I'd actually laugh if that happened to me; I am new to ray bob, and have been throwing marker buoys at a lot of stuff....anything that looks even halfway promising on my sonar. 95% of them are bunk spots I rule out. If you are waypointing my marker buoys....you are in for some practice . I thought most tournament anglers would leave me alone since I only have a very small, 'unassuming' bass boat....but on the other hand, I look like a local.

Turn this on and watch them fumble with their unit for a while.

Wow, does that really work?

Not that I would need one, since I only find that spots that have NO fish.

Ya just can't trust those guys in Rangers. A Cat owner would never do such a thing.

Back in my younger days before GPS, I had a orienteering compass and would 'shoot' a couple of readings with it to establish my location on good holes.

Chuckles should have just taken a couple of precision compass headings of you from two widely spaced points and he could have had the same info without causing grief.

Hey Mark, did that guy have gray hair and beard, kinda portly? I saw a similar thing a few weeks ago.

Go out and get about ten marker bouys, and throw them out at random spots, set back and watch. A few guys did that on Tyler a while back looked like flys on sh## after about 3 hours.

Used to do that with potato chips and birds, chasing trout in Galveston bay

you can also mark a landbased point, and line the boat on the pile up - while you sit a good ways off and make a temporary waypoint. you can copme back later and get on that temp waypoint and follow the straight line to the landmark while watching your side imaging. not that I have ever done that, but in theory it will work

Too bad you can't pull the old sandbass fishermans trick....you know when some guy is potlickin' you all day and there are birds working. You take off to the other end of the lake with no warning, take a package of saltine crackers out, wait on the guy to get within sight, crumble up the crackers and throw them in the lake on the off side of the boat. The gulls and terns start goin' crazy and the potlicker comes roarin' up to get in on the fun and you sneak off while he's fishing under all the birds for the non-existent fish

now thats funny!!!!!! i am gonna start doing that on Ray HUbbard and watch the guys go at it LMAO!!!

I've had it happen when I tied to a tree so I could get off the trolling motor to eat lunch.
Poor guy gps'd a small pile of chicken bones.

I guess im missing the point here. Are yall mad cause the guy circled around the boat, possibly scaring off the fish where you were? Or are you mad cause he found out where someone else was catching fish and plotted it to come back to later? I could see the point in being mad over him scaring your fish, but mad cause the dude is gonna come back and fish that area later when you leave is dumb. If i cruise by and your pulling fish in right and left, im not gonna come up and disturb your fishing, but im gonna remember that place go to that area later or another day when your not there and work that area also. Whats wrong with that? I understand the whole thing about "feeling accomplished" if you find a good fishing area all by yourself, but not everyone is that way. Are you saying that if i dug a hole on public property in the ground 4ft deep and found a cavern full of diamonds you would say, "Dang, that guy is lucky. I hope i find a hole with diamonds in it someday. Going in that public soil and grabbing some of those diamonds would be just wrong and i would be a bad person to do that. Im gonna go dig over here." hahaha. You guys crack me up.

And did you catch fish with your friend...I think I was supposed to fish with your friend and he dumped me for you!!!!

That was me disguised as an old man in someone elses boat marking those coordinates!!!!

Just kidding of course Mark...did you guys catch em good deep?

Saw Jordan running all over....we marked em but had a tough time getting a lot of bites....did catch a 10.78 on Tuesday night in 2 foot of water...that was a kick...pics are on the way and will create a post when I get them...my buddy is holding them hostage on his cell phone...didnt have a camera and the fish had not spawned so I let her go.

in a ranger boat? sounds like he has more money than comon sense and courtesy, i dont think i could have been quiet about that
