A "New Zealander" - something unstoppable and has every chance of making it home (to NZ) - they always head east.
Breaking out in to the war song "We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when ... but I know we'll meet again some sunny day" Same circumstance as above.
"Water" (with urgency) when land-based and you are about to get crashed by a wave.
"A Dinosaur" - a HUGE Flathead.
this first one started as a joke (long storey)
BANG, I'm on!! = I have a fish on
Yep..hook up = after a stike on a lure, often followed with "nup I've dropped him"
"I wanna hear the scream of the reel!!" = usually said when the fish are slow.
Cheers Dave
Some I'm familiar with:-
a. Tight Lines
b. Don't strike, let him get it down into his intestines
c. Lures catch fishermen, not fish
d. I'm on

Almost forgot what my best mate used to always say when a fish was taking the bait and before he took up the slack, "Get that down your oesophagus".
Louis
"Time fer a sanga" when nothing's taking the bait, usually followed by
"Bloody hell, get the thing" as your rod's heading over the side as you take the wrapping off your sandwich.
A couple from my dad
When we were really young he would cast for us and while handing us the rod would say "there you go, right in to the fish's mouth". It was rarely true.
When releasing an undersize fish "send your mum and dad next time"
And when getting a tentative bite "if you are going to take it, take it properly".
And when he finally hooks up "i've got ya, i've got ya (repeated over and over until the fish is landed).
Regards
Chris
