt look big?
Hey, put sumt'in orange on!
These #32 royal coachmen flies keep hooking worms. (Patrick McManus I
think)
They were pounding dries
Tried to match the hatch
Couldn't buy a fish
Tried everything in my box
They're taking LGF's (little green f*ckers) (John M., Fort Smith)

Here's one I didn't see listed:

How do you tell if a fisherman is lying? His lips are moving!

Old fishermen never die, they only smell that way.

A bad day fishing is better than a good day at the office.
