    How to out fish your Fishing Partner

    Just wondering what sort of tricks people get up to just to outfish their fishing buddy?

    Some of my old tricks where burning their line, putting nicks in their line, adjusting their drag to as loose as possible and whatever else I could do just to out fish them.

    Would like to hear some of other peoples tricks. This will be interesting
    It's all part of the fishing experience

    pretty sad that you would have to resort to that isn't it? Anyone did that to me and they would be swimming home no questions.

    I out fish my fishing buddies most of the time by working harder than them or by sheer arse.

    haha this will be a good thread, another one is when your at home, camp etc strip about 15m or so of and cut it. now this is the tricky part, wind the line back on (with out and ends sticking out) and see there facial expressions when the cast out

    You must have been pretty desperate Tinn!

    Who cares if you get outfished by your buddy anyway?

    Egomaniacs!

    For us it becomes a competition , but there is no sabotage between mates ,I'm happy to see my mates catch fish even if they do out fish me all the time
    Give a man a fish and feed him for a day , teach a man to fish and feed him for life .

    Re: How to out fish your Fishing Partner

    I normally give the people I take fishing the chance at the first few fish, some times I just sit back and watch my mates have a good time and dont even fish also been known to had rods over with good fish on the other end. But on the other side of the coin had a deckie dive for his knife in <10 degrees water after I accidently threw it in 3 meters of water, told him if he wanted me to get his knife it was staying there (knife was worth over $150). In it to have fun. I,m easily pleased
    cheers

    I try to outfish them with skill if i can .If one of us onto a good fish we fight together and cheer for each other .Its part of the experience on the water with good friends.

    Too keep it tongue in cheek I postion the boat to suit my side of the boat I have a sticker on my boat that states "Skippers Corner"

    Other than that I haven't been that devious yet !

    I'm usually trying to find a feed for them.

    Take them to places where the fish only swim past your side of the boat
