fishinwrench Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Good grief! What the heck have y'all got going on down there? I thought Lake O was the most unruly body of water in the state, but we don't have that kinda crap going on up here. Once in a great while I might have a dock owner come storming out of his house all cranky but I have ways of making sure it doesn't escalate into any kind of violence. I never EVER have issues with other fishermen. It sounds like y'all are constantly having issues with each other down there. What gives? mjk86 1
Bill Babler Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 The 4th is and has been just terrible here. I will not even think about guiding the 2nd. to the 6th. Best to stay in the Kitchen and help Becky. Keeps my blood pressure in a lot better range. I'm on the water pretty much 300 plus days a year, and it is only a couple of times a year that I have problems. When its a problem you got to screw up pretty bad to get a rise from me, I just usually leave. The other morning was off the chart stupid.

mjk86 Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 I must be really lucky cuz ive never once had an issue anything close to what is described on this site regularly. Seems like other fisherman are the major problem? If fishing was that stressful I wouldnt do it.

No stress there, especially for a competitive dood like me (with myself mainly). None at all. Promise. Mean it.
Champ188 Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 I'm starting to like winter fishing more and more. Did someone say winter? Is it time to put all the jerkbait boxes back in the boat? Pleeezzze? Quillback, Ham and Dewayne French 3
skeeter Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Off the subject but we had spotted about a 60' to 65' long Cabin Cruiser going down the White River channel around 2 weeks ago throwing at least a 2 & 1/2 ' wake at medium speed. The boat (ship ? ) appeared to be a "Displacement Hull" design and we watched that wake hit two unfortunate fishermen's boat that were trying to fish a point about 50 yards from this Battleship's path. Thankfully, the angler running the trolling motor saw the wake approaching and probably heard it too because it was so high the top of the wake was "breaking" and curling over. He turned the bow of the boat into the wake and we could see the two of them bouncing up and down like they were on a see-saw in a playground as their boat rode the Cruiser's wake. It certainly would have broken over the gunwale of their boat and filled it with water had they not turned into it. ANYWAY, that "Queen Mary" was observed docked at Campbell Point Marina and belongs on the Great Lakes or the Ocean, not Table Rock. Champ188 and dtrs5kprs 2
denjac Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Bill. It was that Dixie jet spoon. They were offended by you using a racist lure and were demonstrating. abkeenan, dtrs5kprs, Champ188 and 1 other 4 Dennis Boothe Joplin Mo.

Been seeing more and more boats this size up in the White River arm of the lake. Campbell Point Marina offers slips up to 22x80 in size. It's only gonna get worse.

At least we don't need a Supreme Court ruling on the union of Dixie Jets. Heck, mine are so "straight" they won't even tangle up in my tackle box. Quillback, denjac and dtrs5kprs 3
