Re: Do you drink on the water
I didn't before President Obey-me was elected.
Now throw a cold one back every now and then while on the water to ease the pain.

Re: Do you drink on the water
Yes I do. My wife and I always have a couple of them with us on the boat. If the fish are not biting we will pop one open and wham the bite is on. We will usually split the sacrificial beer and that's all. Seems to work very well too.
You ever been hot and wanted a beer then the fish start biting? That's how it started and been that way ever since.

More accurate.Atticus wrote:I drink beers when I fish.

Hey Wevans, are you sure that the decrease in "catchin" ain't just simply due to not seeing double anymore??wevans wrote:Now that ya metion it, my "catchin" aint been so good since I quit drinkin beer last year![]()

Fixed it for you so that it's even more accurate.Atticus wrote:Atticus wrote:I drink beers when I fish AS WELL AS when I'm not fishing.

Re: Do you drink on the water
The boat usually has one for every adult passenger (who imbibe) to have a cold one on the trip in. While fishing were all too busy to even think about it and often forget that there may be one in the drink cooler. Now while cleaning fish I want and ICE cold one

Re: Do you drink on the water
I have no problem with people who do, I just don't normally myself. I get dehydrated too easy, plus beer makes me pee and I hate trying to pee off a boat. Although...........
I went kayaking with my buddy yesterday evening, and he shows up with a couple 20 oz Bud lights to celebrate my recent engagement (I haven't drank in months). We chugged our beers before striking out on the kayaks and let me tell you.....
WHEW!!!!!!!! I will never drink and kayak again. By the time we got back to the beach, I felt like I was going into cardiac arrest. (I also believe that the buzz contributed to me allowing dinner to flop back into the water after I got the hook out)

Re: Do you drink on the water
I drink at home, a party, your house, and I fish on the water. I like to remember most trips I take.
