MMM, interesting request, I'll have to think on what it takes not too be a googan. #1 don't put a cig on a bottom rig, cast if off the end into the deep dark blue and say you're king fishing. Next...... _________________ Go Fishing you can't catch them sitting on the couch!!!
If you are reading this forum and have to get the folks in the shack to set you up with tackle then you are probably a googan. _________________ Go Fishing you can't catch them sitting on the couch!!!
If you walk down the pier with your crawfish lures still attached to your prized bass gear, you might be a googan.
Along those same lines, if you have a jitterbug in your tackle box while pier fishing could suggest googanism. _________________ Go Fishing you can't catch them sitting on the couch!!!
if you have to ask how not to be a googan, chances are you are a googan... not that there is anything wrong with being a googan. just watch,listen and learn. you must walk before you run. _________________ "you look so much cuter with something in you mouth" nickelback
Yes, be aware of what's going on around you, trying to make a cast while there's a fella passing behind you with a bowed up rod usually doesn't make many friends and could be considered googish. _________________ Go Fishing you can't catch them sitting on the couch!!!

Hell, I catch Bonito on those things and am damn proud of it! See my pic in the rotation for proof. I'm a googan, he's a googan, she's a googan, we some googans. Wouldn't you like to be a googan, too? _________________ Calvin Martin

If you use a float rig next to Kingfishr with out ever bringing it in or allowing others to fish in peace... you might be a Googan. _________________ Master of the obvious...
Uhhhh, I fish for kings with braid. Have you ever watched #50 PP burn through multiple googan rigs with a big fish on?
have you ever tried to get a tangle undone when a king is hook with braid
if you had you wouldnt be using braid
and why are you using 50lb power pro for kings?
that is rather large
your a googan if you king mackeral fish with braided line [little rods are a diffrent story]
I have used Fireline for years on my King rod. Burns through mono like magic. Come to the new PCB pier Ben and you will see probably 70% of the locals fishing braid on their King reels.
I do believe that last time I fished with Gary Wells he was fishing PP on his rod. Do you consider Gary a googan? _________________
I know braid isn't the preferred line for king fishing, I just like it because it gives me better line capacity on small reels, gives me the ability to horse a fish when need be and it burns through tourist rigs like butter.
Honestly, I've pretty much forgotten how to fish with mono, it's been so long.
It's OK to use a Gotcha. It's NOT OK to stick it in someone's ear. If you try to use a Gotcha in the middle of a bunch of people fishing with cigs, then you are probably a Googan.
if you use braid to fish for king mackarel then you are a complete googan
end of story
and if 70% percent of people on the pier use it then i guess there are alot of googans at that pier

Yep. And we are all better fishermen than you will ever be Ben. _________________

There are alot of googans on every pier and using braid for king... I wouldn't say... that made you a googan. _________________ Can't wait till spring
Set in the way rods in the Pomp hole in March and April is a Googan move.
Jig fish or get out of the way. _________________ I'd rather be Pompano fishing !
I like braid, but a lot of the time it doesn't like me. Wind knots in it are a SOB, it can be hell on gear as well. I like it for bottom fishing b/c of the 0 stretch, and I have it on one Ling rod for the pier (that I don't fish that much) and that's about it. Everything else is gonna b mono. _________________
I definitely see the benefit of using mono for kings, just haven't gotten around to spooling up a reel with it yet. Pretty much everything else gets a flourocarbon leader and braid.
Laugh all you want at the braid on my cobia rig but there aren't too many people who can get it out as far as I can. Marshall would be a likely exception.
