Default You might be a bass angler if:

1) You have a power worm dangling from your rear view mirror because you think it makes a good air freshener.
2) Your wedding party had to tie tin cans to the back of your bass boat.
3) You call your boat "sweetheart" and your wife "skeeter".
4) Your local tackle shop has your credit card number on file.
5) You keep a flippin stick by your favorite chair to change the TV channels with.
6) You name your black lab "Mercury" and your cat "Evinrude".
7) Bass Pro Shop has a private line just for you.
8) You have your name painted on a parking space at the launch ramp.
9) You have a photo of your 10 lb. bass on your desk at work instead of your family.
10) You consider viennies and crackers a complete meal.
11) You think MEGABYTES means a great day fishing.
12) You send your kid off to the first day of school with his shoes tied in a palomar knot.
13) You think there are four seasons--Pre-spawn, Spawn, Post Spawn and Hunting.
14) Your $30,000 bass boat's trailer needs new tires so you just "borrow" the ones off your house.
15) You trade your wife's van for a smaller vehicle so your bass boat will fit in the garage.
16) Your kids know it's Saturday---Because the boats gone.

I have one more to add. You might be a bass angler if . . .

. . . You go to a birthday party see something like this on the wall, take a picture of it and share it with your fellow bassers here because you knew they would have done the same!

This happened just tonight! This bass moved and sang Jingle Bells and Up on the Rooftop. I kid you knot (mispelling intentional).

1) You yell at your children for being in the pool while your tuning your crankbaits.
2) Your yard sale looks like a outlet store for Bass pro shop.
3) You dunk your steak in carolina lunker sauce instead of A-1 sauce.
4) Your Christmas tree is decorated with spinnerbaits & crankbaits, instead of bulbs & tinsel.
5) You use a livewell net to scoop a beer out of the cooler beside your recliner as you watch your fishing shows.
6) Your mail is delivered to a box at the boat ramp on your favorite lake
7) Your wife wears Kick'n Bass garlic scent & fishnet stockings to get your attention.
10) A identity thief rummages through your garbage and concludes your name is Strike King .
11) You pitch a jig in your bosses coffee cup on your lunch break..

Glad I'm not the only one that does that . Arkie makes a spinnerbait with a mylar skirt that makes a great ornament.

When asked your favorite color, you reply "junebug".
You slow down over every bridge to look at structure in the water.

Guilty as charged.

You take every possible size/color combination because if you leave one at home it will be the exact size/color combination you need.

Yeah or everytime you see any water at all you ask yourself hey maybe somethings in there. Or your hands have a nice chartreuse glow from Spike it all the time on them. Or when you wake up the first thing you think about is wonder how the fishing is.
