Superstitions

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Superstitions

Post by esoxseeker »

Anybody have any superstitions on the water? If i dont see at least 1 loon and 1 crane on the lake, i know i'm in for a long day. I'm not really superstitious, but its becoming that way.

when I fish I see tones of them so I guess it depends on what side of the fence you on when it comes to superstitions. But long days without a bite are the common place for Muskie hunters :)

I always dip my net in the water before I
ever wet a lure! Dumb-eh?
Oh yeah and I've got to have my
grubby old fishing hat!

I'm not a superstitious guy but one of my buddies is and insist that even bringing a net means disaster. Of course he changes his mind once a 40" er comes boatside.

As for myself, (read no further Wolfe), I think it's probably good luck to mow down a black cat. :lol:

That's what I forgot to do on the weekend, I usually wet the net also. And my second superstition is not to enter a tournament with Joco if he insist on bringing a banana for lunch.haha

haha, yeah i agree w/ the net n camera stuff! but i always have to have my lucky hat on, but leaving the camera / net behind is just stupid. b/c you'll definately be kicking urself in the butt when you loose a hog do 2 superstitions! p.s. does anyone else find that when u say "ok, last cast", it lasts about 50... because the other 49 arnt satisfying ? just curious !
