stop smoking, you'll live longer and catch more fish

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

HAHAHAHA!!!

see earlier thread about butts.

Smokers generally dont know that they stink.
Their olfactory nodes (nose) is burnt out.

Just like the old churchladies with too much perfume..
you stink.

Course I dont smoke and aint caught anything this year...

There is a fine line that seperates a fisherman from a fool standing in water swinging a stick.

will cook for food
...and plugs

Smokin

My wife and I quit years ago after smoking for 25 years years. Just bet her something valuable (wink) and you would be surprised what you can do. It's a bitch but it's worth it, there may not be any fish in the "there after a".

Good luck,
Jack

Smoking

I've never smoked in my life (neither has my wife)and the smell of someone that smokes makes me sick to my stomach
I take one friend out on my boat all the time and he smokes quite a bit.
He goes to the back of the boat and smokes there thinking that makes a difference, like the way people go outside their house or work place to smoke and then come back inside and they don't stink.
My Question,

Is it wrong to tell people you take out on you're boat to leave the butts in their car before getting on the boat?
Same thing goes with the damn cell phones They drive me friggin nuts ringing all the time, we have nextels so 2 waying is a lot more frequent

No smoking in my Jeep Raider Ron and I got no problem telling someone so....once we are on the beach it is not my concern (I just pray they are down wind). Personally, I can't stand it myself.=

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

definatly wash your hands after you smoke and before you touch any of your bait/line/reel etc. carry some mud in a small bucket or something to really grind your hands to get off that smell.

work hard, fish hard and die happy!

I'm a chewer and have many times wondered if the tobacco residue on my fingers/ skin has any type of negative impact in fish being attracted to my eels. But a few years ago I started this weird tradition of spittin chew juice on my eels, and it seems to not have affected it much that I can tell. My secret sauce.

Ooops.......sorry......

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

If it's your boat, anything you decide is acceptable. Just let your buddy know before he arrives so that he can decline if needed.

Best regards,
Roger
