While I was fishing a tourn I had two diff guys fishing the same event pull up to the same dock I was on and fish the other side of it keep in mind the docks we not huge docks. Than they looked at me bad when I was skipping all the way under them what are yalls thoughts I just acted as they were not their and keep casting right by there boat not caring if I got hung in there line was I in the wrong?

I would have pretty much done the same thing but I'd said something to them as to why I wasn't changing my fishing. I think they needed to know what they did wrong and that you weren't just being an a$$. I'm not saying be confrontational, just be as nice as you can but let them know they were in the wrong by coming in on you so close.

Not just to random people but those that deserve it. I would laugh my a$$ off

try reading your tournament rules. Most say no fishing within 50' of another angler actively fishing.
we try to be nice but sometimes you just have to remind your fellow anglers they are breaking a rule (that your tournament director created for that very reason).

Bass Champs Rules:
10. Permitted Fishing Locations: Contestants may fish anywhere on tournament waters accessible by boat, except areas designated as "off limits" or "no fishing" by state or federal officials, or within 50 yards of a competitor's boat which was first anchored (an anchored boat is a boat held in a stable position by a line attached to a weight with the trolling motor in the up position), or within 25 yards of a non-anchored competitor's boat unless otherwise agreed upon by the other tournament angler.
