Fishspanker has it correct but this thread is further proof of the deterioration of our society.

Unfortunately this is the world we live in and it’s not gonna get any better. Back in the day if that happened to me it’s a good chance that me and him woulda ended up in the same boat together or in the water. Too damn old for that now but some of you young guy’s could make a person think twice before they cut someone off again. My Pop’s always said a good ol fashioned country azz whoopin can go a long way!

These days, you better be packing if you're going to confront someone. And, you better be the first one to draw. Too many POS's out there that don't care.

Playing devils advocate here….

Which direction was your boat pointing when he pulled up? He may have wanted to fish the docks too and thought you were going the opposite direction. Some folks can’t read minds. He might have thought how [censored] it was fixing to be fishing your “used water”.

Now me? I’ve come close to to getting my [censored] whooped once. I was fishing a working man’s evening tourney as I have been for years and years. I have “my spots” like most do. I was fishing one of them and a couple of Mexican dudes pulled within flipping distance of me. I told them “thanks” and they followed that with a little [censored] talking. I lost it, as I normally do, and put the trolling motor on 10 and headed straight into their boat. When I rammed their boat I jumped onto their bow and asked him what the f he was saying. Then I realized I was now in his boat with him and his partner. My boat was heading for someone’s dock with my partner staring in disbelief at me! I had to get creative real quick. I told him I thought he was a co worker. Lol. I thought I was about to whooped by two tatted up eses.

I have chilled down a notch or two, but I still think I can whoop anyones [censored]. I tend to express my feelings immediately when I see this kinda stuff. Most of the time, they see it my way…sometimes they like to talk their way down the bank. I have no problem keeping within 10-15 feet from them, casting around them. I get a kick outta it. My fishing partners think I’m nuts.

Were you not packing? That gets 'em to move outta the way in a hurry.....

Went to Holbrook lake on Sunday and was the first boat on the water. About 30 minutes after we arrived a second boat launches and begins to head in our direction, this fine individual pulled about 3 docks in front of us and just flat cut us off. We are the only 2 boats on the lake and this happens. I myself try to give everyone plenty of space and NEVER cut another angler off like that. There is just no etiquette with most of these anglers any more. Am I just being over sensitive ??? He had the whole dang lake and could have picked any other spot to fish on the entire lake.

Doing this is exactly why he will continue to be a jerk to anyone on the water, and this reasoning is exactly why the world is full of them. He knows with a little lip, some people will just move on and he gets what he wants,........ Are you a man or a mouse???

You were already fishing that spot, he can go fish the rest of the lake.
