Questions to ponder at 4:00 AM on a Tuesday

NaCl · Post by **NaCl** » Wed Mar 29, 2006 4:03 am

1. If bass fisherman don't tell the truth, then when a schizophrenic bass angler hear voices, are they lying to him?

2. Why do we pay 40K for a boat, 30K for a truck, 5K for an assortment of rods and reels, $75 a week to gas up our boats, 2 or 3K in tournment entry fees each year...and then look for "bargain" fishing line?

3. What does "BDO" reeeally mean? Why is there an increase in Sasquatch reported sightings when Gary Dobyns is prefishing Shasta?

4. Who's smarter....the fisherman, who gets lots of sponsors, or the sponsors, who gets lots of free labor and advertising?

5. If Michael Iaconelli screams violently at catching a 2 pound fish, how long would it take for him to have a stroke if he was catching the giant bass on the Delta?

6. Jesus was a fisherman. So, why did the IRS disallow my deduction for fishing expenses as my "religion"?

7. What weighs more, a 10 pound bass on Cooch's scale or a 6 pound bass on a Normark?

8. Why do I get insomnia and pour out this drivel at 3:45 AM?

9. Women can have babies, change toxic diapers, wipe up puke, handle raw meat, deal with "female" issues...why can't they bait a hook?

10. If pros have "secret" baits, how do sponsors expect to sell em?

Oh well, I'll ponder the heavy issues of life in the morning, I'm beat. Good night!

Hey Dean, you really got some good questions there! I read through them and the answer to most of them would depend on the person themselves that are answering them. It would be interesting to see some answers to your questions.

Too long a list for me to complete in one day!

1. I live with a Bass Fisherman. The voices always lie. ("The 13 pounder got away)

2. Yes, you willing pay 40 k for a boat & 30 k for a truck & blow a power head when your wife spends $40.00 on a pair of shoes.

3. Leave Gary alone.

4. Free labor & advertising......Hmmmm

5. The subject of Mike Iaconelli should sink into the deepest lake in the country. We are tired of hearing about it.

6. The IRS should have allowed your deduction because like Jesus, the fisherman, you all "loaf" around too.

7. Not touching this one.

8. Because it's too difficult to pour concrete at 4 AM.

9. Women change toxic diapers & wipe up puke but Choose not to bait a hook much like you Choose not to change diapers etc.

10. There is no such thing as a "secret" bait because Bass fisherman have big mouths & even bigger egos. They can't keep secrets!!

1.Yes they lie...but maybe thats what they want me....erm you to think.
2. I dont the line is the most important part of the trip.
3.If I remember right "big dumb oakie" although I think Gary is very smart he just lovest the ice cream a little much.
4.The fisherman for getting paid for what he loves.
5. Approx. one and a half min.
6. becaus you are no ones messiah?
7. Bout the same.
8.I dont know but I like it.
9. Because its "Gross" duh"
10. They wait for the angler to either win a tournament or say they won a tournament on it...some secret baits are also not from any of the anglers sponsors so they keep it hush hush?
