I think this is the funniest thread I have ever read. I think you guys got them all. The only one you missed might be:

You walk up to a prime piece of holding water and cast a no more than twice. Move up river and repeat.

True cracker story: First names were changed to protect their privacy. LOL

From the Arkansas Democrat Gazette:

Two local men were seriously injured when their pickup truck left the road and struck a tree near Cotton Patch on State Highway 38 early Monday morning. Woodruff County deputy Dovey Snyder reported the accident shortly after midnight Monday. Cletus Johnson, 33, of Des Arc and Clem
Wallis, 38, of Little Rock are listed in serious condition at Baptist Medical Center. The accident occurred as the two men were returning to Des Arc after a frog-gigging trip.
On an overcast Sunday night, Cletus's pick-up truck headlights malfunctioned. The two men concluded that the headlight fuse on the older model truck had burned out. As a replacement fuse was not available, Clem noticed that the 22-caliber bullet from his pistol fit perfectly into the fuse box next to the steering wheel column. After inserting the bullet, the headlights again began to operate properly and the two men proceeded toward the White River Bridge.
After traveling about 20 miles and Just before crossing the river, the bullet apparently overheated, discharged and struck Cletus in the right testicle. The vehicle swerved sharply right exiting the pavement and striking a tree. Cletus suffered only minor cuts and abrasions from the accident, but will require surgery to repair the other wound. Clem sustained a broken clavicle and was treated and
released.

"Thank God we weren't on that bridge when Cletus shot
his balls off or we might both be dead" stated Clem.

"I've been a trooper for ten years in this part of the
world, but this is a first for me. I can't believe that those two would admit how this accident happened," said Snyder.

Upon being notified of the wreck, Clitoris, Cletus’s wife,
asked how many frogs the boys had caught and did anyone get
them from the truck. (Way to go, Clitoris.)

fyi

Michigan sportsman site has some good Cletus and Clem stories from the book "The Fish of the Thousand Casts". Yes here in the Gls we have the same issue and sense of humor. Good winter reading, something for steelhead and deer camps around the camp fire. Check it out.

I will never be seen with a yellow rod in michigan. LOL

If you only fish for salmon. Nope that don't work, that makes you a snagger? Hell No.

Thinking back to my younger daze..........nope that didn't work. Can't remember.

How about if you plan your fishing trips (to small streams)on what you read on the web the day before!

If you tie your leaders using an improved cinch knot, you might be a cracker.

If you use High Vis line for leader material, you might be a cracker. (Actually found one today)

Then are you a "real" cracker when you use the whitout on the fish itself instead of the photo?

You might be a cracker if if bobber and jig fishing involves the use of bouy ten for a float and a thin wired uncle walts crappie jig with 20 pound test on your yellow danielson trout rod and your 20 year old shakspeare closed face real.

If your name is Ken from Curtis County Florida, your probably a cracker.

Quotes from Ken's Web Page :

"Most of my rod and reel combinations cost less than $50.00 and were bought out of department stores as a set, including the line."

"I'm convinced that the better quality reels are have a better drag system. The drag is smoother and don't jerk as the line is pulled off."

"They keep saying something like, "dad, we don't catch any fish when we go fishing."'


Hey I wonder if Woodsy Wayne fishes with this guy down there?
