Fishing Terms Explained
Catch and Release -
A conservation motion that happens most often right
before the local Fish and Game officer stops a boat
that has caught over its limit.
Hook -
1. A curved piece of metal used to catch fish
2. A clever advertisement to entice a fisherman to
spend his life savings on a new rod and reel
3. The punch administered by said fisherman's wife
after he spends their life savings (see also: Right
Hook, Left Hook)
Line -
Something you give your co-workers when they ask on
Monday how your fishing went over the past weekend.
Lure -
An object that is semi-enticing to fish, but will
drive an angler into such a frenzy that he will
charge his credit card to the limit before exiting
the tackle shop.
Reel -
A weighted object that causes a rod to sink quickly
when dropped overboard.
Rod -
An attractively painted length of fiberglass that
keeps an angler from ever getting too close to a
fish.
School -
A grouping in which fish are taught to avoid your
$29.99 lures and hold out for Spam instead.
Tackle -
What your last catch did to you as you reeled him
in, just before he wrestled free and jumped back
overboard.
Tackle Box -
A box shaped alarmingly like your comprehensive
"first aid kit". The difference is that a tackle
box contains many sharp objects, so when you reach
in the wrong box blindly to get a Band-Aid, you
soon need more than one.
Test -
1. The amount of strength a fishing line affords
an angler when fighting fish in a specific weight
range.
2. A measure of your creativity in blaming "that
darn line" for once again losing the fish.Androgens Order
Forgive your enemies, but never, ever forget their names.
The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but never forget.
