There was a group of us on wolf island yesterday and two boats decided they needed to get 20 ft from shore right where our lines were in and cast for bass. They hooked and drug our lines all over the place. Why? When I yelled at them they seemed pissed, like it was my fault we got there first. Gotta say, if they wanted to fish there they shoulda got out earlier. It was so rude. We were there with a pile of kids, if we werent, I woulda paddled out to them and boarded their boat with a$$ kicking in mind.

Even more rude is coming on a public forum and stating how you are going to give someone an a$$ kicking. Another internet badass at work. Grow up and learn to accept the fact that there are others fishing the same waters, and often they are quite rude. Also, attempting to assault someone you don't know could make orphans out of some of the kids with you.

You're the one telling him to grow up but yet you can't help but to undermine him on the public forum you speak of. Seems like you're being one of these "internet bad***" and a db yourself. Good job guy. Go eat a Snickers.

It doesn't matter if your fishing from a bank, a dock, a kayak, or a boat, there are way too many jerks on the water these days that think their more important than you and fail to give other anglers their space. One is too many. From my personal experience, the closer you are to DFW or Lake Fork the worst it is.

I made no mention of the boats description. Also saying I wanted to doesnt mean i did. As far as internet badass, well I am no badass just not willing to lay down like a sheep and take it because it offends you. I do also understand about public waters...there is a whole lake ...in fact the whole rest of wolf island to choose from. 20 ft away from our lines and poles wasn't the place for them.

I was watching family guys last night and they did one of those little sidelines like they do. A guy was getting his "jetski license" and after a few questions the examiner said, "you have your license now, you can go be a dick". Seems like this is happening more and more. Reminds me when the snow boarders took over the slopes in the 90's.
I'm on other forums that deal with the old turbo powered Buicks.;)

If that happens again, just tell them that they are fishing a good spot and that just the day before you caught several nice sized bass and one about eight pounds and that you are planning on catching a few more for a nice fish fry!
Just one more cast!

It's the "ME" generation. Nobody cares about respect anymore. I fish a place regularly and I feel pretty bad when I go past a bank fisherman in my yak. I always wave and go slow and stay as quiet as I can. I do my best not to be rude, but there are people out there that don't care. They only care about them and what they are doing, not what they are causing to happen. As far as "K5RCD" is concerned... they have 66 posts since JULY of 2012. Either young or he's one the guys that is rude and he's trying to justify it. Either way
~You won't catch any fish if you don't try!

I have felt this way about them when I was one of them, all I will say is a 4 oz weight off the side of their boat and an excuse me I did not see you invading my space comment usually gets them moving. The ones that really chap me are the ones that run through surfacing fish and wave at you like they are being friendly running over the fish you are catching.
