Members ScottBRay Posted May 21, 2012 Members Posted May 21, 2012 Got on the water about 7 sat nite caught alot of fish 20 crappie 18 white bass. That part was good the bad part was while we anchored in our normal spot about 15 feet off the bank with our boat lights on and crappie lights out two different boats with no lights on tried to pass between us and the bank so close to us I could have touched there boat with my pole. Mabey I'm wrong but I would never do that to some one.
Jerry Rapp Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 the lack of common sense is becoming a big concern.
Members rntmvp6 Posted May 21, 2012 Members Posted May 21, 2012 Yes some people is right. I have had this happen so many times its stupid. Two scenarios are the most common for me. Fishing bass tournaments boats coming up and running right over the spot I am fishing half a cast away and the other is during duck season. I cant tell you all how many times I have set-up for ducks after waking up on no sleep and come 20 minutes before shooting time have a group of guys come in and set-up 50-100 yards down wind of me. I know its all public land but there is a large group of fisherman and hunters with no respect when they are out on the water. Drives me crazy. I am sorry for your bad luck. At least you caught fish to make up for it.
straw hat Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 Man, that just makes my blood boil. These kind of things happen way too often. I am sorry you had that experience. You might try keeping a spot light present and flash it at them as they approach without blinding them. Either way, glad you kept you cool and a tip of the hat to you for that. Congrats on the fish.
Guest Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 Oh, it never fails. Some people are that ignorant,meaning they dont know any better. I betcha its their neighbors boat they borrowed. Probably caused a scene at the boat ramp, when they backed that piece of crap onto the concrete. Load all their beer and alabama rigs in the boat. Then ask which one of these to disconnect, the trailer or the hook? Then take off down the BANK... Ive seen it too many times.
Members ScottBRay Posted May 21, 2012 Author Members Posted May 21, 2012 StrawHat my lights were on three crappie lights out plus our het lights we wear ..... They seen us they just didn't care
straw hat Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 Yea you are right. I was giving them too much credit by thinking they were just blind. lol Just plain idiots. As they say.. "there is no cure for stupid".
SmallyWally Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 The lack of common respect with people nowadays is a sad affair. You can be an idiot and still show some sort respect to whomever your screwing over. It is all about ME ME anymore. I better stop there. Kindness is the language the blind can see and the deaf can hear.-- Mark Twain
