Dumb and Dumber

 

Because of the size of their tiny brains I've heard people say fish are "dumb". Well that means most of the time I'm even "dumber" because they outsmart me!


fishing user avatarthe reel ess reply : 

Is Dumb & Dumber taken?

 

edit: I see just above my post I was barely beaten to it. Just like I used to get up with the chickens and go out to the spot i wanted to fish only to find two boats already there.

I caught more fish on top water this year, than I have the last 2-3 years combined. 

 

I now have a love affair with the Whopper Plopper.

Our whole fishing experience ( skills or not) can best be described by the movie title THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES.

          Need I say more.


fishing user avatarBankbeater reply : 

This year it has been "The Longest Day".


fishing user avatarww2farmer reply : 

"Runner Up"

 

I hold the worlds' record for 2nd place finishes in local tournaments the last 10+ years.

 

162 tournaments under my belt.

 

14 wins.

 

49 2nd place finishes !!!!

 

Another 15 money finishes, be it 3rd, 4th, lunker or something.

 

I rarely get beat by the same person twice, and more times than not, it has taken the person (or team) that's beaten me the day of their lives. Rarely do I get blown out either, it's usually a squeaker.

 

Oddly...most of my wins have been either in grinds when no one else caught much, or in total blowout fashion where 2nd wasn't even close.

Last time I went out the water temp was in the 40s and the water was like sludge from all the rain and flooding.  Got skunked.  But the campgrounds were closed, the docks were pulled up, not a soul around.  I floated in a cove and ate my lunch and saw two red foxes on a peninsula not 25 yards from me.  It's peace I'm fishing for.

fishing user avatarsoflabasser reply : 

Another movie that reminds of the fishing down here is ''Jurrasic World'' since we have so many species of large reptiles in South Florida.  We got American alligators, American crocodiles, Nile crocodiles, caimans, Burmese pythons, rock pythons, green iguanas and other species of reptiles. We also got lots of hard fighting exotic fish which are very fun to catch. Add the fact that we got tropical weather for most of the year, have awesome fishing for freshwater/saltwater species and this place is Heaven for someone that loves to fish and likes reptiles.

I have you beat for second place finishes including club AOY. Only one first place finish in 14yrs. I did manage big bass honors with regularity, but even then 2nd place seemed to be reserved for my name. 

 

As as for a movie title: The Rodfather sounds appropriate.

2 or 3 hours is like a whole day.

 

seriously, it’s more like Die Hard With a Vengence Behind Enemy Lines.

 

I say behind enemy lines, too, because You travel light behind enemy lines. I use a finesse type set up for everything and don’t carry a ton of stuff. Just the necessities.
