jim45498 Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 You get a lure just right and you want to get down on the floor on your back and go around in circles just like Curley on the 3 Stooges.

rlcam Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 1.When it takes you five trips to carry lure making gear in when you get to work (I do all mine at work:whistle:). 2.When a short white man(with straight hair) buys a comb made for Fros.... 3.When you lock your doors on your old work car,not to keep someone from stealing "it" but to keep them from stealing the baits you just painted at work (which are probably worth more than the car). 4.You put off getting new brakes on your car in fear it will get into your lure/paint money. 5.You buy just enough gas to get you to work because you need to stop by WalMart and buy D2T 6.If you fear your job may be in jeopardy if the boss sees all those spray cans at work,but you take them any way. 7.When the bathroom sink at work looks like this...

CA Delta Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 when you wake up @ 2:30 in the morning after having a nightmare that your hook hangers that you hand bent, keep sticking out of the side of your lure while your trying to epoxy your two halves together. Then you go on-line to order some more hinge materials, because you can't fall back asleep. Riverman, great topic. keep um coming....

keith combs Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 I think this might be on the same line as what RiverMan posted but here it is, while your wife is in the hospital you eye the tubbing that the doctor is using to give her oxygen and ask the doctor if you can have it when the wife is released.LOL, I did get a funny look from the doctor on that one, then had to explain to him what it was for. Wife was embarrassed, doc even laughed at this request, but did let me have it. I have let my wife read all of the posts on this thread so she can see that I'm not crazy, doing things like all of you have posted. I don't think it helped she still thinks I'm crazy.

Birdman Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 When your mistress, never the wife, realizes she is not your only love. When you are not sure if it is safe to fart with all these opened chemical spread out on the bench. When you give a friend a hand made bait even though he doesn't fish because it easier than going shopping. When you are on a first name basis with old bitties at the fabric store.

RiverMan Posted February 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 (edited) Your wife asks you why there was a $100 charge to Wal-Mart for something called "Devcon". You can honestly write off the taxes on half your house because it is now a lure factory. This includes the kitchen, a bedroom, half the family room, and all of the garage. You give a friend a ride in your vehicle and it takes you two minutes to clean the lures, hooks, molds, and various other lure building tackle off the passenger seat before they can safely get in. You write off 10,000 miles per year for "trips to the pond to research lures"............and this is a conservative estimate!

MTfishingrods Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Your Cat, dog, and Daughter all were accidently hooked in the same night. The cat must have got into some lures laying out and dragged them onto the floor and then all over the house. Then the dog managed to find a couple. Then while walking to the bathroom in the middle of the night the daughter managed to find one with her foot. Not only did she hook herself but she managed to sink both trebles past the barbs into her foot. I spent over an hour pulling lures out of people and animals at 3:00 am. The wife was not amused one bit. Now she thinks there need to be rules in the lure room like no lures left out on the work bench. I say no cats allowed in the lure room would be much better. I cant wait till my shop is done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mossy maker Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 The dog gets a hair cut because you ran out of marabou for popper tails and are dying to finish that cool new popper you just made. Your wife is bored sick, tired of, and just can't understand the big deal of you talking about Walmart no longer having Devcon. You drive all over the area trying to find water that isn't frozen to test baits. mossy maker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazmail Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 You buy a bunch of flowers - just to get that 'chrome' Mylar foil, that must certainly look spectacular on your latest bait.pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
