Co-Angler Tips

Don't Go Bananas

I just completed a 2 day run on the FLW Tour fishing Lake Norman. There were a lot of fish caught this week and unfortunately my 10 pounds only allowed me 105^th place. After day 2 of the tournament I had to chuckle about a funny thing that happened. We all know about the superstitious nature of anglers, and most of heard that bananas are bad luck on a boat.

Don’t Go Broke Fishing

Most of us have been there, and few want to be there again. A review of the monthly bills shows that the electric bill must wait another 2 weeks in order to buy school supplies or pay the late mortgage. Looking over the options, debt consolidation or mortgage refinancing may appear to help. With enough equity, you can reduce your monthly outlay to creditors and still have money left over for groceries and emergencies.

My 2 Cents

You’ve heard stories about cotillion ladies training their young women on the finer points of etiquette. This article is meant to help you with the finer points of boat etiquette. Fishing with many of the professionals on the tournament trail allows me to hear about co-angler horror stories. Believe me…for every horror story you have about a pro, a pro has twice that about bad co-anglers. Spending a day on a boat with a stranger forces you to put up with someone through bad weather, bathroom emergencies, hunger and many other physical stresses. Sometimes you are lucky enough to draw someone who you can befriend and who can help you through it. Other times you draw someone who will grate on every last nerve you have. Either way, you better come prepared to put your head down and catch fish, or you have wasted to very reason you started out that day.
