Photos with rods in mouth

Hey all was just looking at some photos on the forum and have noticed quite a few photos popping up with people putting the rod in their mouth? It aint cool guys and it doesnt prove anything. If you really want to impress id like to see someone with a 24kg t curve and a tiagra 50 hanging out of there chops...now that would be cool! Hopefully i have set the challenge

They're just trying to post a photo with there fish and the rod they caught it on, nothing wrong with that.. has taken off lately tho

Doubt most people do it to "impress" seeing how squid and skippy aren't really brag worthy.

who says it aint cool??

Sun, 2011-06-12 19:26

LOL!!! I have done it on occasion when i have landed a particularly large fish on light gear and i don't see the problem with it most "shooters" include their rifle in pics next to the animal they have shot, is that not cool as well??  cheers

i dont understand either... i paid for rod holders so commen sence says use them,  i dont need to brag about catches to often because fishing is more theraputic to me, same reason i got out the car scene, to many people waving the compensaiting goodies around.

You feel the need to criticize people's photos, who gives a toss how people want to photo themselves with their catch.

I will have to say I misread the post initially, as I have not seen any photos of people holding fish with their rods in their mouths, then it occurred to me.......

Wow, must have a damn long rod to be able to put it in their own mouth - you must have got the sites you are surfing mixed up.

I dont think Joe M was criticising anyone. It sounded a bit tongue in cheek to me.

Not tongue in cheek - rod in

Mon, 2011-06-13 05:41

Not tongue in cheek - rod in mouth.

But seriously, I don't have a problem with it.  If that's what the fisho wants to do?  Good on em for getting their pics on the site I reckon.

Young guns

Sun, 2011-06-12 20:52

Seems its mostly the young guns doing it, could be with the older blokes their false teeth may not be strong enough to hold on for the time to take the pic.

 

Some one must have told the chap in the pic to put his rod where his mouth is.
