You can get a little insight into the psyche of a fisherman by the boat he owns and runs. If he puts a name on the side of the skiff, you can learn even more about what he thinks of the world as a whole, life in general, and occasionally some specifics about fishing, fun and family.
Fishing tournaments are good place to see a lot of boats, many with names, and lots of personality in the mix.
Here are some to ponder, with some poignant thoughts about each boat’s handle.
![Sea Sceptre](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/AFTGC3BAZE6VJA6AKJQHWOWZHY.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
A king in a small kingdom is still a king.
![Exterminader](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/KYU7JH3F7VHNBIKDQY7L32UKME.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
This big, fast, wrapped rig is likely funded by pests.
![Rod Confusion](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/R2G66FWVL7WJLTMC37P2EJBP2M.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Confusion? Well, it’s only fishing.
![Clean Livin'](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/7UVLMZWEKFKLBKI5R77TC5BFDY.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Words to live by.
![Fishin' Impossible](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/UJ44FYSPTDJNVR53BL4C3XCKVA.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Hopefully this crew of anglers pulls off success at the last moment of every fishing day.
![Nice Rods](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/RNMJ4XPSOJB2X4BVH5YARJDSTM.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Well, they are, ah, nice rods.
![Reel Tight](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/CAPHUV5KY7B26RKSHQO4MLLEGY.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
For the best control, this is good advice.
![Rock Bottom](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/6QPLVGC6OVJ3LA7US6BE5Y66LQ.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Well, it’s definitely not a Hatteras.
![Knot Workin'](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/75CNS3V3O3LCHSBMZDCCYBCFYQ.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
A little practice with McNally’s Fisherman’s Knots Book will fix this fishing problem.
![Wasabi](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/TJHOZGMJHNMSRVVWL33NNLFD4Q.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
It does look like a pretty hot crew.
![Real Reel](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/MJ7GXUNFCMIRA2IA32HLGBYUA4.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
It’s a boat, not a reel, right?
![Mad Dog](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/KOLEKZE72EQWQPGOSVTAWTBG5A.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
He must be British. You know, “Mad Dogs and Englishmen”
![Wave Buster](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/R5FFPOIX3WFMDYU4LY6CK5WW2U.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
The wave buster in the background looks a little more seaworthy.
![Logan's Run](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/J7RLHNSAVLJMKJG2GNNVSSUWNA.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Great book and movie, the owner likely isn’t kin to author William Nolan.
![Sweet Maria](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/XPMCLLEWLT35QMIOBEJ45FEV4I.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
How come she’s not on board?
![Bad Attitude](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/4I3BFSUCVCAZU6WD3HZALZH6H4.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Maybe, but they look like they’re having a pretty good time.
![Jolly Roger Flag](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/FN57OFBDBMXTLM2FG7YRRN7OK4.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
If you fly the “Jolly Roger,” name the boat the same.
![No Rug Rats](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/IOWQNATRGFKL5AVAMQ2Z6ZERQI.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
No knee grabbers either.
![Vamoose](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/SCEAD5PB4GUPB6LEWDZIYEJMME.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
It’s big enough and looks fast enough to back up its brag.
![The Dog House](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/226YUDZQLIKBQY6IPZFZJBA3R4.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Boat must have strained the budget a bit.
![Total Anarchy](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/DHJNRR35LVNUQIHIU27AWCILUA.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Someone must be in charge at the helm, right?
![Holy Warriors](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/PFS6AL6SGKAYDKIYDEGRDRO6DI.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Bless you.
![Bite Me](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/WC4BG2S2ATGUT47ZXV47NSG4FI.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
No comment needed.
First boat?
![Family Devocean](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/DUIOH3PHVHV6SR7ODBMO6IHCI4.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Close knit group this family fishermen.
![Deep Secret](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/PXMTSACDZHBAXCOCURXWQYQXQU.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
The GPS numbers held by this crew likely aren’t discussed much.
![Reel Damage$](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/7QGQGTHXQ2QLOB73LWWBKA6AG4.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Maybe this boat owner can apply for a federal bail out.
![Never Satisfied](https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/23/ZQUT636JEDG6OPPT35YBDU6HMI.jpg?strip=all&quality=95)
Some people are like that.
