Saw it happen on Lake Arlington. Guy was in a john boat,with 20 hp motor, anchored up cat fishing. Guy in a Skeeter came into cove and let off throttle. It almost capsized the smaller boat. Bass boat dropped trolling motor and started fishing. Guy in aluminum boat goes right up beside him.Then jumped into his boat and gave him a severe A$$ whooping, To the point bass boat guy was out cold. then started bass boat and drove over to his boat and took the keys and threw them in the lake. Then left . 
I would agree with you , but then we would both be WRONG !!!!!

Well thats no good. This is why I have a gopro running at all times GREAT idea. What we originally thought of as a fun item to have has obviously morphed into something we need to protect ourselves. The world is getting worse by the day folks ............ Because for some reason people who act in this manner are no longer held responsible for their actions. Even if he was on video I am not sure anything substantial would be done to him, if he even cares. It's mind boggling.

I have video of his boat running from the scene when I said I was going to call the police but not of the actual incident. It all happened so fast that I honestly didn't think he was going to ram me into the marina or I would have recorded it.
I have USAA, which might be able to assist but the Rockwall police said its his word against mine with no witnesses, so it has to be handled in civil court. I would spend more money suing him than the cost of the damage. Not so... in civil court you do not need an attorney and your wife witnessed the incident.

That’s what small claims court is for. Take the police report, gather the estimates, and hit the employer with a lawsuit. Only thing that actually makes any sort of impact on these types of buttplugs. THIS ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Send a REGISTERED MAIL RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED letter to TowBoatUSA and inform them of the date, time, etc that this happened and copy your insurance on it. Make CERTAIN that the letter to TowBoat has a "cc: XXX Insurance Co" on the bottom so they will know that your insurance company is involved. Inform them in the letter that you intend to file suit against the driver, his insurance company, and TowBoat in order to recoup funds or initiate repairs to your vessel. I guarantee you that their legal team will contact you fairly quickly. This is a great idea. However, has anyone paid an attorney a retainer lately, and checked the docket time on civil claims in Dallas County? One would need a lot of upfront money and time. I would hire a ninja and have the boat visited in the night.

No one here is going to shoot anyone.. Yep. I’ve been on here for a lot of years and I can’t even count how many folks have said if this happened to me, I’d pull my pistol and blow them away. In all those years, I don’t recall one member actually pulling a gun, much less shooting someone. Very true. I have not heard of anyone jumping in someone's boat and beating them senseless either. It happened about 8-10 years ago on Rayburn during an Angler's Quest tournament. I agree, it doesn't happen near as much as it's talked about, but every now and then someone does follow through.

Tuesday the tow boat was on the trailer in the parking lot and looked like a person was "waxing" the boat.

That's why you carry the Glock +1 I have a Sig 9mm and I would have sunk his boat right there. Not only did he endanger you but also your wife and you didn't fight back?!?!! Heck that guy deserved an a$$ kicking and at a minimum he'd have never left the water on his own free will... Ray Hubbard eh?? Might make a towboat USA account and then call for "help" and send this p o s to swim with the fishies... quit rolling over people hold s%^& like this accountable! +1 Make them pay for their stupidity.
