I am with RIJimmy......when I am fishing I am for the most part all business.....though I do on occasion get a little fun streak in me and have a few laughs with my buddies! When I am fishing there is not much room for talking.....talking is for after the fishing is done!

Slingah knows someone who might fit the bill though!

I agree, fish first and talk later.

Of course there's also the "misery loves company" angle, but if I'm not having a miserable time, why would I want someone else to bring me down?

I try to limit my converstion to small talk and passing on tips to those that have been less fortunate catching ANYTHING.
We all know how we jate getting the skunk, particularly during the fall run.

Six years ago this time of year I tried talking to this big miserable jerk of a man who I had been seeing on my local rockpile during some great daytime blitzes. He basically didnt want to hear anything I had to say...and I walked away thinking what a d*ckhead!!!....his buddy Joe was okay though...

.....then I started seeing him down the cape in this old jeep ( I think he was following me ).....well, its a small community...just be careful who you start talking to on the beach

I agree when i'm fishing I value the time just like when i'm with my family and don't want to get into a long conversation with someone.But here is a guy who can't stand to see people fishing near him understandable.He comes 10 feet away from me this morning and cuts my casting area in half and has the balls to treat me like I invaded his space what a jerk. I don't like when someone comes into my area when i'm fishing either but as long as they are fairly nice and asks if I mind I don't have a problem with it this time of year there is plenty of fish to go around anyway.If this guy was younger he would have been swimming.
