How Do You Show Off That You Fish.. 2025

tomustang reply :

When you're not fishing. Perhaps clothes, hats, a sticker on your car? Maybe even one of those Hook Hat clips...

I usually wear a st croix hat with my fishing license on it the majority of the time.

zip pow reply :

In every way hats shirts stickers fishing tackle scattered threw all my vehicle .spare rods in the back seat any body who looks has no doubt.

Hooligan reply :

I have no need of showing it. I've got two or three decals of products that I use and believe in, and a couple of the tourney trails I fish on the toolbox of my truck. Oh, and the wrap. That generally gives it away. If the boat always being behind it hasn't.

Red reply :

I use a Power Worm as an air freshener on my trucks rear view mirror.

I lived in a city that was big in crime and no one messed with my truck but you can always get one of them Hi-Tech alarms for you truck they are about $300 and do all kinds of stuff.

As you know MI only requires back plates....so my front plates is a Bass chasing a crankbait with the words "Bass fever". I stick out like a sore thumb....lol. I always have my neighbors asking me how the fishing is...

Bluebasser86 reply :

I don't hardly own a shirt that isn't fishing related, unless it's hunting related. Raccoon eyes year round, fishing hats, "So many fish, so little time" hitch cover.

bwillis reply :

I have a canoe, but live in an apartment, so my canoe stays in the bed of my truck from spring until october or so. That's about it.

I usually take It a step further and dye my moustache and eyebrows chartreuse, my knuckle hair blue, and my ear hair red.

Daniel My Brother reply :

Mountain Angler reply :

Bankbeater reply :

I have a pic of my pb on the wall at work.

John G reply :

On the front of my truck

Gatorbassman reply :

I don't........ People who know me know I fish. I don't need to show it off.

Clash City Rocker reply :

I wear crankbaits for man-earings.

Clash City Rocker reply :

...and the BPS catalogs I keep in the bathroom at work.

Lucky Craft Man reply :

I have a vanity plate on my car that proclaims I am a fisherman.

Olebiker reply :

Tallahassee Bass Anglers license plate on the front of the truck, Humminbird, Falcon Rods, and B.A.S.S. stickers in the rear window, caved in license plate in the rear from hitting it with the trailer while hooking up the boat.

Dylanl reply :

I have a St. Croix sticker on my car window right now. I have a couple fishing shirts I wear once in awhile to. I don't feel a huge need to show it off. People who know me know I fish.

senile1 reply :

Ironic, yes, but true just the same. If you didn't know me it would be a rare occasion when you could tell I was an angler by my clothing or anything else. Of course, when I'm pulling my boat or I have a jon boat hanging out the back of my truck it is obvious but that's not showing off. That's a necessity to go fishing.

redboat reply :

I make it a habit to wear my Cabellas cap to Bass pro and vice versa. I fish Abu Garcia, Shimano, and Quantum rods, but since GLoomis is giving away hats and shirts FREE I suppose I'll get me some of 'em. If they start giving away their fish poles for free I'll probably get me some of THEM too. Just sayin...

I had me one o' them Saint Croak rods, broke it on the third cast. Then I found out they don't have any warranty, and neither does Gloomey. So I buy other products these days.

Fishing Rhino reply :

I don't, and I won't, unless someone can convince me that stickers, decals, and other paraphernalia affixed to me or my truck will make me a better fisherman.

When a passerby will strike up a convo since he noticed a common ground it might lead you to a honey hole,where theyre hitting, or at the least a good story.

My experience is that there are very few anglers who will give the keys to their honey hole to a total stranger. But, it's just me. If someone wants to cover the dents and diggers on their boats or tow vehicles, that's great. It's just not my style. There is no right or wrong when it comes to displaying your interests. Well, most interests anyway.

I see your point, my area is much different. Such poor conditions to fish its more like you have to tell others. There are the idiots out there though I admit that, but hearing about locations help me out.

gr8outdoorz reply :

Only ones that need to worry whether I fish or not...are the fish!

LgMouthGambler reply :

I carry around a Bass that I caught 4 years ago everywhere I go. Theres not much left of it but some dried up skin and protruding skeleton, and it kind of smells, but its a good conversation starter!

SAC2 reply :

ive got a sticker of a smallie in my back window and wear a fishoflauge hat just about everywhere i go. im normally tinkerin with, or talking about something pertaining to fishing at pretty much all times. i dont purposely flaunt the fact i'm a fisherman, but i just can help myself from showing something i'm so passionate about.

Wild Bill [NY] reply :

The green Ranger towed behind my Suburban kind of tells them...

Har, har, har !!

Avalonjohn44 reply :

When at work I just complain to whoever that will listen that I ought to be fishing rather than stuck there with them.

wisconsin heat reply :

I got a new Trokar sticker on my car

NorcalBassin reply :

My G Loomis tattoo. Okay, not true. I suppose that the "free" TW sweatshirt from 2 BF's ago that I seem to wear all the time I'm not working gives me away.

Ratherbfishing reply :

Don't need to show off. But if one was to ask how people can identify me as a fisherman, I'd say it's the nervous tick I've developed from all the hours of waiting for that minute little "tap tap" on the other end of the line or, perhaps, the odd expression I now have from holding my mouth just so.
