Dream Of Fishing ? Am I Alone ? Share Yours... 2024
lanzbass reply :
Although I spend a good amount of my time fishing ...
and feel that my hobby is not in control of me... (I think) ... 
I find myself dreaming about fishing at times...
My last dream was a few hours ago... it went like this...
"The boys and I headed out extra early to one of our special fishing spots ,
but when we got close to the spot the road was flooded out and had to head back home "...
What dream have you had ?
Felix77 reply :
The dreams I have generally include a hot babe that is out of my league, a boat I can't afford and a secluded cove that might hold some good fish ...
Bluebasser86 reply :
I set the hook in my sleep so hard once that I punched a hole in the wall above my bed when I was still living with my parents.

We'll need a pic for that one lol .
I've dreamed about fishing a couple times, and I've been up at night losing sleep over the next morning's fishing so many times.

I do a lot. Then I wake up sad...

I have a reoccurring dream of a fishing trip that I remember having with my Grandmother and Grandfather. I love it when I have this dream and always wake with a smile on my face.
lectricbassman reply :
Have dreams about fishing ALL the time. Usually they are of me just fishing. I had one recently that i caught a state record. Funny thing is that ive never specifically targeted big bass. Im just happy if i catch any.
scaleface reply :
If Ive been fishing hard that day , when I close my eyes at night I can still see the water and me casting at it .
Scott F reply :
I often dream I'm in my boat and going over dry land and roads trying to get back to the water.
Steveo-1969 reply :
Yup, I dream about fishing a couple times a week that I remember. I don't usually remember specifics except that the dream was about fishing.
FunkJishing reply :
I remember dreaming of being on a dock fishing with a yo-zuri crystal minno and hooking into a striper and having my rod break causing me to have to reel the fish in by hand lol. it was crazy and so vivid.
corn-on-the-rob reply :
I hate not being able to sleep before fishing or tournaments.
This winter has gotten to me though, a couple days ago I dreamt that I caught and weighed a 15lber but it only measured 11 inches so I had to throw it back for the tournament. When I woke up I realized how absurd the fish looked, it was like some one took a frying pan to a giant basses face until it was 11 inches.
Ratherbfishing reply :
Many of my dreams have more to do with fishing tackle (lures) than they do with fishing itself. I once dreamt I had stumbled upon an old abandoned/forgotten bait store on the edge of a lake and there were aisles and aisles of great old baits. I was completely ecstatic as I filled a bag with lures. I told myself to stop and save some for others but then I kept going and going. In another dream there was a spillway which had drained dry and in the bottom were hundreds of baits of every description.
Come to think of it, most of my fishing dreams wind up frustrating-like my boat motor won't start or I've snagged a carp. I seldom actually catch fish in my dreams. : (

Lmao.That would disqualify you in a T
Once in a while when I lean back in my easy chair and doze off, I`ll set the hook.
My wife laughs and asks "did ya get him"

TyTheAngler reply :
I dream about hooking huge catfish a lot. not sure why because I bass fish most of the time but its still pretty cool 
everythingthatswims reply :
Had a dream that I caught a really big brown trout and put it in a cooler on ice. When I checked on the fish it had turned into a big sucker, but someone told me it's their natural defense against humans and it was just trying to get me to throw it back.
I have ZERO idea how that dream came about, usually dreams are bits and pieces of things I have thought about or done recently put together in unusual ways, but this dream was just plain weird.
DogBone_384 reply :
Can't say I have dreams about fishing, nor dreams of women out of my league or boats out of my price range (wife is stunning Filipina and I'd have to give up my motorcycles for a boat), but I DO dream of only working 1 job by my mid 50's so I CAN fish more .... At that point I'll get the boat.
Jolly Green reply :
Sometimes, but I do often cast myself to sleep. Beats counting sheep.
livetofish28 reply :
I know I have had dreams about fishing before and I am pretty sure I've set the hook a few times lol. I did have a dream one time that when I was fishing strictly for walleye I kept hooking into everything but walleye. Largemouth, small mouth, sucker, giant bream, and a goby lol. The ironic thing is that is exactly the case. I still haven't caught a walleye after 4 trips fishing for them lol. I used to not be able to sleep before tournaments but now typically sleep well the night before unless I'm away from home then I don't sleep haha
tight lines

Turtle135 reply :
frequently dream of fishing, almost always it is bass in shallow clear water where I can see them, cast to them and watch them take the lure
LittleBob reply :
I had one just the other night where the bass were going crazy over my LC gunfish, they were hitting it every cast. I was beyond upset to wake up and find it was just a dream.
hoosierhawghunter reply :
Usually it's looking over the side of the boat when dad is idling down the lake. And I somehow smell that sweet sweet smell of a Mercury in the morning.
VtGr0wn reply :
Had a dream the other night that i caught a large red snapper type fish that looked very bassy
Borderline11 reply :
The one dream that always stands out to me...
My bother and I were fishing in this big pond in front of my dad's old work building from a red and black bass boat (that we don't own and the pond doesn't exist in real life, it's just a big lawn with a drainage ditch). I was throwing a crank bait and hook into a monster. I'm talking WR for sure. The bass was well over 3 ft long, had a mouth as big as a basketball, and a belly like it swallowed a potato sack. Huge! Like grouper big. I'm as excited as can be, knowing what's on the other end of the line. So I'm fighting this thing in for what seems like an eternity and my brother decides he's going to reposition the boat to help me instead of grabbing the net. He has a total brain fart and steers the trolling motor right over the line. SNAP! As he's bent over in disbelief at the front of the boat, I kick him in square in the ass overboard. I then grab every rod and piece of tackle on the boat and throw it in as well. The dream always ends with me flipping him the bird over my shoulder as I throttle out of there. I'm not positive, but I feel like there's a life metaphor in there somewhere.
The first time I had the dream, I woke up genuinely mad. Didn't talk to him for two days haha.
Dylcook91 reply :
Yeah I have fishing dreams every now and then. It always takes place at one of the ponds I fish. I will hook into the bass of a lifetime, but never actually see the fish. Then after what seems to be the worlds most physically draining largemouth fight, the line breaks.
I'll get em one of these nights.
everythingthatswims reply :
I also has a dream that I was just fishing in my back yard and trout would jump out of the ground to eat my bait.

Snakehead Whisperer reply :
Had a memorable one a couple weeks back.
I was fishing the tidal Potomac at the mouth of a non-existent creek near Alexandria, VA and throwing a popper. Had a fish just barely suck in the lure... set the hook and the fight was on. All in all a pretty lackluster fight, netted and brought aboard. Then upon looking closer at the fish, it was a warsaw grouper that went about 20lbs. Weird.
Pretty awesome dream, got me wishing it was warmer outside.
Darren. reply :
I do, indeed! Sometimes I daydream with my
eyes closed - purposefully pondering fishing.
Often it includes a state record... I've imagined
a WR bass, but hey, I tone it down to state so
as to dream a more achievable dream, LOL!!

Sounds like a great dream. The VA state record is nothing to scoff at, and you're actually in the right part of the state to beat it...
16lbs 4oz caught by Richard Tate at Lake Connor.

Oh I'm aware, alright!! 
My dreams beat it by at least 2 pounds.
Montanaro reply :
I've hit my girlfriend a few times setting the hook...
I usually don't land fish and spend more time getting to the spot than fishing. A common theme is scaling steep banks and wading through chest high crocodile water (no not alligator) to get to that perfect spot...then I awake without making a cast.
MichiganBass80 reply :
I usually have some WEIRD fishing dreams. I'll either be catching some ugly alien looking fish or I'll be fishing in some odd places. For instance I had a dream a few months back where I was at the house I grew up in and the road the house was on wasn't a road anymore, it was a river. Still had the sidewalks and all the other houses around and everything, but instead of where to road should be it was water.
One of my not so weird ones was a couple weeks ago. My cousin and I had driven down to Erie, I took my boat, but he was going to hop into another boat and fishing as a co-angler in a tournament. We got my boat in that water, I took off the go to the bathroom, and when I came back he was gone and I couldn't find the boat. I called him, and he had docked it at a nearby bar/restaurant. So i walk over (in the dream it was only 20-30 yards away lol) get the boat, and noticed that my cousin had to use all of my dads rods because he forgot his, but while taking them out of the locker he made a mess taking everything out of every compartment. And once I got stuff put back and started taking out my rods, there were a bunch of old ones and broken ones and I couldn't get sorted through them to get to my good ones.
FishTank reply :
It hit 50 degrees today in Indiana and the lake and ponds are still frozen solid. I call it warm weather cabin fever.
Don't Tell The Wife reply :
I had a weird one last night... buddy and I were in our BPS Pro Qualifier rain gear in a big parking lot while it was raining. We were throwing Megabass 110's into the "shallow" water in the parking lot and I eventually told my budd I am not throwing these any more because I don't want to mess up the paint. If I remember right they were bouncing when they hit and had no action on the retrieve because there was not enough water. After I quit buddy kept throwing his and I told him that he was going to bust the bill off that thing.
Not sure what happened next.
powerduster reply :
my fishing dreams are too bizzarre to describe properly. in one dream i was in a pay lake, and in another, i was fishing within a gated community. i remember waking up dazed and confused, but it was fun while it lasted.
RSM789 reply :
I have had a few dreams where I am on a boat, trying to make a cast, when suddenly all of the water is less than 1" deep. No matter where I cast, the lure sticks out of the water & there aren't any fish anywhere. Same kind of frustration type dreams other people have had.

I was at my brother's lacrosse tournament in VA Beach this summer, there was a 15-20 acre lake within walking distance so I grabbed my rod (that I ALWAYS keep in the car when traveling) and headed over to fish it. The entire lake was 1' deep and there were no fish anywhere. Very strange. (Not a dream)
Senko lover reply :
I had a really weird dream last night where I was fishing an elite event. I remember watching Ish Monroe and telling my Dad about the incident that happened with him. Then I remember getting up on the stage and showing the crowd what I was going to use to win the event: A shakyhead with a spinnerbait attatched to the line, with a senko trailer. Weirdest setup ever!
bigbill reply :
I had to stop eating PEPPERONI PIZZA after midnight because of night mares.
I never dreamed about fishing. Probably because being retired since 2002 I been living it.

I have weird fishing dreams. I'm always fishing in a room. Casting under furniture, into closets.
It's just plain scary.
