For instance, if another boats wants to know how you are doing while trolling past them, they hold out their two arms as if they are asking "how big is your fish"?.....like this....(forgive the artwork

From what I can tell, this essencially means..."How's she go'in bye? Any luck?"
Now I've seen several different responses to this, none of which I am 100% of what it means.
Does anyone know if there there is an "official/unofficial" set of hand signals to communicate on the water? I don't fish the big water much, so this is new to me. We usually just yell when we're 100ft or so from another boat and there are no main motors going.

Let me know, and if there is or is not, perhaps we can start another little project to document it, pass the "word" (or signals in this case), and have our own On Water Language. I think that would be pretty cool.
What do you think?
