Stereotypes

I often feel I'm not your average sea angler... ..so I thought I'd post to see what other people think.

Is there a stereotype?

Do you fit it / not fit it, and why?

there are two types of sea angler..

1: the mackerel basher
&
2: the tackle tart.

ive a feeling youve a lot of time your hands :lol:

say you get the same spread of society as with anything else

well i fit quite niceley into the tackle tart section. what about you steve? you dont have enough new stuff to be a tackle tart. i take it your a mack basher so :lol: :lol:

only 1 catagory i know off...anglers and non anglers... id describe mac bashers as non anglers...but thats just me...

Part tackle tart and part fool here. Probably the same thing really, but i am parted with my money all the time for stuff that i "really" need.

i was going to say glorified pollock basher.. but you have advanced from that :lol: :lol: :lol:


i also forgot to mention the third type of fisherman...

the fine weather fisherman...only shows up when its not raining/windy/cloudy/cold

How about the pleasure angler, (me) the fish to feed angler (Macky bassher) and the match angler (serious s***)

Thanks mods I should know better.

the pleasure angler are usually also fine weather fishers.. (when was the last time you fished in a gale)

the fish to feed are usually macky bashers aka glorified pollock bashers( not to be mistaken with C&R glorified pollock bashers)

and match anglers.. well you show me one thats not a tackle tart :D

Cant say I've been out in a gale lately but all last winter and the winter before..............Some of the best sessions can be in the crap weather.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned good anglers and bad anglers

lucky anglers and unlucky anglers :wink:

It would make a great documentary: "When good anglers go bad!"

i'd go for opportunist or not. I'll go fishing whenever i can, when family,fiance, football, tides, weed, weather, rugby, pub say i can't. that's it for me anyway
