Anyone know what a "whiff" is?
- Fish Wrangler Glossary and Abbreviations Whiff/Wiff: A complete miss - no catch, no chum loss. Baseball slang for when a batter swings at a pitch and misses - especially for a strikeout ("whiff" is onomatopoeic for the sound of the bat slicing through the air). The word inspired the name of the game of wiffle ball.
