I don't think anyone here is saying to fight someone that gets in your way. Just saying to address it on the water when it happens. You don't have to cuss anyone or threaten anyone to let them know you feel they are too close or cut you off. You can do so respectfully. Communcation can solve a lot of issues real or imagined.

To sit there in silence and then get home and get behind a keyboard and say "to the guy in whatever boat"....just brings drama here.

these post kill me

reminds me that this year if I dont get on some good fish I am going to have some fun in the skeeter owners. Throw a buoy out, "swing and miss" a couple times and watch them come flocking when you pull the buoy up lol

did you say something to the legend man on the water?

I would guess the people that post these types of things live their life like this day to day.

Do not stand up for themselves when they have the opportunity and then they grow a set of internet nads when they get home.

I can't not imagine what it's like to live life like that...

I fish JP pretty regularly, most of the people I encounter out there have been courteous. I know it happens but I think it's a good reminder to have use some common sense and be respectful of each other on the water, we are all there for the same reason at the end of the day. To get away from the rat race, try and relax and catch a few fish. Why let someone ruin that for you or ruin that for someone else. There is a time to fight and there are reasons to stand your ground, but someone getting in your path at the lake while fishing isn't one of those.

I threw it at him, hooked him, he pulled drag, spooled me, and I lost my lure.

Bull. Anyone tough enough to get hooked, keep hauling azz, spool your reel and break the line with trebles embedded in him would have come back and beat your arse into a blood puddle.

A long time ago on Eagle Mtn. I once "caught" a jet ski driver on the arm with a slab spoon. The 2nd time he buzzed us while we were fishing for schooling sandies I threw it at him, hooked him, he pulled drag, spooled me, and I lost my lure. The lake patrol came shortly after and asked if it was an intentional act. I said: "Of course not. If he was that close to me while I was fishing, he was too close, and therefore he was at fault." They said OK and left.
