Funny Fishing Videos Clips for the Purpose of Teaching You How Not to Fish

Most people perceive fishing as the most boring activity in the world. They imagine old people that take themselves way too seriously, staring at the water all day without catching anything, and they are using fishing as an excuse to get away from theirs wives. Well, all of that is actually quite accurate, however, there is much more going on an average fishing day than regular mortals can possibly imagine. Have in mind that fishing takes place in the wild outdoors which is an unpredictable environment and there are so many things that can go wrong. From navigating through the terrain on foot, by car, or in a boat while managing all your fishing gear, to bizarre encounters with wildlife, fishing can turn out to be quite challenging.

Funny Fishing

Back in the days, what happened on a fishing trip, stayed on the fishing trips. And after all your friends take turns ripping on you, your mishaps will be soon forgotten, you will suppress them somewhere deep in your subconsciousness, move on with your life, and live happily ever after (or at least till the next dumb thing that happens to you). But, today things are very different. Thanks to all the smartphones, digital cameras, selfie sticks, GoPros, everyone is making a documentary of their fishing trip and posting a ton of videos and pics online. And the Internet never forgets. All your epic fails will be forever recorded in the annals of history to be admired and ridiculed by generations to come.

Anyway, here are my top five funny fishing video clips that always crack me up whenever I see them. Some of them are made by newbie fishermen, some by pros, some are scripted, some are real, but they are all hilarious and they are all fishing related.

  1. At number one, we have this old chubby guy with a funny name called Bill Dance and I swear this guy has been cursed by Cthulhu himself. The kind of stuff that happens to this guy is sometimes unreal. But what I really like about him are his reactions. No matter how unlucky or bizarre thing happens to him, he somehow always manages to keep his cool with an occasional “shoot” coming out of his mouth. His funny fishing video clips definitely deserve some kind of a reward.
  2. The number two position goes to the bloopers from the Catfish & Carp fishing channel on YouTube. This hilarious guy records his fishing adventures, very often with his little son and and his cartoonish sense of humor will have laughing in tears. Come to think of it, he even kinda sounds like Seinfeld.
  3. Next we have a video clip that features a lot, and I mean A LOT of strong language, but I guarantee you will be rolling on the floor from laughter. Two newbie fishermen from Boston see an Ocean Sunfish for the first in their lives and completely flip out.
  4. At number four we have a video from the Dude Perfect YouTube channel that features some of the fishing stereotypes that I’m sure everyone can relate to. The amount of subtle details and accuracy in this videos is hysterical.
  5. And finally we have a clip from a popular anime Samurai Champloo that combines comedy and the philosophy of fishing in this funny scene.
