When guys do that to me they should not be thinking about the fish they are going to catch but how they are going to change 4 flat tires!!! Be respectful when you get to a hole and move to another spot. if there is another fisherman in your spot.

Thats why I use braided line, If they are using mono I will saw them off every time when I set the hook, I also start casting sideways so it gives me 12 feet on either side

where were you at I was up by the hatchery on the second parking lot with the sign first on the lt side of the street I lost alot of money out on that river today I plan on hitting it again tomorrow morning . I give it to you moving for others when you were there first I personally wouldn't of moved it would of been tough fishing for them as I would cast as if I was in that hole by myself as planned lol.

LORDY

Ya I hear you and was seriously considering the tire slash idea if only I knew which car was theres. I think from now on ill just cary a gun on my waist out and open for everyone to see maybe they'll think twice then.

dont let people push you out..i would never let that happen...if somebody wants to fish really close to u just use braided line,,, or....reach out and snip there line off with your big buck knife,,,im sure they will move after that,

THats a bunch of crap but thats battle fishing and the reason when we go fishing we get a group togeather an cover a section of water even then you get guys like that but i agree with chongo469 start side arm casting it gives you room

What area, where on the river we you fishing?

it was a guys property just down from the shafer park

I have just looked right at these guys and asked them"You're not gonna fish this close to me are you ?" I have never had anybody say yes.. they are used to people not saying anything so they just snuggle in then thinking you are okay with it. I have preparred myself in the event that someone says yeah and I think I would answer them like this ." I'm not comfortable having you this close to me casting' "I once saw a man laying on the ground with a fish hook in his eyeball and I wouldnt want that to happen to either me or you" "so I dont think its a good idea do you?" I wonder what their response could be to this? Well, lets all try to have as much fun as possible when were out there guys! even though we have to deal with discouteous people at times.
Good luck fishing..

oops that was supposed to be discourteous people..

Haha thats something worth trying if nothing else it will make me laugh. lol thanks
