"Do fish bite when it rains?" or "Do you catch anything in the rain?"
"No, they go indoors until it stops." or "No, I just want to stand outside and get wet."

:wall: :wall: :wall: :wall:

Some idiot in sandals fishing on a pier caught a sea robin, and kicked it, cutting his toe on that operculum spine. The moron then screamed that it bit him, and asked if it's poisonous. I told him that he'd probably lose his foot.

On an environmentalist website (I'm not against them, I'm just against stupidity): "Because of the dams, the salmon cannot swim upstream to give birth." If laying eggs = giving birth, I'd be giving birth monthly.

I love when im fishing Jamaica Pond in the city and im hooked up with a good size fish for a while and then when I land it the people behind me ( who have been watching for the last 10-15min ask did you pull that out of here ????? ....No I took it out for a swim around the lake I usualy tell them.

The dumbest thing I ever heard was one night when my buddy and I were fishing east beach , way down into ninigret park. there wasn't anyone else on the whole beach. I had a rod spiked with a chunk out and I was working an eel with another rod. My friend Chris from Jersey was just working an eel.

This guy walks up and starts fishing right in front of us. Next thing you know he is walking on , then tangled in , my bait line. he turns around and says "is this your line?" (there was nobody for 3 miles either side of us). I said yes. he then asked if id reel it in and move it so he could fish there!!! :) True story!!!

This was so bizzar I just reeled it in and watch him fish. he lasted about 3 minutes (it was very cold) then left. My friend and I laughed about that for an hour.

This has happened to all of us. The real stupid question as you are pulling your boat out of the water on the ramp.
Where did you catch the fish? Needs no reply. Just that stupid glare look at them will do it! You can answer, in the water, works also.
The real thought is, like I am going to tell you where I got it. Right!
My personal favorite is while putting away my boat in land storage for the night, taking our gear out, after fishing the second week of November. I guy that thought he knew wat was going on, walks up to us and says, you guys been ot fishing? I said yep! He says, dont you know that all the Stripers are all gone up here, by the second week of October! I said No Sh$$. I said, I feel like a fool. He said, I thought you would appreciat the heads up. I said, thanks. When he left, we had a great laugh. We pulled. two fortys out of the boat. I remember the night well. I lost the biggest fish of my life thet night.
Happy New year every body. The fish are just starting to get nudgy! :gu:

Guy on Beach: You catchin any Stripers?
ME: Just a few schoolies.
Guy on beach: No Stripers though?

don't remember who i heard this one from so i am sorry if it was you. a fellow fisherman was at the railroad bridge in the parking lot telling me a story about an out of stater pulling up to him and asking if the land on the other side was martha's vineyard! doh!

a stupid THING that happened
fishing the beach front in front of some houses. nice sunny morning, walkers, dog walkers, and runners going up and down the beach. had 2 fish laying in the sand at my feet, lady walks up and asks me if they are bluefish...i say yup and smile..she says nice catch, starts walking away, pulls out a tissue. she uses it and drops it. i run over grab it, and hand it to her, saying hey, you dropped this. i dont like blatent littering.

For us kayakers......

Take the yak off the car, load up tackle boxs, 3-4 rods and depth finder....Guy walks up to me "You going to fish out of that kayak?"

No special delivery to one of the boats out there: Here's your sign!
