I was told when you catch your first fish........?

You have to kiss it! Is this true or not or where the blokes I was with having me on??? I think I have been duped!!!

BY THE WAY - if I didn't kiss the fish I had to run around the boat naked!!

No - in case you are wondering - I kissed the fish and let it go!

Update:

Tom T - Wouldn't like having to do that!!!

    I've heard this before. My dad never made me kiss a fish but my grandpa told me about this practice. It is all in good fun.

    Better than the old Indian tradition of having to drink the blood of your first deer.

    It's a rite of manhood to kiss a fish. Fish kissing ain't all that bad, son.
