What a great idea for a thread, there has been so many times I've wondered the meanings of random screen names on boards.

As for me, I used to play poker professionally so hence the name CardShark

My son's name is Sky, and my Daughters name is Star, so together its Starsky. Some boards that have Starsky taken I use Skystar.

I used my real name only to be asked what my real name is. If was going to use a fake name it would be Hairy Hill in deference to the mons pubis

When I signed up for Waze (GPS app, for those that don't know), I needed a screen name. I actually put some thought into it and came up with this. And have been using it ever since.

Back in the 70's, I had a friend who used this 'handle' to refer to his fishing prowess. He ALWAYS seemed to be catching instead of just fishing. He was either a master...., or the luckiest SOB I've ever met.

He took a job in another part of the state and as he left he said, "Snatch the pebble from my hand, Grasshopper". Okay, he didn't say that. But he did say, "Okay, it's time. I'm passing the name on to you. Maybe you'll learn how to catch something for once with that stupid rod of yours!" And with that, he was gone.

I'm still trying to learn all of his secrets to fishing success. Since that day I've tried to live up to the name, Fishin' Magician.

Bwana

My hunting buddy from Montana, also an ol' school biker, gave me the nickname Bwana. We spent a lot of time hunting and riding together.

He would throw parties for all our biker friends inviting them to a pig roast before we even went pig hunting.

Somehow the weekend before the party we would always get a pig or two.



He named me Bwana since I always got a limit and shot the largest animals.

I reminded him of a big game hunter leading a safari in South Africa.

Next thing I know all my riding and hunting friends are calling me Bwana.

Last name is South. I'm a man, sort of.
I guess I could have gone in any direction with it.

When some fish get caught they are all agitated and "lit-up"

Been out of the loop for a few years now due to .... life .... events. The yak is still in great shape and time to clean it up and head back out.

Wondering what some of the new crew of BWE have in username history, how did you come up with it? It's always fun to hear

In the ticket office at Portsocall Sportfishing, a friend of mine jokingly wrote, "John Mckroid Jr." under a photo of a big yellowtail that I caught.

Passengers started referring to me by the name, and it stuck. I once had to return a paycheck from 22nd St. Landing to have the last name corrected.

That was back in the early 80's. Raising a family put the hobby on hold for a few decades. In 2014 when I resumed fishing, John Mckroid was also revived for social media and has even set a few records in kayak fishing tournaments.
