so true.. catch a 5lber and by the time you get home it’s a 10lber.June 17, 2012 at 11:36 pm #1076553Try fishing with me once. The knowledge is in the experience, young grasshopper.
June 17, 2012 at 11:54 pm #1076562I fish alone for many reasons.. the main one is nobody wants to go fishing with me.. all my friends would rather be on the couch playing playstation.
June 18, 2012 at 12:04 am #1076568Over the years be it hunting or fishing, I can depend on myself. About 20 years ago I got stood up for the last time due to my partner getting out of the bar extra late. Very frustrating when 8 am rolls around and you have been waiting for thhe past three hours wondering where they are.
Anyway those days are long gone and I couldn’t be happier.

June 18, 2012 at 12:44 am #1076576because my 2 best fishing partners have passed away and my 2 sons live more than a hour away! also when I am prefisin I don’t always go to fish,I’m looking and trying new things and most other people want to catch fish when they go! Also I am a service tech so my schedule gets real messed up sometimes and I just leave when I can with no planing
StanJune 18, 2012 at 1:35 am #1076587(1)Mainly because I don’t really care if I catch fish or not….(2)anybody I take with me expects me to put’m on fish….(3)I enjoy the quiet. The cell phone gets turned off and the radio’s never on- -jerr
June 18, 2012 at 2:01 am #1076592Because women expect a guy to bait thier hook and take the fish off, absolutely won’t help clean the fish…Don’t even want to stay out all night, even when thier biting good.

Not to stray away from the original post but I hope MsTrumar doesnt read this quoted comment.
She does all that her self and I have to darn near knock her out to get her OFF the water even after dark and even when fishing is SLOW.
Am I right BK ?
June 18, 2012 at 2:26 am #1076599Same with my bride, couldn’t ask for a better fishing partner jerr

THAT is FUNNY! Although I would NEVER admit it in public!
Baiting the hook, taking the fish off, going in early…not a bother at all. IF THAT’S ALL IT TAKE TO GET MY FW OUT I’M ALL OVER THAT!
So right Jeff. But Mary doesn’t fit the mold of normal when it comes to fishing…you lucky dog.
Seeing as it’s fathers day I’ll go on to say that in 4 years I’ve never fished alone.
Happy Fathers Day Dad!

haha, sounds like someone has been out fishing with my sister… not all of us women are like that.
June 18, 2012 at 11:10 am #1076642I fish alone a lot but I don’t really like to but it just ends up that way. I have many fishing friends but most of them have their preferred species. My sons are not old enough yet to go out late at night. My wife is not a fishing person unless the boat comes with a a restroom on board. I dislike fishing with someone who needs constant supervision.
June 18, 2012 at 12:58 pm #1076659Most times when I see a guy fishing alone I just think, poor guy, he must be a real corn hole!

SO not true. There are times where I like being with the guys or gals fishing. Other times, depending on my mood I could spend 10 hours on the water alone with just me & my thoughts. I love it!!!
June 18, 2012 at 4:07 pm #1076711I fish alone because my friends are to lazy to get up early and go, or their wives have things for them to do, or they have to go to soccer, or they show up late. I’d rather go alone than listen to all the excuses.
Plus…I’m probably a corn hole.

Don’t get me wrong….I fish alone alot myself
June 18, 2012 at 4:11 pm #1076713“why do guys fish alone?”
I cant make sense out of your question. Fish alone. Fish with one other person. Two other peope. What in the world difference is there?! Sounds like you’re trolling.
June 18, 2012 at 4:12 pm #1076714I fish alone a lot of the time because a large portion of my trips are spur of the moment – with no notice to line up a partner.
Also – with the hectic pace of life in general – fishing alone is a big wind-down time for me……a good time to recharge the mental battery.
Also – I’m prolly a corn-hole.
