We have all had the inconsiderate idiots crash our bite, but I have also had some pass by and wave while the rod is bowed up. while I agree VB has to be the worst, and especially in the fall when the trout move in close.

Got to give props to those that hold to a higher standard and don't potlick. I usually give and thumbs up and holler "good fish" and keep going.

Now, back to the potlicker stories.
