Location: Berlin | Another superstition with fishing that probably originated with commercial fishermen years ago and has carried over even to today's bass tournaments is; no bananas on board the boat. The origin of this old superstition goes back to when the faster cargo ships carried bananas from the tropic regions to ports in the United States before the bananas could spoil. Since the banana boats were so fast the sailors trolling for fish never caught anything.
Another theory on the banana fishing conspiracy is that certain poisonous spiders would be in the banana bunches when loaded onto the boat. As the boat headed out to sea the spiders would begin to crawl all over the ship, biting the sailors and inflicting a deadly sting.
