Where's The Beef? Etiquette And Respect Seems Gone.

i agree fully that is no reason for that crap. but thats not to say i won't lob a 1oz jig near someone if they are invading the water i'm fishing at the time.

Then I guess you shouldn't be surprised when they have you arrested for assault. Or you take a good beat down from it.

I will always give someone the option to not be a dick, and i always make the other person make the first move. I haven't been beaten down yet

Anyone seeing a gun (with the exception of hunters and law enforcements) on the Fellows Lake property should report it to authorities immediately.

"open carry" does not give a person the right to carry a gun on Fellows Lake property. These persons should be reported.

Boy that escalated quickly.

Me and my fiancéa were fishing at fellows yesterday and an old man in a boat was casting so close to us on the bank that his lure was splashing us. I just waved and told him I didn't wanna fish anyways... Had my ole lady not been there I would have but my grabbing hook on and started casting toward his boat. I just don't understand why someone in a boat wants to be right on top of someone on the bank. I know when I'm in my boat I wanna be as far as I can from everyone

Well said, and that's what I find so frustrating is us bank fishers can only get to specific spots. Boaters have the entire lake, it comes across as intentional.

Ya gonna shoot somebody for kicking your butt when you start throwing rocks at 'em? Are you that dumb ??!!?? Love to hear your side of the story in court....lmao !!!

You were probably fishing his honey hole, didn't you see his sign that the spot was reserved for him. ;-) We all have our favorite spots to fish but if someone gets there 1st you just have to fish somewhere else til they leave. There is something called common courtesy that seems few people have now days. I always try and be respectful of someone else fish and expect the same.

I tend not to go to places that have a lot of disrespectful people, just way easier on my blood pressure.

I try to avoid those places as well, however in this day and age, it is becoming increasingly harder to find em.

Someone has to teach the disrespectful fishermen a lesson because nobody else will. You must be one of them to get mad about this. You think I'm the only hillbilly in the area that gets pissed off whenever someone disrespects my fishing? Think again
