So we have guys chunking baits at them and drawing down at them on here. ......all over a fishing spot.

You forgot getting nekkid!

Looks like I got all kinds of options, some very interesting ones indeed.

Everyone enjoy you're weekend, remember what it's really about.

INDEED!!
Remember the ones who armed themselves and DEFENDED for the ones who sold out for safety

Gonna tick some people off here but some of the worst pot lickers I have ever seen have been Crappie fishermen. They will come right up on the same bridge pillar you are fishing and drop down within inches of your line. Seen it many times.

Tick'em Off!!(TFF womens auxiliary)
Seen that alot on metro clogged lakes
Something about open carry covering every word spoken after [censored] you think your doing?
Really does suck when folk need to be clued on manors and civility
Still takes courage to defend,armed or not,sad what the american male has been reduced to the last 20yrs

Wth is going on here?? It's freaking fishing. This dude is nuts

No,its page 5 and about men that allow others to push them around

There are always those who push, and those who get pushed. Sometimes the pushed push back, sometimes they do not. It has been that way since the dawn of humanity. Escalating such things to the brink of violence and verbal assault over a fishing hole is simply asinine. If you feel that you need to forcefully assert yourself anywhere and everywhere, just because you can, or because you feel it is your "right", then you are wasting your energy. Sometimes the outcome is to your benefit in the long run to just go ahead and get pushed. In rare cases where someone just threatens unprovoked physical violence, by all means push back. Some people just aren't worth the effort. This is clearly one of those cases. I cannot stress how stupid it sounds to me for someone to think a recreational venue, such as a public water body, is a good place to establish your righteous masculinity just cuz ya can!!!

The nutcase can't count either.

I am in D/FW area, we have lots of Corp lakes like Lake Lewisville. You can't carry on them since it's a corp lake.

I've been a cop for 25 years and can carry on any lake. Never felt the need. Never need to show someone open carry to scare them from a spot. You go looking for trouble enough and you'll find it.

Agreed.

Even though I'm a strong advocate of open carry to deter criminals, I think it's extraordinarily foolish if your purpose is simply to intimidate other people. That's how minor arguments escalate into deadly force.

I do wear a revolver openly sometimes (though not on Corps property), and I exercise my most non-confrontational personality possible when I do so.
