spincast Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 next time put a business card on then end of your rod, point it at him and say, call "call me,I'll show you what you're doing wrong"
John Bacon Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 I like to keepp two casting lengths between me and another boat. That way we both cast in any direction without or lines tangling.
SlowPoke Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 If he's not making me work my boat to avoid him.Don't care. If he making me work the boat.I'd just move on. The law of the water is about avoidance.Not confrontation. Well said Paul.
Billy Bob Posted October 27, 2011 Report Posted October 27, 2011 A old friend of mine has a saying he says outloud....it goes like this... "You don't have to go in the bathroom to see the buttholes"....the nitwits usually get the idea...
Sinker Posted October 28, 2011 Report Posted October 28, 2011 I usually invite them aboard my boat. If they don't accept, they get told off. s.
Terry Posted October 28, 2011 Report Posted October 28, 2011 if he is following too close and to the side of me I turn to where I know there is a shoal, I run him into it and when his boat is sinking I beat him to death with my fish club glad I have only had to do it a few times a year
BillM Posted October 28, 2011 Report Posted October 28, 2011 I like the guys that see you land a whitefish out on Simcoe and park their asses 20ft away from you..
Terry Posted October 28, 2011 Report Posted October 28, 2011 I like the guys that see you land a whitefish out on Simcoe and park their asses 20ft away from you.. that's on a good day if it's windy you have to stop fishing and push their boat away so it does dent your boat... and they just keep fishing because they know your getting them
Kayakmike Posted October 28, 2011 Report Posted October 28, 2011 Comedian Ron White said it best........"You can't fix Stupid!!"
BillM Posted October 28, 2011 Report Posted October 28, 2011 that's on a good day if it's windy you have to stop fishing and push their boat away so it does dent your boat... and they just keep fishing because they know your getting them I was referring to ice fishing, lol!!! Can't do anything about the floatilla out there in the spring
OutdoorDan Posted October 28, 2011 Report Posted October 28, 2011 I like the guys that see you land a whitefish out on Simcoe and park their asses 20ft away from you.. + Free lures!
Terry Posted October 28, 2011 Report Posted October 28, 2011 I was referring to ice fishing, lol!!! Can't do anything about the floatilla out there in the spring oh well I had a guy drill a hole 2' behind my portable hut, he thought it would make a nice wind break for him
manitoubass2 Posted October 28, 2011 Report Posted October 28, 2011 I did some free guiding on Northwest bay this fall for some American anglers. It was my first time out there this season with a new fishing partner, and neither of us had been fishing there regularly for some time. So we scouted a few spots and within an hour, had 4-5 boats following us around. We did good that day, but it was quite comical. We met them at the launch at the end of the day and had a chat with them. They were quite friendly and didn't really interrupt our day. But one fella did say that they weren't satisfied with their guide for the week, and they figured we were locals, so...
Jigger Posted October 28, 2011 Report Posted October 28, 2011 use some braid and a lifejacket and make a prop fouler like they have on Whale Wars This. Minus the lifejacket. Those things cost money!!
fish_fishburn Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 To set a guy up to crunch his boat because he is fishing to close.... I would say you guys are the pricks not him...just saying.
manitoubass2 Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 Name your boat the "authority" in reflective letters, I bet any money boats will stay as far away as possible.
Skipper D Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 Mike maybe you should try getting close to him like he's trying to get close to you if all else fails ..kinda like fire with fire .
mercman Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 Mike maybe you should try getting close to him like he's trying to get close to you if all else fails ..kinda like fire with fire . Mike is a very diplomatic guy. Courtious and boat smart. Last weekend when that dipstick opened his sealed beam in Mikes face as he was netting one of my fish, i saw that he knows how to get a point accross under no uncertain terms

mercman Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 Cool , makes you wounder what there thinking . Thats just it Ron, they aren't thinking at all
Skipper D Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 Thats just it Ron, they aren't thinking at all Sorry Paul , i was over soaking on my thread . Yes i know , thats a tough neibourhood over that way too and you never know , some are not to bright .
dhickey Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 Try going over to him and politely asking whats been working for him. Then kindly ask if he wouldnt mind moving over so as not to encroche on your space. IF that doent work just run circles aruond him chances are you will keep caching fish and he will get frustrated . Encroachment is difficalt to judge it dependes on a multitude of circumstanceces. Personally I go with the 200ft rule Icefishing or open water... Hard to say without actualy being there ? Good luck.
fishindevil Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 i have idiots that wait and follow me on the ottawa river when im walleye fishing....they watch and see me trolling a current break catch a fish see me whith the net out and land a fish...and then BOOM they are within 20ft of me and toss out a 40lb anchor....talk about being an ass guys have done that to me for years up there,i have had them drift right in front of me in the current while i have a trolling line going on,they just dont care,as long as they have a chance to get a fish i have had the same thing happen on lake ontario trolling for salmon too...hundreds of square miles of open water....where does a guy start to fish oh but 20 ft away meanwhile we are 4 miles from shore not another boat anywhre ....its tough some guys do it out of just not knowing...like hey theres a boat lets fish where they are...other guys just do it cause they are ignorant....i have had shouting matches over this as well,as guys troll right over my planner boards....it makes me soooooo mad..!!!!
fishindevil Posted October 29, 2011 Report Posted October 29, 2011 stuff like that always separates the real fishermen from the idiots..!!! real quick,after spending 30 years on the water i have seen it all,and i always respect another guys zone especially if he was there first....the crappie bucket brigade does it to us in the spring here on sturgeon lake too....and the funny thing is if some of these guys would just ask,about info or what i am using for bait,i would gladly tell them,its all about respect and being a decent fisherman and using common sense...!!!! just sayin....
Fisherman Posted October 30, 2011 Report Posted October 30, 2011 You guys need to get a couple of those big rubber fish and hold them up from far away, leave all the others guessing.
