I suspect the law of "harassment of fisherman" is about the same as the "Citizen Arrest Law"



Not true if it's a good video. Video does NOT lie.


Yes, Video can lie, and can only show one side of story.

I suspect this is like trespassing, you can catch person on your land all you want via game cams.

Until the laws catches the person on your property, then not much can be done..........

There's a nut bag at Grapevine that runs a F150 and a bass tracker that has done this to me on three different tournaments. He's in his 60's or I would have held him underwater for a while. (Puts in at dove loop)
It's apparent by his actions and statements that a tournament angler pizzed him off in this spot and I believe he will harass any one that comes in on this hump/brush near rocky ledge point.
Always happens before first light. One morning, before daylight, we pulled in and began fishing the spot. A boat fired up three hundred yards away and motored right in on my trolling motor and began casting over me. It was him again. If you question his actions, he'll rant about tournament fisherman.

Its taken all I have not flip out but he's either not all there or he's carrying.
Not worth it. Move on.

Went out to the same spot today and he was there. We talked about what happened and he apologized. He said he had a terrible day and then boat trouble. He took responsibility for it like a genuine guy would do. Turned out to be a good guy. Glad I didn't press charges. I guess the reason I'm updating it because sometimes it's worth the effort to make peace. God is good.

Best way to deal with maroons like this is to publish their antics on social media. Let the rest of the world see them being goobers.
