Then no excuse for that behavior. I thought you were talking open water and I just know that I have had some close calls there at times with the kayaks especially when you don't expect one to be in that area.

I fished Fork a couple times and that's all it took, life,s too short for that BS! No mas.......

Do unto others as you would have them do to you. My father was a good example, he always made sure he didn't crowd other boats or run through where they were fishing. He had me running the boat when I was 9 years old. This is how we learn to be respectful of others, this applies to everyday living. The would needs more good examples for the rest of us to learn from.

A really good friend of mine who is a proficient tournament bass fisherman and one of the nicest guys you will ever meet frequently makes me uncomfortable with how close he is willing to put his boat next to other boats when we fish together. It's like he is completely oblivious to the glares and mumblings of the other fishermen as we close the distance. I'm a guest on his boat but I still feel compelled to ask him to give guys more cushion. He thinks 25 yards is plenty and I think we should be 50+ yards away. He defends his position by saying that if we leave more than 50 yards of space someone will come along and split the distance. It's a lot like how my wife attempts to defend her tailgating habit.

It used to bother me , not anymore , I just relocate , blood pressure gets up and I stay mad if I don�t . It also happens on the week days .

Just wait for all the wakeboard boats and jet fleas really get started. I did snag me a nice life jacket last year with my Ol ugly I keep rigged up on the deck when I have to fish the weekends or summer time. My wife and I went to the south end of PK to fish and it was nice and calm we get 2 casts in and a wakeboard boat comes within 25 ft of us with their bags full and swamps my boat water comes over the deck and my boat sits way up out of the water. They all start laughing and spin around to do it again and I fired that Ol ugly into their boat and set the hook like I was trying to rip one of them A holes out. They start screaming and yelling at me with all the yos and bros I told them if they wanted some I'd give them all they could handle but they just kept on going and I'm sure glad cause I probably would have got whooped! And they were playing some techno [censored] and ain't nobody want to get beat to techno.

That was a good laugh, good to give those damn wakeboard boats a piece of our minds every once in awhile

Man if some of you guys think 50 yards or so is to close you ought to try Crappie fishing! Twice I have had guys pull up on the same bridge pillar as me in recent years. LOL! First time things got heated and the second time it was just a old man in a pontoon who was super friendly but clueless as to what he had done so I just moved some place else.

The best one happened on Ray Hubbard when I was Sandbass fishing. I had a marker thrown out on a hump littered with Sandbass. I was the only boat in sight and just flat catching them like crazy. I saw a guy cruise by kinda slow so I put the rod down and acted like I wasn't catching anything. Next thing I know he kills the engine and trolls right up next to me so close I could poke him with my rod all while looking the other way and refusing to acknowledge I even exist. He had a young kid in the boat so I bit my lip and they left without catching a thing. I then picked up where I left off catching them every cast.

It�s all about me brah

Yeap, getting your _ss kicked to techno would definitely suck.

I lost it at the boat ramp today. I waited for a bass tracker to launch. So I could beach my boat and get the trailer. Finally, he left out and I pulled up and went to go get my trailer. All of a sudden, another one of these tin-boat-bass-tracker-onky fish twice a year dorks comes flying in to the parking lot. He cuts me off and starts back that POS down the damp. I politely told him and his hill billy partner to get that POS outta my way and I was next. Told him REAL BOAT GUYS get their boats ready to go before backing down the ramp. I was surprised I didn�t get MY [censored] kicked on that one. I was yelling and as mad as I�ve been in weeks. Cussing at em. Haha. They put their Chevy in drive and left. They circled around the lot until I had my boat strapped and was fixing to pull out the parking lot. Then they pulled in and started unstrapping their boat.

Glad they didn�t call my bluff. Lol

Personally i think more people need their a&& whipped. When i grew up there were consequences for your actions. Heck if Dad didn't keep you in line it was quite possible a stranger in the grocery store would do it for him. Today...people act entitled and unfortunately probably need a good tail kicking.
