A dude decked out in top-tier offshore fishing gear - fishing shirt, expensive polarized shades, Olukai flip flops and buff around the neck - but hasn’t touched a rod since that one party boat trip in 2016. Usually found far from any actual water, often at brunch, Publix, or flexing on Instagram with a caption like “Salt Life" next to a retention pond.
Common Traits:
- SPF 50 hoodie with no tan line
- Talks tides, can’t tie a clinch knot
- Sandbar MVP, casting optional
- Uses ‘tight lines’ as a sign-off, unironically

Bro, that guy just pulled up in a lifted Tacoma wearing $500 in fishing gear to buy a sub. Total Pelagic Poser.
If your fish finder is your TikTok feed… you might be a Pelagic Poser.

Get the poser mug.
Someone portraying themself as something other than who they really are. A gang member is one kind of poser.
The poser girl took that kid's soccer ball/ basketball/football/baseball to the construction site to bait the guy.
Tattoo artist- I wouldn't wake her and tell her what a poser she is, you'll get hurt.

Get the Poser mug.Someone that claims to carry a pocket knife for protection/self defense instead of for the real reason they carry one, to look/sound/feel tough/strong/powerful.
The dorky poser with the glasses stabbed her boyfriend 16 times to have something to show for her not being the same chicken shit people knew her as when she was a kid, and thought that the jury wouldn't see right through her, and support her self-defense testimony. They knew she wasn't really the hardass she was portraying herself as, though she was a bully like any other.
