Too many count every fish, only keepers count in my book. I like the stories like, "we caught 85 but only kept a dozen of the bigger ones" Clickers work great but I always forget to click and end up counting again anyway. I can tell about how many are in the live well by listening when one gets tossed in. If I hear it hitting "meat" I know there are close to 40 in there.

In lakes where you don't have to keep all caught I don't really keep up with how many we caught. I do keep up with how many are in the livewell.  But, yeah, if you ask how many we caught individually I know how many I caught and kept. It's a guy thing to know if he is outfishin' his partner or not. "A guy thing" huh? Then guess I'm a guy.

Nothing makes a fish bigger than almost being caught.

They try and try to train me to be a more sensitive, politcally correct person and I still carp it up.  Thanks for catching that one. Ms Fisherperson.

I like to keep up with the total but the number in the live well is the most important. Get yourself a clicker, it'll keep you out of trouble. On the other hand I haven't needed a clicker lately or even more than 1 hand....

You got that right, cropietx! Also, the best day of the year to go fishing is YESTERDAY! "Should'a been here YESTERDAY!" "They were hittin' like crazy YESTERDAY!" "We limited out YESTERDAY!" The story of my life! Geez!
