Somebody needs to say "here fishy fishy", or "we want the fishes that are so delicious". I also like to wear a North Carolina Tarheel hat.

Dip the Net.
Throw in the apropriate amount of change in the water, ie. for a 30 pounder a quarter and a nickle. For a Coho, maybe a nickle and a couple pennies.
Sing to the tune of Rawhide - "Trollin' Trollin' Trollin, keep that Herring Rollin', Raw Fish, Get 'em down, Bring em up, Raw Fish"
Beer, lots of Beer.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

I like to walk under some ladders, break a couple mirrors, run over a couple black cats, and rub bananas all over myself before I fish. Of course, all the bad luck that brings to me is magically rinsed away by listening to Angus on the way to the river.

When tying my knots, 7 wraps for hooks. Don't know why, just does not feel right to have more or less. Went out on Sammamish with Mike C. He brought his shirt....I caught the fish again. I think I may have to have Mike wear a salmon shirt every time I go out.... :p

1. Always wet wade if it's over 60 degrees out.
2. Three hats always in car; wool stocking cap if it's really windy, G.Loomis "Fear no Fish" hat if it's slight wind, or slightly sunny fishing area, cowboy hat if it's raining or really sunny area to fish.
3. If I'm travelling north, then I get a frozen burrito ("The Bomb") at 7-11 in Woodinville. Chow it down with half a thermos of coffee. Hit first available rest area after 45 minutes.
4. Unless at terminal fishery, always drop fish off in bushes, drive car up to it, get in cooler fast. Don't walk down the road with fish in hand!
5. Always pick up corkies you find...especially really, really big clown colored ones that you'll never, ever use. Carry in vest forever.
6. I always wave at cops while on way to river.
7. It is very bad luck to not rely on a hunch and take a cast in a spot or way that you wouldn't normally. It might not result in a fish, but it will surely jinx your next few good spots...
Fish on...
Todd.

When fishin in the boat the net must be put away in its special spot and always, if you drink it or not, have beer in the boat. Other than that if you catch a fish 5's all around. never, never leave a buddy hangin. The fish gods don't like it

One of the three of us must always wear a Big Johnson Fishing Reels shirt. And someone has to go downstairs to take a nap. Works everytime my daughter goes. She goes downstairs, bang! Fish on! Usually her pole!
