[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 282984, member: 1246"] [FONT=Times New Roman]FISHING TERMS EXPLAINED.......... HOOK: (1) A curved piece of metal used to catch fish. (2) A clever advertisement to entice a fisherman to spend his life savings on a new rod and reel. (3) The punch administered by said fisherman's wife after he spends their life savings (see also, Right Hook, Left Hook). LINE: Something you give your coworkers when they ask on Monday how your fishing went the past weekend. LURE: An object that is semi-enticing to fish, but will drive an angler into such a frenzy that he will charge his credit card to the limit before exiting the tackle shop. REEL: A weighted object that causes a rod to sink quickly when dropped overboard. ROD: An attractively painted length of fiberglass that keeps an angler from ever getting too close to a fish. SCHOOL: A grouping in which fish are taught to avoid your $29.99 lures and hold out for leftovers instead. TACKLE: What your last catch did to you as you reeled him in, but just before he wrestled free and jumped back overboard. TACKLE BOX: A box shaped alarmingly like your comprehensive first aid kit. Only a tackle box contains many sharp objects, so that when you reach in the wrong box blindly to get a Band Aid, you soon find that you need more than one. TEST: (1) The amount of strength a fishing line affords an angler when fighting fish in a specific weight range. (2) A measure of your creativity in blaming "that darn line" for once again losing the fish. [/FONT] [/QUOTE]
