10- “Fish,” Craig Campbell
“Fish” is quite the replacement curse word on this clever throwback to some of the more humorous ’90s country hits.
9- “Bait a Hook,” Justin Moore
Another twangy throwback that would’ve suited country airwaves 30 years ago, “Bait a Hook” questions a former partner’s new flame’s country boy credibility.
8- “Bad Day of Fishin’,” Billy Currington
Billy Currington reckons that a “bad day of fishin’ beats a good day of anything else” on one of breeziest and funniest musts for any fishing song playlist.
7- “Pontoon,” Little Big Town
Modern country gets crossed with a ’70s yacht rock vibe on this playful 2012 single by one of the genre’s most versatile vocal groups.
6- “Huntin’, Fishin’ and Lovin’ Every Day,” Luke Bryan
Bryan songs alone could make for a decent listening rotation for anglers, from this 2015 airplay hit that’s reminiscent of Alabama’s run of ’80s dominance to “Bill Dance” (its namesake co-stars in its music video) and “Tackle Box.”
