So I was talking to a friend the other day, and this came up. I will start: When people call fish "chromers" is one of mine, another is when the word EPIC is used. So much epicness these days!

“Dude.... it cut red!”
“CHROMER!” when it’s clearly NOT.
Westport 20 (actually 12# ocean king)
Orygun 20 (actually a 12-14 pound steelhead)
Orygun 30 (actually a 20# king)
Mulkey 40 (if Buzz posts it, hey, it must be true)

"It's in the mouth!" is always a good one.
What bothers me more than what I hear, is what I don't.
"Mind if I fish through?"
I'd love to hear it or something of the sort more often. More and more people just plug right through, row right over, cast or even worse drop anchor into water being fished by another boat or bank angler. It makes me extra happy when I'm on the bank and a boat angler does it. Guides are no exception to this, certain ones in particular do it on the regular.

The first thing people automatically say when they don't know is "Where'd you catch it at?"
