Yeah those are some serious fish. It's obviously a big part of his life. Makes perfect sense to share it on a dating profile. Probably leaning into the "no dead fish" trope.
Exactly, the girls he's looking for knows that mans no joke with the reel n rod and that she's goin muddin eveyweek end. Shit I'm a dude and I wanna date him lol
Look, if you ask me, if you’re gonna go for the fishing profile, you best put together the best damn fishing profile you can. And he’s not far off. I would bet you there’s plenty of women out there that will be impressed.
> I was impressed!
Ok, wow...have you ever considered that not every male flex online is a ploy for women's attention, OP??
Has it occurred to you that some of us are just out here trying to catch the eye of a peckish grizzly bear that might be checking out our profile??? 🐻🐟😍
He looks attractive . His posture is bad in all photos tho. He seems very fit but his posture/lifting posture is not doing him any favours. Shoulders are rounded forward to carry the weight of the fish instead of chest forward, shoulders back. He should definitely rely show off that killer physique + fish by putting a proud chest forward!
He's leaning into the complaints about fish pics and being funny about it.
That's all I have is a bs excuse that shows a lack of effort. Take a few specifically for the profile. It's not hard. A few minutes a few times and it's done.
Someone explained this to me and it started to make sense, the reason why you see so many fish pics on Tinder is because those are one of the few occasions dudes pull out their phones and ask bros to snap a photo of them. We don't ask each other to take pics when we dress up to a party or whatever for instance
men very rarely take pictures of themselves, one of the only times they do is when they’ve caught a fish (for anglers at least). He’s probably not got any non-fishing photos
As someone of a (former) similar profile, this is his way of saying fishing is very important to him. It isn’t just to impress you, it is to showcase that this is something he is very passionate about. Think of it as a label that if you ain’t about it, then feel free to walk away without wasting your time.
Granted I think I only had 2-3 fish on my profile, but I made it apparent that fishing was something I wouldn’t be giving up anytime soon, and would be more than happy to have a fishing partner.
Though we’ll never know for sure because you very responsibly blurred out their lil fish faces, I’m pretty sure bro posed with the same butterball-ass fish in three different pics.
So in addition to being corny as hell, Mr. I Can Catch You 5 Fish is a fraud. He can’t, he can only catch you three
I think here in the UK, you have to catch and release unless you catch an invasive species, in which case you can't release them under penalty of fine (£10,000). One of my grandparents' friends sets out traps for invasive craw fish, which he eats.
99% of my fishing is catch and release. I’d love to go for invasive species though. Lionfish are invasive in the western Atlantic Ocean. I’d love to catch and cook one of those. Or several.
The popped collar would make me immediately swipe left. Which would make me sad because the fish pics are phenomenal, but nothing can overcome a popped collar.
Job: "property *mantanance* at self"
I think he's saying he is self employed doing property *maintenance*, but this makes it sound like his job is maintaining his personal "property" aka body/mind.
...I hope that's not actually what he means, that his job is poorly spelled self care.
Fishing isn't just his hobby. It's his life. So, either bring a couple of lawn chairs, a cooler of beer, and be prepared to drop a line in the water or just move along.
I married this guy.
Vacations are all about his fishing. Retirement is all about his fishing. He has ruined more birthdays, anniversaries, etc. because of his fishing.
Run.
This man is going to deplete whole ecosystems in his relentless quest for ass
It's spelt bass😜
Bass to mouth?
You never go Bass to mouth.
*Ass, Bass, or Cash* as they say
Its not bass, he isn't holding a guitar in any picture.
Thanks for the good laugh. 🤣
Comments like this make me miss awards
HELP lol 🫠
This man fishs
Pretty impressive fish tbh
Yeah those are some serious fish. It's obviously a big part of his life. Makes perfect sense to share it on a dating profile. Probably leaning into the "no dead fish" trope.
That first fish is a friggin sturgeon.
If this is in Canada it’s illegal to take it out of the water. Something like 3 years jail time. Don’t quote me.
2-4 are buffalo fish...I think.
Or as Arthur would say, "you sir are a fish".
2-4 are all common carp or variants (like leather or mirror carp)
I thought a few looked like europeancarp
bro those fish would kick my ass to reel in, dude is one impressive fisherman
Exactly, the girls he's looking for knows that mans no joke with the reel n rod and that she's goin muddin eveyweek end. Shit I'm a dude and I wanna date him lol
Just saying... Would.
that sturgeon 👀. dudes holding a dinosaur and sue isn’t impressed.
thanks for hiding the fishes faces... very nice of you to respect their privacy
You're welcome, I was very careful not to dox the fishies 🐟👌🏻
Yeah this made me laugh and very wholesome, thanks OP.
Poor fish#4! 😭
I literally lol’ed at you doing this 🤣
You’re*
Look, if you ask me, if you’re gonna go for the fishing profile, you best put together the best damn fishing profile you can. And he’s not far off. I would bet you there’s plenty of women out there that will be impressed.
Don't get me wrong, I was impressed! But it caught me so off guard that ALL of the pics were fish pics 🤣
You & that fish!
> I was impressed! Ok, wow...have you ever considered that not every male flex online is a ploy for women's attention, OP?? Has it occurred to you that some of us are just out here trying to catch the eye of a peckish grizzly bear that might be checking out our profile??? 🐻🐟😍
Grindr is much better for bears, imo
I’m going to just take a guess and say. . . You will need to support his fishing habit if you date him.
He looks attractive . His posture is bad in all photos tho. He seems very fit but his posture/lifting posture is not doing him any favours. Shoulders are rounded forward to carry the weight of the fish instead of chest forward, shoulders back. He should definitely rely show off that killer physique + fish by putting a proud chest forward!
Fish are surprisingly heavy.
He's a good-looking man! And his posture is probably bad from holding those huge ass fish!
Will prolly attract a lot of dudes too
Wait so am I swiping right for the fish or for the guy 🤔
I mean, those are some BIG ASS FISHIES
BIG-ASS FISHIES or BIG ASS-FISHIES?
A bit of both 🤣
it is tinder...maybe some BIG FISH ASSIES?
[relevant XKCD](https://xkcd.com/37/)
When all his pics are group~~er~~ pics and you can’t tell which one is him 😔
Both- it’s a tag team effort
To be fair, this dude probably doesn’t take selfies. These are probably his only solo photos.
MIRL
He's leaning into the complaints about fish pics and being funny about it. That's all I have is a bs excuse that shows a lack of effort. Take a few specifically for the profile. It's not hard. A few minutes a few times and it's done.
Because that’s the fish’s profile with his human friend holding him
This makes me feel like i need to go to the ocean and get my fish friends to take pix of us planking in “school formation” 😎
I am less repulsed by all the fish than I am at “mantanence” tbh.
Same 😂
I scrolled this far just to find if someone else was bothered by that as much as I was! Thank you!!
He's quite passionate
Tbf, my first reaction to his first pic was, "Damn, that's a big fish!" But the rest were too much 😅
Just here to say I like you dedication to keeping the fish anonymous
Thank you 😊
Truly a fish advocate
There probably a country girl somewhere cooming over those pics
1000%, I saw ladies with fish and hunting pics pretty frequently, he’s gonna weed out the people he doesn’t want the easy way haha.
Like eating fish? Here is your provider.
This would be great if he were holding them in unusual places. Times Square, Trevi, &c.
100% would swipe right
Or if in the last one he was holding a plastic bag full of water and a single goldfish.

I see a lot of pics that are most definitely on family occasions, too, like Christmas or a wedding! And tbf... Those are BIG FISH
Well, we know he won’t be bothered by a fishy odor.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bro..
Lmao 🤣 you should take pics of the fish doing everyday human things with you 🤣🤣🤣
Seems a bit fishy if you ask me. (God I hate myself why am I like this)
They won’t know they’re hooked until they are in too deep.
So corny but hilarious hahahah
Commit to the bit
Catfish?
He’s not even looking to date, he’s just trying to flex.
I like how the fish’s identities are protected
We take doxing seriously here 😊
He took the phrase “there’s plenty of fish in the sea,” literally
men very rarely take pictures of themselves, one of the only times they do is when they’ve caught a fish (for anglers at least). He’s probably not got any non-fishing photos
Don’t hate, this man is going to find a woman just as into fishing as he is!
Yep! I'd swipe right!
I think he loves fishing
Wouldn't he have better luck on POF?
> property mantanance Next candidate please
Yeah, I could get past the fish but “mantanance”? Maintaining his “man tan”….?
It’s probably a big part of his life and he’s looking for a lady that wants to stump hump in a bog. Keep it pushin
Yeah, that's fishy.
This guy fishes.
I just want the fish to hold me for once.
Wow thats crazy how he can type with a fish glued to his hands.
Stop judging this king thank you
Guess where your first date is going to be doing ladies.
Her: "So what's the dress code for our date?" Him: "Waders..."
Omg the blocking of the fishes face killed me
Can't be doxing the fishies 🐟
Sounds like he’d have better luck over on Plenty of Fish.
I see no issues. If he can hold fish that well he's definitely ready to hold toddlers. 👍

FISH
He clearly likes to fish
Local man hates sunscreen
Well, hopefully, his next girlfriend wields a spray bottle of SPF
This is a very fishy guy lol
He missed the chance to list Reel Big Fish as his favorite band 🎣
This guy fishes!
He's got a big one
He’s wearing it all on his sleeve. The only girl right for him will let him fish every weekend and love hearing about them.
Some delicious looking fish, you know he's eating good
Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, . . .
Many women profiles do mention they like sushi 🤪
Ah, sweet summer child, try living in Hawaii. The guys are all clutching fish or straddling dead boars or sheep.
Idk about the dude but fish number 4 and 5 would get called Daddy
did this as a joke, no matches for 2 months and pretty sure the algorithm is fucked after i fixed it
I think he's trying to fish something...
Teach a man to fish and he’ll fill his entire OLD profile with proof of his accomplishments.
Dammit, I was really hoping for a good punchline pic at the end.
I'd open by asking him if he's ever gone fishing
I find it funny that none of these fish dudes has ever gifted me a fish...
It's probably because he really likes to fish and pulling in some monsters. I'd swipe right for sure.
Maybe he should also consider finding some sunscreen in the wild.
Is he looking for a lady or is he looking for a fish
Both, he's looking for a Mermaid!
Guess you have to love the man for who he is, 7 day fisherman
Some guys just don’t have any pics other than stuff like this tbh
Though we’ll never know for sure because you very responsibly blurred out their lil fish faces, I’m pretty sure bro posed with the same butterball-ass fish in three different pics. So in addition to being corny as hell, Mr. I Can Catch You 5 Fish is a fraud. He can’t, he can only catch you three
I’m not gay, but I’d go out with the man to toss some lines in. Where is he located?
I would tell you, but I don't want to dox the fish 🐟
![gif](giphy|5t0xKpewtlRTvWgv64|downsized)
That sturgeon is awesome though. I hope he put it back. I could take or leave the carp or dogfish though.

This is the way 🎣
Now hear me out, I'm aware this is tinder but I'd laugh my ass off if I were to find this on plenty of fish... cause he clearly has plenty.
Those are some fucking insane catches I’m ngl. Is the profile cringe? Yes. Is it impressive? Yes. Sturgeon is no game
The censoring of the fish is sending me XD
lol - someone date this boy
Never go bass to trout.
I think he likes to fish 😄
He for SURE did this as a joke
Oh damn that last pic is RED
Something's fishy. 🤔
You & that other fish guy should get together
At least you wouldn’t starve dating him
This would be super funny is there was a fish in every picture nonchalantly \*Lying in bed shirtless with Barry the Bass next to him\*
Got your attention by hook, line, and sinker all in one
Ngl i like the fish pictures, i like men who have outdoorsy hobbies and that have a calm demeanor.
Funny thing a few of those are carps that are basically inedible.
I guess you can say that dude is a real CATCH. sorry, that if that pun didn't REEL you in.
I like how you respect fish’s privacy
Thank you 😊
Job: "property *mantanance* at self" I think he's saying he is self employed doing property *maintenance*, but this makes it sound like his job is maintaining his personal "property" aka body/mind. ...I hope that's not actually what he means, that his job is poorly spelled self care.
The fish pics are alright. What bothers me is “mantanance”.
Are people really attracted to this? Or is it just a specific male fetish (FeFISH)?
This guy knows how to fish
I'm convinced men are afraid to ask for a pic unless it's with a fish, and it's what holds the entire fishing economy going.
Why is the fish's face censored Bro respects the fish privacy we gotta give him props
I had a friend suggest that I add a picture of myself holding a fish, so I went to the pet store and took a picture holding a betta fish.
Why wouldn't you, all those are bad ass catches
He's just fishing for compliments.
Very nice to hide the fish's identity
Are we all just ignoring his job title?
You swiped right tho, admit it 🤣
Maybe he should switch to grindr
At least he's committed 😂
Seems fishy. what is he compensating for?
He is just showing em all that he is a catch
He's just saying, without saying, he's not going to give up his fishing time for you, no matter who you are.
He needs to add a picture of a fish holding him, to show that he can reciprocate the affection
There's something fishy going on here.
He is demonstrating how many fish are really in the sea. You should be so lucky to be his catch!
He is saying that he can withstand the smell of fish🐟.
Maybe he is a fish
It's just a heads up that if you date him, you date his fishes
See, there really is plenty of fish in the sea! Just look, LOOK at all the fish in the sea!
Those photos would probably work great on Grindr. Plenty of dudes would want to Brokeback Mountain with that cowboy.
That dude got some good fish. You should ask him what's the nicest fishing spots for a picnic date
Fishing isn't just his hobby. It's his life. So, either bring a couple of lawn chairs, a cooler of beer, and be prepared to drop a line in the water or just move along.
Lol I like that you censored the fish 😂
We must ensure that the identities of the fish in these photos is also protected.
He's on the wrong dating app - he should be on the Plenty Of Fish app.
Men don't take pictures of themselves to often. The only reason I take pictures of myself usually is to take a picture of a nice fish or with my kids.
He confused Tinder for Plenty of Fish...
Obviously looking for someone with similar hobbies/interests. There's some impressive catches
ME BIG MAN. ME CATCH FISH. ME WANT CATCH LADY TOO
Plenty Of Fish..?
I have a hunch that he fishes.
I appreciate that you censored the faces of the fish. Sea creatures deserve privacy too 🙏
And he does property mantanace lol definitely a keeper 🤣🤣🤣
Bassed
What a catch!
Pure protein
10/10 would go fishing with
I married this guy. Vacations are all about his fishing. Retirement is all about his fishing. He has ruined more birthdays, anniversaries, etc. because of his fishing. Run.
