clasic fishing phrases

[oldboot]

I was just looking at another thread and it occured to me that any presenter worth his salt has a hand full of stock phrases.

Then there are those that you definitely would not hear in the media.


there is a guy on the rapala video who has a few that he uses all the time.

Pliers out!

OOH thas a big one.

lets get him back in the water.



then there is my sisters husband.

often in reference to sea snakes, stone fish, stingrays & the like.

Not in the boat, not in the boat.

when a little more agitated, usualy in relation to some large teeth with a shark or crock attached

Cut him off

Give me the knife.

Where the @$#& knife.



cheers

one of my group of fishing friends standard phrases when someone hooks up is "do you want me to get the knife". meaning its just too big and you shouldn't waste your time trying to land it. better to cut it off now.

"I'm fishin" if someone hooks up.

"good twangage" as the braid twangs on hookup

[NAGG]

Do these have spines ...... Nah mate! , just watch the spikes (just when he picks it up)

Git the gaff ...! Everytime a decent hookup is made

Terrafirma! ..... when someone snags up or hooks a port jackson or wobbygong shark
Ah ... Elnesto ( when someone gets a birds nest) or I heard that!
Followed by ......Do you want the scissors ?


I'm sure .... i'll remember some more

My father-in-law's reply to a mate of his enquiring if he could borrow the boat ... " Two things I don't lend, my boat and my wife"

[BR65]

"trollins cheatin" when one of the boys gets a nice fish dragging plastic around

"do you want the knife?" when the crew snags up a $20 barra lollie (only said if its his lure, not one of yours he has "borrowed for a bit")

"where is the knife?" when that same crew member hooks up

plus multiple sledges to rude to print here lol

A funny one that was birthed when I was fishing with a mate up north and he decided to fish with a 100lb handline and no gloves and proceeded to hook onto a big cod which took off at a rate of knots.All I heard from him was 'burnies!!! burnies!!!' as smoke poured out of his hands!!!! He got the fish though.We used that one a bit after that when we happened to be thumming the spools on our baitcasters feeding line to barra etc taking liveys and all of a sudden they would take off and you get the old thumb burn!!

The main two ive used over the years is i just got "SMOKED" by an "UNSTOPABLE" ...

[Lucky_Phill]

" don't pull the plug out "... snagged on bottom

" done me again ".... AJ fishing

" That's not a fish "... knowing you have a better one on

" kazoinkered "..... big fish/ unstopable

[rob tranter]

I've got a mate (yeh I know it's hard to believe), but anyway his most fave is
"I'm on"

But when the fishing is slow, he uses "Oh Rexy Boy you've done it again" normally followed by "oh F@#k I lost him".

There's usually a few "oh", then "sh!t I missed him".

Me I usually say "yahoo" or "it's about time"

Nothing to exciting
