first cast jinx - picture

brushhog · 08-03-09, 11:40 AM

I've heard people say never catch a fish on your first cast... Junior and I hit the water a little before 6AM and my first cast of the day was a Pop-r along the weeds in some very shallow water. Monster blow up! Here is what I landed.

Fished for another 4 hours missed a couple of hook ups and Jr. landed one around 3lbs.. Not a great day, but jinxed, you decide.

Nice fish! I hate the first cast jinx!

p.s. is it just me, or does he look a little like KVD?

It's not just you BB.

Atleast you didn't get skunked

nice fish, but i always thought the first cast jinx only applied to bass, guess not. i was thinking he looks like a young arnold schwarzenegger

Maybe if Arnold and KVD had a baby together

Holy impersonations Batman! Great call!

On the subject at hand, if you actually believe in the jinx (the only one I believe in is the curse of Bobby Layne), then throw out something totally stoopid on the first cast. Like a piece of celery with Rosie O'Donnel's autograph on it

I'm not really sure what to say about the Arnold or KVD things....

But we were bass fishin' and juniors fish was a bass... This one large pond we fish turns up the occasional pike. A year ago junior pulled one much bigger than this....

yeah... it has held true for me the two times i have caught on a first cast. Ever since, my first cast is usually a little 5 foot throwaway cast

Such an item would to too valuable to risk. Autograph value is determined by rarity. There is no way to properly calculate the rarity of a food item that has been handled by Rosie Odonnel and returned uneaten, in fact, such an item likely does not exist.

It's not a girlie manfish.

Hard to argue that!

I wasn't totally jinxed this past weekend. First cast caught a 9 3/4, biggest ever weighed to date, ended up catching about twenty between me and a friend. Thought we were going to have a big fish day, but the rest were 1-2 lbs, had blast anyways.
