WEBVTT - Ep. 57: Drunk and Disorderly Pastors 0:00:06.480 --> 0:00:09.120 Did not freshen up my tetan shot. And it's been 0:00:09.160 --> 0:00:11.200 three years my jaw has not locked, so I think 0:00:11.240 --> 0:00:14.280 by now I'm fine. He pulls like he is trying 0:00:14.320 --> 0:00:16.280 to like pull a young girl out of a well, 0:00:16.640 --> 0:00:18.959 and the sinker hits the bottom of my boat, and 0:00:19.040 --> 0:00:22.520 it sounded like a shotgun go off. So when Amazon 0:00:22.640 --> 0:00:26.080 drones start delivering groceries and spying through your windows, their 0:00:26.120 --> 0:00:28.800 wings might look a whole lot like fish fins. And 0:00:28.880 --> 0:00:33.240 this little baitcaster just disintegrated, and I just blurted out, wow, 0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:38.600 how about this in piece of ship. Good morning, degenerate anglers. 0:00:38.600 --> 0:00:41.640 Welcome to Bent the Fishing podcast that definitely told the 0:00:41.680 --> 0:00:44.680 inappropriate joke at dinner in front of your socially conservative 0:00:44.680 --> 0:00:49.479 and easily offended uncle. I'm Joe Surmelli Les guilty uh, 0:00:49.600 --> 0:00:52.360 and I'm I'm consistently shocked at how easy it is 0:00:52.400 --> 0:00:56.120 to offend people these days. Like there was a time, 0:00:56.200 --> 0:00:58.600 and I'm not talking like way back in the day. 0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:02.240 I'm talking about time not long ago, when if I 0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:06.199 was making someone uncomfortable or offending someone, I was probably 0:01:06.240 --> 0:01:12.160 doing it on purpose. But early two thousands issues. But now, man, 0:01:12.480 --> 0:01:17.160 now everyone's so angry and mistrustful of everyone else. That 0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:20.880 we're like all listening to each other differently. I think. 0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:23.160 I think it's a different way of listening. Instead of 0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:28.120 listening to understand what another person is saying, we're listening 0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:31.400 to see if we can pick out clues about which 0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:34.640 side of the cultural divide the other person sits on, 0:01:35.560 --> 0:01:38.119 and if we hear, if we hear evidence that they're 0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:42.319 one of them, one of whoever we consider the bad people, 0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:46.160 then we we appose the whole interaction differently, like as 0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:48.840 if there are enemy we we just we start dissecting 0:01:48.880 --> 0:01:51.800 their speech for anything that we can latch onto in 0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:54.680 order to paint them in the most negative like possible 0:01:54.720 --> 0:01:58.240 and hopefully ruin their lives forever. Yeah yeah, I mean 0:01:59.080 --> 0:02:02.200 the innocent and an accidental social faux pa. It's just 0:02:02.280 --> 0:02:05.240 it just kind of no longer exists, right, Like we're 0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:09.040 like we're all constantly under arrest and anything you can say, 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:10.919 uh will be held against you in a court of 0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:14.079 public opinion. And just so we all understand each other, right, 0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:17.680 I'm not talking about like overt hate speech, for for 0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:19.960 God's sakes, you know what I mean? Our comments like 0:02:20.000 --> 0:02:24.720 that intentionally demean or dehumanize anybody that that ship has 0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:27.840 never been cool. I'm talking about just honest and innocent 0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:31.040 slips of the tongue, like those times when your mouth 0:02:31.120 --> 0:02:35.200 moves before your brain can edit for context, um or 0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:37.160 what used to be called sticking your foot in your mouth, right, 0:02:37.200 --> 0:02:40.119 which I mean for if we're being honest based on 0:02:40.120 --> 0:02:43.120 on response, we've gotten to a few select pests segments 0:02:43.120 --> 0:02:45.440 on this show. Um, we've we've put our foot in 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:49.080 our mouths here on Bend a few times, absolutely absolutely, 0:02:49.080 --> 0:02:51.800 and we have at least tried to own in a 0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:55.359 tone for those publicly when we do them. And and 0:02:55.400 --> 0:02:58.320 as someone who who speaks to a lot of people, 0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:01.079 you know, in a big format for at least part 0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:03.640 of my living, this is something I think about a 0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:06.720 lot because it's kind of always there on your mind, 0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:08.799 you know. But anyway, we're we're not We're not actually 0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:12.079 going to spend the remainder of the show dissecting how 0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:15.120 or why our culture has become so pitched against itself 0:03:15.320 --> 0:03:18.880 that one ill shaped phrase can lead to social unrest. No, no, 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:21.000 we're not. There are plenty of other podcasts that you 0:03:21.000 --> 0:03:23.320 can turn to for that, Because this is a phishing 0:03:23.320 --> 0:03:25.440 show damn it, and at least in most cases, right, 0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:29.079 phishing boats remain relative safe spaces, places where you can 0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:31.480 just let down your guard a little and be yourself, 0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:35.320 even if that means saying something just monumentally stupid. Um. Yeah, 0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:37.440 you know, on most fishing boats doing so just it 0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:40.680 will result in ball busting. And I believe in the 0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:43.720 power of ball busting among buddies. That is what. It's 0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:46.520 one of the things I do well, just good natured ridicule. 0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:51.080 It's it's how I show affection. Right. If I don't 0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:54.720 make fun of you from time to time, I probably 0:03:54.760 --> 0:03:59.360 don't like you. And people don't get that very concept anymore, 0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:02.400 you know what I mean? Like men, I I make 0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:05.560 fun of you because I love you. And if I 0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:07.880 don't make fun of you, it's because I just don't 0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:10.840 care about you enough exactly. You are not you are 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:13.920 not worth me coming up with some really good freaking material, 0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:16.799 you know, And you're not worth me trying to change 0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:18.680 your mind or your way of thinking by giving you 0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:21.080 a hard time. And you may have noticed, Joe and 0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:23.640 I like you and I we pitch each other ship 0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:29.120 because we respect and like each other. Right, And I 0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:30.760 would say I would move on that. I'd just say 0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:34.880 a solid thirty to forty percent of my interactions with 0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:38.400 my wife, the person whom I love and adore more 0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:41.599 than anyone else on the planet, involve us giving each 0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:45.320 other a hard time. That's what we do. And similarly, 0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:48.640 the absolute best days of fishing are the ones where 0:04:48.640 --> 0:04:51.320 you're free to be an idiot and get called out 0:04:51.360 --> 0:04:54.120 on it by your buddies. I don't mind being wrong, 0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:56.440 and I don't mind being told I'm wrong or being 0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:59.040 made fun of for being wrong, so long is there's 0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:04.840 someone there to lovingly but mercilessly set me straight. Yeah, 0:05:04.960 --> 0:05:07.000 I mean I'm an idiot on a daily basis, and 0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:08.880 I put my foot in my mouth daily. I did, 0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:10.480 And I can think of a million stories of the 0:05:10.560 --> 0:05:13.839 kind of jovial like ball busting that that you're talking about, 0:05:13.839 --> 0:05:17.400 and like, that's what makes fishing so great though, ironically, like, 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:20.279 I think my worst defense is actually a much more 0:05:20.800 --> 0:05:24.479 literal foot in mouth, right, And I like, it's just 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:26.880 what comes to mind first, because it's you know, put 0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:28.520 your foot in your mouth is our loose them. I mean, 0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:30.040 the worst defense I can think of. I was on 0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:32.440 a trip in Key West years ago with a huge 0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:34.120 group of writers. You've been on some of these, there's 0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:35.640 just a ton of people there and you don't really 0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:39.560 know all of them, right, And because you like, these 0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:42.680 are your colleagues in the sort of rarefied air, and 0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:44.919 you don't want to screw that up, you don't. But 0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:46.880 it's also like that guy's been here for five days 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:48.359 and I'm not sure what he does or who he 0:05:48.440 --> 0:05:51.760 works for, but he's here. Um So anyway, so anyway, 0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:53.479 I end I ended up on a boat that was 0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:56.520 going pothole and for Barracuda's Big Ones, right, which is 0:05:56.560 --> 0:05:59.480 insanely fun, something I haven't done in years. Super fun. 0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:02.400 Um And as as those trips tend to go, there's 0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:04.760 often a rotten real sponsor. So the dude I was 0:06:04.800 --> 0:06:07.360 paired with that morning, right, I had seen him he 0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:10.400 was at dinner, but we hadn't spoken, so he just 0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:13.120 introduced himself, told me his name, we shook hands. I 0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:15.279 had no idea who he was. And the first kuda 0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:19.160 I hooked just smoked the reel I was using, I mean, 0:06:19.240 --> 0:06:22.320 just took a ripping run almost to the to the 0:06:22.440 --> 0:06:24.200 end of the line, right, and then the real just 0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:26.839 locked up and there was no turning it right. And 0:06:26.920 --> 0:06:30.040 this was the company's new hot ship in shore series 0:06:30.400 --> 0:06:32.640 that was supposed to be super tough, and this little 0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:37.080 baitcaster just disintegrated and I just blurted out, Wow, how 0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:41.760 about this piece of ship. Yeah, the dude was the 0:06:41.760 --> 0:06:44.400 guy who designed it. He was the designer of the 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:49.560 real and I had no clue. And the captain was like, dude, 0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:53.240 and he awkwardly, This poor guy, he just awkwardly spent 0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:56.000 the rest of that day explaining to me why that 0:06:56.040 --> 0:07:01.919 one must have been a lemon bed for both of you. Yeah, 0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:05.000 it was something not exactly the kind of thing you're 0:07:05.040 --> 0:07:07.000 talking about, but I just like it was an opportunity 0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:10.040 to tell that story. I think that's a good example 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:12.080 of the foot in the mouth. Though you were justified 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:15.520 in that case, and he's wrong. I'm I'm gonna wager, though, 0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:19.560 that you are not going to publicly tell what company them. Now. 0:07:19.720 --> 0:07:21.200 I'm not going to tell you which it was. I'll 0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:27.320 tell you which it wasn't thought fishing. No such problems 0:07:27.320 --> 0:07:28.960 with those reels for me yet. A matter of fact, 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:31.680 I just posted a shot kind of why I don't 0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:33.600 understand why so many people liked it that I'm glad 0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:35.680 they did. But I posted a shot on Instagram of 0:07:35.760 --> 0:07:40.000 my my neon green inception SZ just all gunked up 0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:43.440 right with two seasons worth of just duck weed and 0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:46.880 mung from snakehead fishing. And I haven't had a problem 0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:48.960 with that real yet. I haven't cleaned it. It's still 0:07:49.000 --> 0:07:51.760 doing its thing despite just like the layers of caked 0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:56.280 on goop no there, I'd say, they're like, they're like 0:07:56.360 --> 0:08:00.400 the time X of fishing reels. It takes licking and 0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:04.560 keeps on picking. And our friends over at thirteen Fishing 0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:08.200 appreciate all of you listeners out there is so much. 0:08:08.520 --> 0:08:13.880 This is big.

That would be Joe's 0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:46.800 good buddy. And while I angler extraordinaire Ross Robertson, he's 0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:51.120 exceptionally skilled when it comes to inserting his lower extremities 0:08:51.520 --> 0:08:55.640 into his orifice. I realized we just heard from him 0:08:55.760 --> 0:08:58.439 in a tackle Hacks not too long ago. But this 0:08:58.480 --> 0:09:01.079 smooth move, it just fit our the SEMs so perfectly 0:09:01.480 --> 0:09:12.480 that we'll all have to suffer through him again. Why, hey, guests, 0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:17.080 who's here today? Captain Ross Robertson? While I anger extraordinaire, 0:09:17.240 --> 0:09:20.199 dear dear friend of mine? Guess who's back? And guess 0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:23.760 where he is? He's sitting directly across from me. You 0:09:23.760 --> 0:09:27.360 want to know why? Because we are in Ohio at present, 0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:32.000 in your and your like little domain here filming an 0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:34.840 episode of dost Boat season three, and we're all we're 0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:37.719 all staying. The whole crew is staying together in this 0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:40.920 really bizarre house. So I thought, why not? Why not 0:09:41.000 --> 0:09:45.079 set up the mics, Joe, This is a cross between 0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:49.640 poor Man's real world and a bad frat house. That's 0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:51.760 what I feel. It's a huge house that sleeps like 0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:53.959 four hundred, but I don't know. It feels like it's 0:09:54.000 --> 0:09:56.160 like multiple houses sort of glue together. What they what 0:09:56.280 --> 0:09:58.679 they give us in beds, they take away in ceiling height, 0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:03.400 it's it's very a lot of angles, low ceilings. That 0:10:04.040 --> 0:10:06.560 door I'm looking at, there's a shower in here that 0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:10.440 no human taller than five feet could stand upright. That's 0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:12.959 that's the child shower. This door here, whoever the carpenter, 0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:15.360 if he did an amazing job making a triangle door. 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:19.280 We're not here to talk about the house, though. We're 0:10:19.320 --> 0:10:21.480 here because it's always more fun to talk to you 0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:25.800 one on one. The look on your face, yeah, exactly, 0:10:25.840 --> 0:10:27.840 because you wear the smooth moves king like you live 0:10:27.960 --> 0:10:31.199 to like you know, you live to ship talk people. 0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:33.240 I don't it's that ship talk as much. But if 0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:36.880 you stand at Walmart, okay for like ten years, you're 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:39.400 gonna see some stuff. Well, if you guide, you know, 0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:42.800 I've guided on over four thousand days, you're going to 0:10:42.800 --> 0:10:45.000 get a job at Walmart now. I'm gonna probably have, 0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:49.800 especially after after this, after this breaks, oh boy. But no, seriously, 0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:51.680 you're going to see some stuff like things happen in 0:10:51.679 --> 0:10:53.680 a boat. Man. People tell you things they don't normally 0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:56.640 tell you. I mean, I've got I've got a lot 0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:58.600 of stuff. Some of them we can't really talk about, 0:10:58.920 --> 0:11:00.520 but some of them, you know. I because I don't 0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:02.960 want to call anybody out individually, but this one here, 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:04.800 But didn't you also tell me that You've had clients 0:11:04.840 --> 0:11:07.480 who've heard bent and smooth moves and been like, can 0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:09.920 you tell them the story of what happened to us? 0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:12.560 Yea true story, And I'm like no, because I feel 0:11:12.600 --> 0:11:14.199 like they're trying to force it all of a sudden, 0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:16.120 now we're doing things. I'm like, no, shenanigans have to 0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:18.839 happen exactly. I don't tell you went on smooth moves. 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:23.280 Your actions tell you what. I'm just curious, like, what 0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:24.720 do you get? People say, remember that time I stuck 0:11:24.760 --> 0:11:27.520 my hook of my finger, you should do the bent thing. Yeah. 0:11:28.040 --> 0:11:30.040 That's the one thing about you know, when I started this, 0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:31.960 it was all about fishing, and now the media and 0:11:32.000 --> 0:11:35.200 socials and people want to be insta stuff, and you go, 0:11:35.480 --> 0:11:37.120 it's just different. You know. People are like, hey, can 0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:38.760 I be like literally get in my boat. And it's 0:11:38.760 --> 0:11:40.960 not like, hey, we can get a big ten pounder today. Ross, 0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:43.040 It's like, hey, am I gonna make your insta feed today. 0:11:44.000 --> 0:11:47.600 I'm like, it's part of the business. It's part of 0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:50.360 your business. But still at some point when you're a hardcore, 0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:53.920 like I'm a salty like fishing, wenot like saltwater. But 0:11:53.920 --> 0:11:56.319 you know what I'm saying I'm I'm a grizzled working 0:11:56.360 --> 0:12:00.000 on my crow's feet, getting gray hair because of situations 0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:01.800 like I'm about to tell you, well, I think the 0:12:01.840 --> 0:12:03.400 last time we had you on for smooth Moves, that 0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:06.160 was when the drunk guy choked out a toy poodle 0:12:06.160 --> 0:12:08.800 in a parking lot. So let's say what I lay 0:12:08.840 --> 0:12:10.720 it on me? Man, what do you got this time? 0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:13.679 This one, we're going to entitle hypocrisy. Okay, so some 0:12:13.720 --> 0:12:15.880 people may get offended on this, but this has nothing 0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:18.920 to do with anyone's profession. But I'm just I feel 0:12:18.920 --> 0:12:20.439 like I have to bring it up because it's a 0:12:20.440 --> 0:12:23.240 little hypocrisy, you know. All Right, So I have a 0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:28.080 guy who I've known someone in his family forever, calls 0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:31.480 me and says, hey, I have a UM, I don't 0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:33.560 know exactly what the proper term would be. Let's call 0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:38.959 him a priest, okay, because wait, wait wait yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:40.880 So he's somebody that's kind of like a priest or. 0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:42.760 You're making a joke, and he is a you know, 0:12:42.800 --> 0:12:44.760 depending on what your religion is, because I'm gonna keep 0:12:44.800 --> 0:12:46.880 this very vague, a pastor. Maybe if you're in a 0:12:46.960 --> 0:12:50.839 different religion, it doesn't matter any rate. Guy calls me 0:12:50.920 --> 0:12:52.600 and says, hey, man, I've got this guy and he's 0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:55.720 my he's my pastor or whatever again irrelevant, And he 0:12:55.720 --> 0:12:57.840 says he's got me through some stuff in life and 0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:00.480 he's just you know, he's always kind of gone above beyond, 0:13:00.559 --> 0:13:02.760 and you know, we I want to take the guy fishing, 0:13:02.840 --> 0:13:05.360 like he hasn't done the fishing things nice, so you know, 0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:08.120 be moving around. This guy just hasn't you know, he 0:13:08.160 --> 0:13:11.400 hasn't gotten to do the fishing that he used to write. 0:13:12.120 --> 0:13:13.320 So he said, hey, I want to take a trip 0:13:13.360 --> 0:13:15.400 for him. I'm like cool, And again to me, it 0:13:15.440 --> 0:13:18.520 doesn't matter, right, but it's always good to get good 0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:20.160 people in the boat. You know, at this point in 0:13:20.160 --> 0:13:22.240 my career, have the only thing dons like I kind 0:13:22.240 --> 0:13:24.320 of week that out pretty quick if I can. So 0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:25.959 I want to be the biggest a hole in the boat, 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:29.480 you know what I mean? Yeah I do, Yeah, yeah, 0:13:29.520 --> 0:13:31.840 yeah that it didn't happen to us boat. But anyhow, 0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:34.079 So here's the deal. This guy. We're out here and 0:13:34.080 --> 0:13:36.320 I explained to him it's not a prime time, but 0:13:36.360 --> 0:13:38.160 I got a deep bite go on, and I've been 0:13:38.200 --> 0:13:40.760 catching some pretty good fish. But it's it's a little 0:13:40.800 --> 0:13:42.520 bit of a grinder. I said, So you guys want 0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:44.320 to just go for the little eaters or do we 0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:46.040 want to try to get some picture takers. But the 0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:48.880 picture takers are going to be like, you gotta pay attention, 0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:51.840 we gotta listen. This is a different deal there. Basically 0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:55.280 we're controlled fishing. Bottom. Of course, I rarely ever ever 0:13:55.320 --> 0:13:57.320 have anybody go let's go fish for the little ones. 0:13:57.800 --> 0:13:59.720 But I'm like, hey, we're going, you know, like twenty 0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:01.640 miles this way or ten miles that way, Like we're 0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:03.480 not doing both, So you've got to make a commitment. 0:14:03.800 --> 0:14:06.160 We want the big ones. Okay, perfect. I don't like 0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:08.640 fishing for a little fish either, so but I know 0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:10.240 it's gonna be a lot more work for me. So 0:14:10.280 --> 0:14:12.080 we get out there, and I realized real quick, like, hey, 0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:15.440 these guys wanna have fun, but to make this to execute, 0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:19.040 they're not really listening real good. So you start with like, hey, guys, 0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:21.280 you know, and you kind of keep amping it up, 0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:24.440 and uh, the guy says to me at one point, 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:26.680 because we lose a couple of fish, and I mumble 0:14:26.760 --> 0:14:30.760 under my breath like because again, you know, I when 0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:33.080 we lose a fish. I want everybody have fun being serious, 0:14:33.600 --> 0:14:36.320 But if you're fishing with a captain or because I 0:14:36.320 --> 0:14:37.880 fish with guides, you know, I go down saltwater and 0:14:38.080 --> 0:14:40.160 I fish with a child, Like if that captain when 0:14:40.200 --> 0:14:42.560 we lose like a trophy fish, was it like, oh, well, 0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:44.960 I'm kind of like this guy. I'm a guy, right, 0:14:45.320 --> 0:14:46.760 I mean, now you don't have to sort of a 0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:49.400 tissy fit. I get it. But yet, if you don't 0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:51.160 give a ship at that point, like you have to 0:14:51.200 --> 0:14:53.040 make your point known that like you worked hard, like 0:14:53.120 --> 0:14:55.480 I just put you on them. It's hard, Like you're not. 0:14:55.640 --> 0:14:57.360 This is like trophy deer hunting. You're not. We're not 0:14:57.400 --> 0:15:01.360 going to have class deer coming because you're eating mountain 0:15:01.360 --> 0:15:04.760 dewing donuts And like, dude, I yeah, we'll get the 0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:07.440 next one. Yeah. Like and when I hear that we'll 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:09.640 get the next one, I want to choke slash somebody. 0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:13.800 Just don't say anything. So like these guys are losing 0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:16.000 a bunch of fish to your little few f bombs 0:15:16.000 --> 0:15:18.200 out under my breath, like because because again we lost 0:15:18.200 --> 0:15:19.960 a few fish that I'm like, man, I know those 0:15:19.960 --> 0:15:22.120 were great, those were good fish, right, I just just 0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:25.680 what I do. I know it, and I uh. He starts, he'saying, 0:15:25.680 --> 0:15:27.400 you know, I really wish you'd clean up your mouth. 0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:29.360 And I tell me, you know what, You're right, I said, 0:15:29.560 --> 0:15:31.880 you're you aren't wrong. I said, you know what, I said, 0:15:32.160 --> 0:15:34.280 I do a lot of things wrong. I said, you know, 0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:36.920 and you're you're not wrong. I said, but you know 0:15:36.960 --> 0:15:38.640 what here, I said, that's the worst case scenario thing 0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:40.400 I do. I said, I'll try to clean up for you. 0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:42.040 But I say to him, so what do you do 0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:47.720 for a living? I'm a pastor? And I'm like, oh right, 0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:50.320 So now I'm starting to understand things. Well, yes, not 0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:51.680 not that you have to be a pastor. You know, 0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:53.520 you could be a school teacher. I mean, it doesn't 0:15:53.520 --> 0:15:55.880 matter what you do. Work in a factory, doesn't matter. Nevertheless, 0:15:56.000 --> 0:15:59.120 just trust people that don't curse. I'm with you, Okay. 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:02.040 I didn't want to, don't I'd have to be. But 0:16:02.280 --> 0:16:05.120 so yeah, long story short. This guy gets on the 0:16:05.160 --> 0:16:08.320 second fish like and it goes and I'm not gonna 0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:10.160 lie to you. I would never say this, of course, 0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:13.280 until that's a much time has passed. I know immediately 0:16:13.400 --> 0:16:15.480 this is the one. This is either a sheep head, 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:17.960 a catfish, or a giant wall you know, me and 0:16:17.960 --> 0:16:20.520 you have had this in person. And this guy is 0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:23.000 just going guerrilla mode. You know, I'm always joking with 0:16:23.040 --> 0:16:25.000 you to slow down reeling. I mean, he's got Bill 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:27.400 Dance on his mind. I mean he's whipping that rod 0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:29.800 left right. I mean, like you just thought we were 0:16:29.880 --> 0:16:31.680 bumping around stumps, even though we're in the middle of 0:16:31.680 --> 0:16:35.560 nowhere water, right. So we get close and now this 0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:37.600 fish dude is straight up and down. Well it gets 0:16:37.640 --> 0:16:39.400 up a little farther Joe, and it looks like an 0:16:39.480 --> 0:16:41.680 Orco whale, and I see the white belly and I'm like, dude, 0:16:42.240 --> 0:16:44.800 walle dude, I'm telling you, straight up, thirty plus centure 0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:49.160 if it's an inch giant, I physically have to reach 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:51.320 over and grab the rod and reel about three ft 0:16:51.400 --> 0:16:54.080 up because this dude is trying to just reef right, 0:16:54.080 --> 0:16:55.720 like she's trying to rip the rod up like like 0:16:55.760 --> 0:16:58.760 a stand up tuna deal like. And I'm like, I'm like, 0:16:59.000 --> 0:17:00.800 but there's no time to really talk, you know what 0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:02.600 I mean. This this is like trying to tell somebody 0:17:02.600 --> 0:17:04.280 to stop at a stop, like you just you gotta 0:17:04.320 --> 0:17:06.040 kind of roll with at some point, no more directions. 0:17:06.040 --> 0:17:09.480 He's not listening anyhow. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And before I 0:17:09.520 --> 0:17:10.840 tell only fire that, I just want to let you know, 0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:12.320 like this guy had told me like three times, like, 0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:14.159 hey man, you know this is how you need to 0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:15.800 live your life. You know this is you know you 0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:18.000 don't curse and you know you need to be this 0:17:18.040 --> 0:17:19.639 guy and everything. And so I'm kind of joshing a 0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:21.400 little bit because again he's a client, but I'm Josh 0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:23.760 and you're not listening to me, so I'm not listening 0:17:23.760 --> 0:17:27.560 to you. And so now we're at the point that 0:17:27.640 --> 0:17:29.800 the sinker is in the rod tip. And when I 0:17:29.800 --> 0:17:32.160 say in the drawd tip, he waned the sinker into 0:17:32.200 --> 0:17:33.960 the rod tip. But I've got like a seven ft 0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:36.000 leader and this thing is seven ft straight down. I 0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:37.919 can't quite get it yet, and I'm telling him to 0:17:37.920 --> 0:17:40.159 just stop. Really he's still trying to rewind the sinker 0:17:40.200 --> 0:17:42.840 into the rod tip. And now you just play as 0:17:42.840 --> 0:17:44.280 you know, you play him out like at some point 0:17:44.280 --> 0:17:46.520 they just kind of come up. I'm laing to happen, 0:17:47.320 --> 0:17:49.760 and the fish makes a little run. It can't get 0:17:49.800 --> 0:17:52.480 out like it wants to go. So I reach over 0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:55.080 and I'm trying to break the sinker out of the 0:17:55.160 --> 0:17:56.800 rod tip and he's like, what are you doing? What 0:17:56.840 --> 0:17:58.520 you're doing? And I'm like almost had him. I'm like, dude, 0:17:58.520 --> 0:18:00.880 this fish is like, this fish is not ready to go, 0:18:01.320 --> 0:18:03.400 and it's a giant. So I keep pulling line out 0:18:03.440 --> 0:18:06.560 and given this thing just he's green. And so now 0:18:06.600 --> 0:18:08.080 this fish is under the boat and I can't net 0:18:08.080 --> 0:18:11.280 it till it's like right there. So all of a sudden, 0:18:11.320 --> 0:18:15.720 he goes forget this, I got it, grabs that rod 0:18:15.920 --> 0:18:19.439 like three ft up and dude pulls. He pulls like 0:18:19.560 --> 0:18:21.880 he is trying to like pull a young girl out 0:18:21.880 --> 0:18:25.359 of a well that has been in it for like drowning. God, 0:18:25.480 --> 0:18:27.840 and the sinker hits the bottom of my boat, dude, 0:18:28.040 --> 0:18:31.040 and it sounded like a shotgun go off, and right 0:18:31.040 --> 0:18:32.960 there at the bottom of the boat, I'm gonna guess 0:18:33.000 --> 0:18:36.800 ten feet. I watched this thing swim away like I 0:18:36.840 --> 0:18:38.639 love seeing him swim away like that. You know, I 0:18:38.680 --> 0:18:42.640 love your Instagram pictures like touch it, Like there's something 0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:45.760 like the like a saltwater guy touched the leader. You know, Oh, 0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:48.119 let him go because I don't keep those, but you 0:18:48.119 --> 0:18:49.479 want to get a picture you want him to get 0:18:49.480 --> 0:18:51.320 a picture. You know, it's the biggest fish. While I 0:18:51.480 --> 0:18:54.760 was like, that's an accomplishment. As all of this is happening, 0:18:54.880 --> 0:18:57.919 he realizes that the fish is gone. He takes the 0:18:58.040 --> 0:19:02.320 rod over his fucking knee and breaks it into and 0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:08.440 says mother, and he just starts screaming, you sign a bitch, mother? 0:19:08.760 --> 0:19:12.480 What the and just going off. Me and the other 0:19:12.480 --> 0:19:16.280 guy are just standing there looking at him, like what 0:19:16.600 --> 0:19:18.560 just happened? And I just looked at the guy and 0:19:18.560 --> 0:19:22.680 I was like, hypocrisy much And He's like he was, dude, 0:19:22.720 --> 0:19:24.040 he was out of his mind. And then he like 0:19:24.080 --> 0:19:25.920
