A fisherman's term meaning "sore lip syndrome". This commonly occurs 1. When a fish is caught and thrown back. 2. When fish is hooked but gets off the hook. 3. When nothing bites in a specific area because a big shot fisherman was there recently and hooked all of them. SLS can last for a good while. Unless the fish are dumb, and you're just lucky.
Example 1. Yeah nobody will catch him again for a while. That fish has SLS.
Example 2. Aw man he was a big one too. He won't bite again because of his SLS.
Example 3. Man the fish really aren't biting today. They may just have SLS from yesterday's fishing tournament.
