Rick D. Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Mike, Come on! The manly rule here is, " No smallmouth under thew measured length of 17" shall not be photographed or reproduced. Man Law #17: No man shall photograph any smallmouth estimated to be under 14" (and subsequently post it on all your favorite fishing forums). Just tell us about it- we believe you. Eric- I recently upgraded to the latest Firefox version, and it comes with this really annoying spell checker that puts a red line under misspelled words as I type them. Smallmouth is one of them....LOL BTW- anyone know how to turn that damn thing off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick D. Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Man Rule #18 When taking a photo of smallmouth the angler may NOT hold the fish at arms length in the foreground to distort the factual size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim bielecki Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Man Law #33: When a close relative fails to make up some hair jigs over the winter for summer time fishing, said relative is condemned to shaving their head for each month of neglect! Man Law #34 When the boat plug is forgotten, a digital picture of the infraction with the boat owner shall be posted on the internet to thwart off repeating offenders.

Tim Smith Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Man Law #34 When the boat plug is forgotten, a digital picture of the infraction with the boat owner shall be posted on the internet to thwart off repeating offenders. Is that in or out of the sinking boat? Love it!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Dells Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 Man law #35 Pertains to old guys wearing neoprene walking on unsafe shorelines, in the case of myself and guys like Gary Lange. Younger anglers wading with older anglers may not laugh when shorelines give way and the old guy dumps into the creek! In the famous words of Pee Wee Herman"I meant to do that!" The younger angler should show heart and help get the old guys head out of the mud! Not laugh at them as they drown! Someday soon your vision will also go to pot, young guy laugh while you can!

Kevin Dells Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 Man law #36 People sponsoring ISA outings are NOT to be held responsible for floods, typhoons, Microbursts,Tornado's or any other acts of nature. If they got to cancel three outings in a row im sure it's not because they have been standing with the garden hose in the river all summer,Mother Nature did it don't yell at me!

Mike Clifford Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 The younger angler should show heart and help get the old guys head out of the mud! Not laugh at them as they drown! Uh huh. I was standing on the deck of a jon boat that had been modified to include a deck like a bass boat. Not stable in the least. I reached out to pick my spinnerbait from a bush on the bank. (No need for details here) Standing in the water, I reached out for my partner to give me a hand climbing back onboard. Instead, he reached for the camera and said "Photo ops before rescue". True story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmallieJonze Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 In reference to Man Law #26...which I am in favor of (including wives). What should the automatic handicap be if you agree to take (gasp) your mother-in-law fishing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Clifford Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 No handicap. If you take your mother-in-law fishing, you've got enough problems already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skjordan Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 #40 Man's Law No Man shall participate in the practice of Line dancing, Celtic step, Hip-hop and the Tango while listening to their MP3 player on the water.
