Was a bumpy ride out started to drop lines at 730am. The first thing that happens I drop the container of worms all over the floor of the boat grr? I get that mess cleaned up and get lines in then slam my knee off the console ? while I was crying in pain the boat got array and ended up tangling a couple lines ? then as I was untangling the mess I lost my balance and ended up embedding a hook in my thumb ? Finally after all that all lines in the sonar is lit up but no takers. I'm thinking to myself wtf did I do to deserve this shit luck. Then my nephew says hes hungry and going to have a snack. I got my eyes on the sonar I turn around to look at lines and to my demise he starting peel back a fkn banana ? I made him throw that bad luck charm over board and not even take a bite. I went on to explain to him the folklore about bananas on a fishing boat. He laughed and said that's bs and didn't realise I was so superstitious which I am not but nothing else could explain the shit luck we were having. Anyway within ten minutes of getting rid of that damned thing every rod started firing . We went 9 for 13 within two hours until we got blown off the water. We were in 40 to 50 fow running baits down 30 to 35ft. The hot rod was the 30 jet with bbq chicken harness out the shoot but all rods fired on dipseys with watermelon and nascar harnesses. Here's a pic of banana boy holding a couple up. I guess the moral of this post is NEVER BRING BANANAS out with you fishing that old folklore is true ?
