Idiots pulling up next to you when you are fishing!!

[jlsch1]

I was fishing yesterday and everyone was spaced at certain breaks in the marsh grass fishing the runouts. When I mean spaced out atleast football field distances there was enough room for everyone to be at a runout. I was on some redfish on one side, little trout in middle, and bigger trout in the runout. Having lived in Lafourche Parish for a few years I never seen locals do this and knew they were from outside the area. Some true *****s from Baton Rouge were working the bank in a pretty little express and I heard the guy saying he didn't want to get close to the hole like I was. When they came by seeing I was on fish. They threw lures within 5 ft or less behind my boat one time hitting my boat. They then decided to anchor up right next to me in a small spot and start fishing. Sad part they even were scrambling around looking for the same bait I was using. You could tell they were new to fishing. Luckily I had my limit of trout and was going for finishing off on the redfish stacked inside the marsh. I was so pissed when I got my limit of reds I cranked my engine ran full throttle out of the hole and *****s were pissed I scared their fish.

Went to another spot down the lake and found another spot just like it and found the same size and type of fish. Funny I can put a pattern together.

Sad people cannot put their own pattern together to catch fish and depend on others like people on welfare to help put them on fish. Luckily I was in my 16 ft boat and not my 21 ft bass boat due to that wake on takeoff alot better.

I find that when I see people that are obviously not fimiliar with fishing etiquette and I can tell they are gonna come near I usually tell them pointers as to where to anchor or fish and sometimes evenn what I'm using and 9 times out of 10 they will give you your space and almost always anchor or fish exactly where you tell them. We all take for granted that others should have the same knowledge or abilities as us and that isn't always the case. As long as they don't run up on there big motor and they dont spook the fish I don't mind sharing spots. I've had people call me over to a spot that they were catching in and I've returned the favor as well. Its all part of being a sportsman.

I just don't have enough snoopy rods to help each loser out there.
Guess we need to rig their snoopy rod, put live bait on it since cannot fish, throw it out there, hook the fish, hand reel to them to bring in, and take fish off hook for them.

Seriously when someone throws a lure and hits your boat they don't deserve respect or my knowledge of where the fish. They have no respect for anyone they are trash.
