Before he rode off into the sunset(or would that be sunrise) to Texas
my buddy Donovan, who got me addicted to this type of fishing, used
to always call me "capn" and "capn tim". it was just the first thing that
came to mind. Oh and it happens to be my rank in the fire service.

OK...the weather is too rough to fish or hoop so here goes...
Back in the mid 90"s when I used to fish Point Dume with Denis Spike (the grandfather of kayak fishing), and his cousin Howard Rose (Producer of the first "Kayak Fishing Video"), we used to call the guy that never caught anything but Mackerel on our outings the Saba Slayer.
When I first bought my 18' CC in the mid 90's my son and I were looking for a name for the new boat, he suggested Halibut Killer or Tuna Tamer but I wanted something different so I said how about Saba Slayer...my son liked it but he didn't know what it meant...the name stuck, and since then it's been pretty appropriate with the number of Macks that I harvest each season for Lobster bait.
I first used my screen name on the first kayak web site that I remember which was Denis Spikes' Coastal Kayak Fishing.com started in 97'. The "old" AllCoast PB board was also a good site back in the late 90's and I feel it was there that hoop netting really exploded.
Alright.... that's my story and I'm sticking to it!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS
Jim / Saba Slayer

In the late 80's I used to live in the central valley and jump the canal fences and fish the gates and spillways. When the security guys would drive within view, I'd hop the fence and wait until they left. After a few years of seeing this, they finally stopped and asked if I ever catch any fish. We hit up a good conversation and they said they don't mind me fishing the locked gates as long as I don't leave any trash or bring friends. One day if was raining like heck and I'm drifting whole anchovies down the spillway when I get hit hard, as I'm fighting this fish the security guy pulls up to watch the show. A few minutes latter I pull up a nice 28" rainbow. I hastily pulled the hook, tossed back another chovie and proceeded to slay huge "bows' in the central valley canal. I was stunned that I was catching trout, he was stunned I was catching fish. After about the fifth fish, he walks up and says, "maybe you should be a bit more careful pulling those hooks, you are ripping their lips. From then of, when the fishing was hot, my buddies and I would say we're "ripping lips", a year or so latter my fishing buddy John starts calling me lipripper....add the zip, hence the name.

Reading everyone's answers was great and I wish I had some cool or entertaining story to share about my chosen name but I don't.
Cbad Mike... Because my name is Mike and I live in Carlsbad. (Pretty creative huh)

beef78 · 08-05-2013, 07:32 PM

It's a really long story. Short version: I was hanging out with some other sailors in Virginia and someone else couldn't turn a wrench and I said, "Let me put some beef behind that." After multiple people proclaimed that it was impossible, I put the beef behind the wrench and turned it. People thought the name was fitting and it stuck. 78 was my football number in high school.

Irishman · 08-05-2013, 08:11 PM

Simple for me, born and raised in Ireland, left when I was 21, arrived in San Diego and a couple of guys I used to hang and surf with gave me the name. When I was making the drop on a nice wave they would yell out Irishman, cause 20 years ago in San Diego not to many Irish guys surfing.

WildernessWanker · 05-02-2014, 07:57 PM

Been a while, new faces.
My first kayak was a wilderness systems tarpon plus I love the outdoors, the wilderness. The first time I surf launched I cut off some surfer that was coming in and he called me a "wanker" as he flew by. Made sense at the time, although I probably would have gone with my username on all other forums, "Trioxide3."

AirborneYak · 05-08-2014, 11:43 AM

I was a paratrooper in the 82nd airborne. Jumping out of a perfectly good airplane. My last jump I landed in a tree. It was my softest landing, but I was stuck up the tree canopy for almost 2 hours. So that's where airborne came from. Airborneyak.

Airborne all the way!!
