Thunderstorms today.  If you can't fish why not watch a fishing-related flick?  Here are some of my favorites:

1.  Beautiful Girls:  Ice Fishing, excessive drinking, Natalie Portman as jailbait and Uma Thurman...a formula that can't miss.

Sample diaglogue:

Timothy Hutton:  My friends are ice fishing
in the shack over there.

Natalie Portman:  Those guys are your friends?

T: You know 'em?

N: They're here every Sunday.  We call them the Drunken Dry-heavin'
Cheese-eatin' Outhouse Boys.



2.  Deliverance:  Burt Reynolds does some bow-fishing before things go bad.  "Now let's you just drop them pants."



3.  The Perfect Storm:  Commercial fishermen battle big wave.  "Why do they always have to be from Gloucester?"


4. Moby ****:  "I'll follow him around the Horn, and around the Norway maelstrom, and around perdition's flames before I give him up."  -Gregory Peck as Ahab, the ultimate fishing obsessive

5.  Down to the Sea in Ships:  Another whaling classic, this one with Lionel Barrymore as captain Bering:  "Great suffering Cod-fish!" 

6.  A River Runs Through It:  especially popular with fly-fisherman contemplating careers in the Presbyterian ministry.

7.  Islands in the Stream: from the unfinished Hemingway novel.  George c. Scott takes his kids fishing off the Bimini shore...and then into a number of bars.

8.  The Old Man and the Sea: more Hemingway.  Old fisherman battles big fish with handline.  There are versions with spencer tracy and anthony quinn.

9.  On Golden Pond: Henry Fonda hunts "Walter."  Jane Fonda sports bikini.

10.  Grumpy Old Men 1 & 2:  more cranky, foul-mouthed old men chasing a famous big-un.

11.  Jaws: the most famous big-un of them all.  Roy Scheider shows you how to fish with combustible gas:  "show me the tank!"

 I agree t-storm's no fishing.
 
 unless you have a 21ft stainless steel fishing rod . lol.
 
fishing movies are a great way to learn or just brush up. 
I highly  reccomend the infishermen fishing movies .
 
 
the only time i will watch fishing movies  is when there new to me or i'm to sick or got hurt where i can't get out to go fishing. but that's me. every body is diffrent i guess.
 
maynard - enjoy those movies , there are alot of trick's to be learned from the pro's. & maybe the next day you can go fishing.
weather permiting.
 

 
Fish long & fish hard.

I remember the trailers for "Gone Fishin'" when it came out...never got around to seeing it, though.

"Bait Shop" is new to me.

Think it's about to start raining again.  Trip to the movie store for a double feature could be in order.

Grumpy Old men is a classic: Walter Matthau's  opening line of "good morning D!ck head" to Jack Lemon is a classic one linner in my book.

Bait Shop= complete garbage.

Gone Fishin'= underrated classic.
