Funky bass savant Les Claypool, probably best known as the funny front man / bass player / singer of 90’s funkmetal madman rock trio Primus, is a passionate fisherman.
He started fishing with his father as a young kid in El Sobrante, California.
When I was growing up we didn’t have any money. I come from a long line of auto mechanics and what we did on weekends was that if I wasn’t digging or something with my dad or fixing some deck or remodeling a bathroom or whatever, we were out floating around in San Pablo Bay trying to catch sturgeon or we were out in the ocean, salmon fishing. Every year we would take camping vacations in the same spot. What do you do when you camp? A lot of fishing.
There’s an aquatic theme and references to fishing in many of his lyrics for Primus and side projects like Sausage, Oysterhead, Les Claypool and The Holy Mackerel, The Frog Brigade, Colonel Claypool’s Bucket of Bernie Brains, … Songs and artwork about water and sailing, fish and fishing are all over Les Claypool’s discography.

Hemingway wrote a lot about fishing and bullfighting. Bukowski wrote about booze and horse racing. And I just write a lot about fishing. A lot of people would call it an obsession, because it’s in everything, but I just write a lot about fishing.
