Googan definition
I know most of the people on here know what a googan is, but for those that don't, when you are on the pier and people are calling you a googan they are saying you are a noob that doesn't know what you are doing or what to do. Like adam. Ha

If you have to ask then a picture of one is in your mirror ;-)
Lol
There's a bit of a 'Googan' in all of us.
As much in a seasoned fisher who says "screw the rules and screw you" as a noob who is complacent in their ignorance of how their actions affect others.
Remember the golden rule ;-)

Well said my friend, there are many who consider themselves fishermen, but really fit the descriptions posted!

I've seen a lot of people that "get it" right off the bat and I don't consider them a googan and there are people that have been fishing out there quite a while who "just don't get it" and they are the ones who own the name. It's not how new you are but how well you play with others.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
