Thread: Banana,s on Boats

    Banana,s on Boats

    just a poll on the old fisherman,s tale of taking banana`s onto a boat ??? its bad luck and you will not catch any fish
    i have never tested the theory for offshore fishing mainly because of the distant, cost and you only get limited weather to fish offshore.you need all the luck on your side because of the current wind and depth without having to prove the banana theory one way or the other.
    so far, no crew has pulled out a banana to eat while on the boat.

    Apparenty stems from the days when bananas and other fruit were transported on the one vessel,bananas have a gas that ripen other fruit, and this sent fruit off, in transit.
    Try it at home, place a banana on top of an apple, and see the results.

    Come on guys!
    It's like going to one of those clairvoyants - you can convince yourself of something if you really want want to believe it!
    Same with the bananas, if after going out fishin' for the day you didn't catch any/many fish - why not blame the banana!
    Fair suck of the saveloy (banana).

    caught some nice fish while chewing on a nana and or a boiled egg, always seems to be the food that can choke ya when the line goes off, had the same with a ham sandwich, food is food regardless and yes certain foods do ripen others, as for others saying no nanas on my boat, then i reckon their boat wouldn't be worth fishing on if u cant take ya food, plus i'm not into superstitions as it is :a belief, conception, act, or practice resulting from ignorance, unreasoning fear of the unknown or mysterious, morbid scrupulosity, trust in magic or chance, or a false conception of causation, Leaves ya mind open to satan eh. .
    Ignorance being the main word here. imho
