Back to superstitions, only mine are absolute facts.[]
1. NEVER wear your fishing hat except when fishing. When you're done, put on a non-fishing hat!
2. Fish-on on the first cast or first-drop is very bad luck for the rest of the day.
3. NO BANANNAS ON THE BOAT! Charter captains in Florida and elsewhere will make customers paying over $1,000 get off the boat if they have them. I learned the hard way, so I now will too! (boat fires, disappearing fish, equipment malfunctions, etc)
4. "One more cast" means enough casts to catch one more fish.
End the day with a fish-on, and the next day will start with a fish-on on the second cast. (Not the first, see #2 above!)
