I Bragged for years about this place called Crystal Lake and had good luck and for ten years I talked about it and never went back there. When I finally returned with two buddies It was almost DRIED up! They had several garden hoses in there trying to keep it full of water! I was very embarrassed not to mention givin' a hard time for a while after. I don't see how there could be any fish at all in there. Never been out fished by a woman. Don't know any that like to fish. :0)

Yes, I took a girlfriend out to my fishcamp on the Tensaw, she'd never been fishing and always ribbed me about loving it so much. She was all sqeamish about baiting her own hook and possibly breaking a nail at first. So I nosed the boat into one of the spots I know is honey, and after backlashing several times, she got an eight pounder on her first good cast. And proceeded to skunk me, even forgetting her manicure and baiting her own line.
It's tough for a man get outfished by a girl, but when a girl takes a "city" girl, and gets skunked, it's hard to swallow. But she still loves to fish, and I've bested her since. I had her and her fiance up last weekend and she challenged me to another "fish-off". Next time, I'm taking her hunting, I've handled guns my whole life, she's never touched one. Just maybe I can redeem myself.
Btw, some of us girls will step down to a guy when it comes to fishing or hunting or sports, just to appease their egos, it's just too hard for me to do...lol. I won't back down at Texas Hold 'm either, most guys underestimate a female on the card table too (so I haven't had to actually work in over a year), and there's nothing sweeter than proof that girls really DO rock!
Cheer up, now you have to take her again, enjoy the dance.

Bragged about a hot fishing spot in Montauk, Long Island. Catching one porgy (scup) after another. Went to the local marina and told someone about all the fish there. Next day, a commercial guy went there and cleaned the area out of fish. Quite dumb, pays to keep mouth shut about a sweet spot.

Haha!! We gotta teach you guys that just cuz you don't -think- we can fish doesn't mean we can't. We don't necessarily tie our knots wrong or cast funny or any of the other stuff we've all heard, we just do what works for us.
Haven't been completely skunked by my definition of skunked, always been able to have a couple undersize or unwanted fish to unhook. *knocking on wood while she types* Only had total skunks fishing by myself, or with people who invite me... I warn everyone I fish with that I don't bring the best of luck with me on a trip. I guess my subpar luck just jumps to the braggiest person whenever I go with people. Hell, boss didn't catch any fish when I went with him, and I caught the biggest of four fish..... I need to start fishing with people more, maybe I get better luck. ;)

Two nights ago I took my wife with me to one of our ponds (against my better judgment). I gave her an old zebco and hooked a plastic worm on wacky style. I then instructed her to cast near the brush and stumps. After one cast like that she found to be more fun to let it set about two feet deep right next to the boat. She thought the fish looked "cute" as they came up to bite it. She beat me about 15 to 5. That's what you get when all your fishing buddies are busy and you decide to take your wife,lol.

I taught a girl to fish once......it was the last time.
She outfished me about 50% of the time with MY tackle! Talk about adding insult to injury!
LMAO

I know how that goes!! Took some boys to a river to fish, we didn't catch a thing. Next time I took em to a pond where I knew they would at least catch some bluegills.
