as pertaining to fisherman:

the first examples of the term being used to describe other fisherman was in the early 1930s in the diarys of pissed off fisherman.

def. - A potlicker in fishing is a man who is too lazy to go find fish on his own, so he looks for someone who is already on fish and then he moves into that mans spot. He potlicks, hes a lazy bastard who depends on what others find or leave him.
