    Alright ..who does it? Talking to the bass/fish you catch

    Darn near every fish I catch I'm saying "you better not come off" or "dont do that......stay down" etc. Most everyone I know does the same thing. Kinda funny.

    Is there anyone that doesn't?

    Like this? (Had to censor it). It’s a painting at a fly shop outside of Honolulu.

    When I catch a little one I tell them to come back when they've grown up.

    Don’t say anything to a fish I’ve caught, but give them a mouthful when refusing to bite.

    I will often thank them for letting me catch them.
