    My Uncle Leonard could catch a fish out of a plowed field. He took me fishing a lot when I was young. When the bite was slow he would say in a real deep voice "Here fishy, fishy, fishy!" Most of the time it seemed to work or at least for a little kid the magic worked. lol He passed of lung cancer when he was 53, I laugh now when I say that when fishing is slow. I've done it with my kids and nephews also, still some magic to it!

    My grandpa always said that. My dad always spit on his minnows. Seemed like it always worked for him.

    I talk to them. This is my favorite from a fly shop on Oahu...Many times have I spoken the unedited word.
