You'd need to be an active boater to appreciate the number of
superstitions that some people observe.

I always pee on my shoes before I go boating. I figure that if my
feet are already wet, they won't get any wetter.

I also like to spit into the wind when I go boating - it's easier than
taking my glasses off and licking them for anti-fog purposes.

I like to stick myself with a 6/0 hook figuring that anything smaller
than that won't hurt as much and might possibly prevent another hook
accident.

When having a bad day with no hookups on fish, I will also pee into
the water as the ancient Amerindian shaman did. According to legend,
this was annointing the waters bringingt good luck. I figure that the
fish just don't like to be ****ed on.

I will always create a rat's nest on the casting reel I will be using
that day. Normally takes me fifteen minutes to fix, however that
fifteen minutes is well spent because it won't happen the rest of the
trip.

I will always break at least one leader to prevent another from being
broken.

I have a special pole that I will step on to prevent stepping on any
of my good poles.

I always fish on days starting with S, M, T, W and F.

I never fish on any day ending in z.

I never fish on the 32nd day of the month.

I never fish on the 357th day of the year.

I never fish during the 13th month of the year.

So, anybody else want to contribute?
