Not quite a 39# stringer like that awesome lake Choke Canyon. That lake is tops.

1 lucky bag and if we don’t get rain, all the crappie fishermen will have the bass cleaned out with all the ones they are cleaning from the brush piles. South Texas lakes are in sad shape right now!

Sometimes the only way to stop some of these guys that do this is to call them out publicly. One thing the OP needs to know is that had you not mentioned that this happened to a high school team, most everyone here would have your back. Anyone that tournament fishes knows that getting that close in front of someone without asking is not right and should not be tolerated.


You are exactly right sir. These guys need to be called out for doing this especially if they were representing a business with a wrapped boat. It appears the guys that were already there tried to talk to the perpetrators and they wasn't having it. With a grandson in the boat, you really can't loose your cool and set a bad example, but they did at least let those guys know they were in the wrong.
Causing a scene at the weigh it wouldn't help either especially at a benefit for kids and these guys knew there were no rules to go by and thieir sponsor was fitting the bill and appears they thought they could do what they wanted to. Really sad.

This is too common in fishing now days and not good for business or tournament fishing.

Me my son and my grand son were fishing the same H/S benefit tourny. These guys cut us off and when we ask them to move they said no %$$%^&&&^. 1 hour later we decide to circle around them and come up to a distance longer than what they had given us and they told us we were to close and we had to move. The irony of it was that this boat was a Tackle Depot boat, The company who were putting this tourny on! Worse yet it was the same man doing the weighing in. What I want to no here is it ok to have these kind of people setting a standard of do anything to win and they did win 2nd place with 33+ #. How they won it to me is very questionable. No other boat came with in 75 Yards of them or us all day. Why was it ok for them to come so close to us. Like in politics its rules for thee but not for me. Montana Hand you and your partner have a good day ! Until we meet on the water again !


Hey Over the Hill, just wanted to let you know that I’m on your side. You were there first and sounds like they couldn’t stand it. I must be over the hill too because there’s no way I would ever pull a stunt like that. Common courtesy isn’t what it used to be. I hope it didn’t ruin the day for you and your son and grandson.

we took a pic of them in the dark before fishing started it shows plainly how close they got to us and I am sure they took a pic of us when we finally circled around them but not getting as close as they did. They pissed and moaned and call us down for getting to close but I told them we were not near as close as they had been when they cut us off . By then all of their fish were in the live well .

That long point with the house on it in cedar has been a great spot to get big fish. I see boats on it a lot! and with that this is bound to happen. Hate that this happened to you. Hopefully You and Montana can get this squashed. You should of just went up to Lonnie and talked to him He's the head Guy for the TD pro Staff.

I don't think the OP ever threw any tackle shop under the bus.

Nothing he typed said anything negative about the tackle shop.

He simply called out a fisherman in a boat with their name on the boat. How else is he supposed to describe who cut him off?

I think cutting someone off in a benefit tournament is far worse than calling someone out for cutting you off in a benefit tournament.

A lot of people blame the low turnouts in tournaments this year around the economy. I think that has a lot to do with it but I also think instances like this are just as much to blame. It didn't use to be like this. Now everybody is a wanna be pro. If you think you are that good at being your local DFW KVD and its that important to you, go fish the opens and play with the big boys.
