Default Phrases on the water that have made my face red.

Everyone has done it...
Tell me yours.
Here are a few things I have heard or said innocently and got an answer I didn't expect.
Passing another boat,
"How big is yours?"
or...
"Hold it up so I can see it!"
Overheard on the river from one boat to another with a male and female onboard,

"Did you get any?"
The man shakes his head no...
"Well, did you get any fish then?"

There are lots more, I am just brain dead and tired this morning! I'll remember them through the day...

I may be opening a can of worms here. Please keep this thread um... clean!
I just get a giggle out of some things people say!
Jen

When you and your buddy are shoulder to shoulder drift fishing your favorite river and *he* says "FISH ON!" and not you!

when you ask someone- "you got worms?" and they reply- "yea, but I went fishing anyways!"

To the next real close boat:

"Hey, is that a SAM MICH (or cookie)?"

Reply is : "Yes"

"You gonna eat all that?????"

"Hey, you getting any! (pause) "SLEEP???"

"DON'T make me come over there!" (kidding
of course, or not sometimes) [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Fish says: "just stay out of the nets, dam it!"

Default Re: Phrases on the water that have made my face red.

A few years back was dropping in at the crossover bridge launch on the Nooch. Anyone who knows it knows how tight and bumpy it is for a makeshift launch. Well, had just drove my truck down and saw this guy with a brand new Willie dropping in. He was having trouble, couldn't get the boat to even come close to hitting the shoot to drop boat in. His girlfriend was out guiding him. Well, after about the 5th shot while we were there (a buddy and myself were using our small catarafts), we decided to just drop our boats out and launch around him. Well, we almost died laughing when his girlfriend asked "I thought we were going fishing?". The driver was mighty ticked at this point and said "I'm trying to get the damned thing in, or couldn't you tell?". She floored us when she said "Well isn't the first time you've had a hard time getting it in!" We laughed so hard we were crying.

That's about it, or at least what I can actually post on here.
