Location: Contrarian Island | fishing with EA got me thinking about what we all say when we hook one...after hearing EA say "I'm ON!" a few times today I had to think what I say...I think most of the time I simply say "Fish!"
what do you say when you hook one...??? |

Location: Marshfield, WI | I think I just say "Got one!!!" or sometimes I let the fish speak for me when it jumps. I remember once this year, I was fishing with a new partner. I had a musky hit out of nowhere on the first turn of the figure8. I set the hook and tried hitting the thumbar to release line. My friend looks over and says, "Why didn't you tell me you had one on??"

| I prefer brevity: "There."
-"His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into that whole brevity thing." |

Location: Stevens Point, WI | Usually when I set the hook, my partner knows that something is up! Because the boat usually moves in some way. But otherwise it's got one. |

| GOTTUM! with a grunt or so when Im slamming hooks home. Its like your body is trained to spit out the same words when this happens, I never say anything different, that I remember anyway  If one comes un-pinned, then, there is a variety of things I say  |

Actually I think I said "There you go" on the big Eagle fish. Then came the obscenities, followed by the shaking and quiet sobbing.

| Its always FISH whether it be a follow, a strike, or Esox50 stealing fish from people that get stuck in trees
I just love hearing myself say it because in a few seconds that time we all love can errupt at any second. The suspense of a follow and the mayhem of a fish crushing your bait on the second turn of the figure 8.

"I don't say anything but my nipples get rock hard."
LMAO! Do you at least keep both hands on your rod??? haha

I never knew I said "I'm on" until yesterday |

Location: Brookfield, WI | Ranger, I assume they pop out so violently that your fishing partner can hear the Gore Tex shell crinkle, and knows it's time for the net.
Up at Eagle, we yelled v@g!na for follows. Don't ask me why. Darcy the guide seemed to enjoy it. He invited us over to his house that night, and we got drunk drinking Hiram Walker's Special Old.
Between the Special Old, and losing the big v@g!na, I was worthless the next day.
Disrespectful to the ladies I know, but unfortunately true. I apologize.

Location: Pewaukee, Wisconsin | Most of the time it comes as a good grunt.
The less words after the grunt the better because its a bigger fish. Small fish come with a short grunt while setting the hooks and a "got one" soon after.
A good fish will have you loaded up and not much will be said, you will feel it in the boat. |

| Initially upon setting steel out of my mouth flows some un-interpretable screams, snorts, wheezes, hoots, and holllers, which most certainly are heard for miles. Followed by "oh yeah baby, nice fish" (any where between 28-46 inches) "get the net". The netting process can be the most difficult and stressful for my partners as I am excitedly saying "here she comes, get her in, get her in" once her head and sprakling slimey body is guided safely in the "hoop with strings" I do a few laps in the boat, jump around like Mary Lou Retton and exchange painfully strong high fives. After the successful release I grab a pull from the flask and put a fresh Grizzly Chew in because throughout the entire exciting musky catching process I swallowed the one I had during all the comotion..!
Man re-enacting this scene and the dramatization has gotten me so pumped I gotta go soak a sucker while I watch my boys play on the beach!

Location: Maple Grove, MN | Depends on the size of fish:
- Small fish = "There's one"
- Medium fish = "Got a decent one"
- Large fish = "BIG FISH - GET THE NET!!!!"
- Massive fish = "&@!^#%#$$#!@&^" (After they get off. ) |

| "There's one" |
