Ok, here goes, it would really be nice if the co anglers would park their vehicles out away from where we need to be parking trucks with boat trailers. I saw 7 vehicles taking up truck boat parking, just because they were to lazy to park up the hill on the grass. Then they get in their boater's truck and can't find a place to park, now how smart is that? If you are early and LAZY go ahead pull down to the floating ramp, stack that 160 pounds of needed equipment by the dock and then drive the car to the grass on top and park. You can then smoke 3 cigg's and slowly make your way back down to the ramp area. Come on just a little courtesy is all that is needed. Ok back to who has the best rod's and other stuff.

Tournament boys seem to want to own the lake and parking lot , they are so discourteous on the lake many times and now you complain because someone doesn't leave your tournament fisherman a parking spot - boy is that a deal - correct the tournament behavior and THEN worry about if someone got your spot - these lakes are made for water rights, the public fishing and the public enjoyment - not to cater to promoters , the gamblers, which all Texas tournaments fall under the Texas gambling laws and be glad the public keeps putting fish back in the lake for you to gamble on with their license fees- Tpwl says only 6 % of the people tournament fish so add that up to who pays the bill

By the way, I only smoke one cigarette walking from the parking lot to the my boat. I have worked my azz off for 40 years and Grout Scout when you have done the same you can call me lazy.

I like how quiet it got when the OP said that he was actually the coangler.

People pulling into a parking area take the first space available. Just like pulling into your local Walmart. If that ruins your day fishing then then you are doomed from the start.
