Default How to tell you have angleritis misitis

The other night my wife came down to complain about a noise in the house

It was me casting a sinker across the room with my new walleye rig While watching the hockey game. The odd cast rattled off the bottom of the wall

She told me I was nuts.

She is right you have to put your favourite Wally lure on minus the hooks if carpet hooks are ok if hardwood or tile. You don't want to waste practicing that finness retrieve.

Like my signature says below. I definitely have it. I breathe fishing. I practice fly casting in my living room with a practice rod. If anyone knows a cure, let me know. Pelada trochu, I feel your pain.

ive also noticed some involuntary wrist twitching and the sudden turrets like symptoms of spontaneously yelling, "FISH ON"


you may have angleritis misitis if:

your kids ask you to play fish and they are suprised when you try to tie fishing line to their waist!

I got some pretty odd looks from Neighbors when I was standing in the middle of the road in January seeing how my new bvk flyrod felt casting... It's a very nice rod!!

An 8" Cichlid puts up a pretty good fight. Recomend u leave the lid on at least half the tank.

right on. we run those too. JR tests every new wet pattern he ties in our tank. i've heard some of the fish have had to be landed and released. one even bit one of my daughters feet in the process. unreal. gave in and recently moved the tank into his room. right next to the vise. there's not a room in our house where you won't see a piece of fur or feather with a hook on it.

It's easy to use your own house cat. Much harder to land one of them wild neighbourhood cats.

Guilty, was out practising with my new baitcaster on the complex side walk in front of my place. Worked great until a miss cast sent the rubber practise lure bouncing off the neighbours patio window. OOOPS time to go inside now.
