clasic fishing phrases

[groverwa]

Its on - only to be followed by -its off

It's f@#ked off

Get it into you - its only a hook - my favourite

A couple of classics I remember when being out with a pro crayfisherman and being asked if I was getting any bites - we were in deep water and fishing for Dhuies - and telling him that it felt like a big blowie (toadfish to you easterners) and after he took the line from me said "big blowie be f@#ked" and then pulled up approx 12kg dhuie. Now I knew what they felt like we killed a pig as the saying goes. When we got back after a really good day the skipper asked one of his mates "kill a pig today" to which the other bloke replied glumly "yeah a f@#kin guinea pig"

“Been brokeback boating again” comment from wife when it’s a poor catch.

“When I was a lad” some old timer telling me how they would fill a row boat with tailor on the same spot.

“You brought the wrong bait, its too late in the day, there’s too many boats around and there’s no fish here” usually said by an old timer just before I hook up.

When the deckie has struggled getting the anchor off the bottom or has finally landed a big fish I generally say "Easy as shittin' in bed and kickin' it out with ya feet huh?"

"Is that a Gold Bomber tree", means lures been flicked to far.
"Are you catching Parrot Fish" means lures been flicked to far.
"Thats wood" means lures been flicked to far"
"Tea bag fishing" means lures dangling, after being flicked to far
"Incomming"(said loud) means lure is now out of tree and returning to boat at extreme pace.

"I practice fillet and release" means I'm taking this home for dinner"
