Bryan, I feel for you and you're not alone. I mainly fish from a boat - and it's not just a bank fishing problem. There are inconsiderate and/or perhaps ignorant people everywhere. They either don't care, don't know any better, or don't stop and think about the consequences of what they do. (Perhaps they just weren't brought up with decent manners?)

I've had my share of run-ins with these types of people and many times you just scratch your head and say "whatever", other times you wish you had a stack of bricks to throw at them.

 

The stack of bricks gets more and more tempting. LOL You all are right. Probably the same people that cut you off in traffic, just to be in front of you and not go anywhere.

 

Not sure that manners are in consideration by a lot of novice anglers. What I mean is that most respectable fisherman don't need another man's/woman's spot to catch their creel full. I, being mostly a landlocked lover of fish, run into the rudeness often. A lot of times I just give up my spot, and continue to catch fish a few feet to the left or right. Really makes em mad to see you do that!!!!!!! I have just as much trouble from fellow landlockeds. I also like it when they're keeping fish, I'm catching bigger, twice as many and throwing them all back......LOVE IT!!!!!!!!LOL Every once in a while I get pushed far enough that I have to say something. I know it really tries the patience, but what can you do???????

 

Its a shame but most people don't care now days. They are looking for the ez way to do something. so instead for finding there own fish they want to take yours. now it may also be b/c they figure you can't fish the same spots they can from the bank. Normaly I see that boats don't look out for bank guys

 

ignorant and rude people just be ignorant back act like they arent there and cross over em of course carry that extra pole that has the heavy line on it to pull whatever it is they are fishing with strait on in and into the water

common courtesyxymoron: adj. NOT at all common: rude people should not reproduce. Under the list of also should not reproduce:stupid people, mean people..you don't even know who you are, but I see droves of you every single day. When dealing with them, try your hardest not to be mean, rude and stupid back, that makes you one of them. Politely explain that they have interfered with your good time. Then kick their stuff in the water.

 

hi site, just my 2 cents but iam still landlocked for now .....and i have good sucess from shore. I have seen all kinds of things but i agree, most boaters tend to look down on bank anglers ive been told for whatever reason only the person knows.Always trying to moter pass to spook ur fish but the funny thing is they help by creating wave action so i welcome them lol.

I have fished many a spot and people will throw there line right were ur fishing it is rude. When wading in the spring during spawning runs it is worse u might get stepped on out there ive even seen fights while wading before over a hole thats producing some people are just plain dumb.

 

I guess I am one of them now.

I just want to say thanks for letting me vent a little. Maybe some of the unfriendlies read this and think about it the next time. A buddy of mine emailed me a little saying that I think fits when dealing with these kinds of people....."When arguing with an idiot make sure he isn't doing the same." That's what I'll try to remember next time this happens to us.
