Never heard of that color...  EDit:  It's a Chomper color.  

It's just their name for PBJ. Yamamota's equivalent would probably be cinnamon black and purple fleck.

I got back seated by one of my wife's friends husband at Tablerock in May one year.  He absolutely tore them up on a garlic Chomper.  He paralleled the bank for 2 days.  I caught a few but he never allowed me to cast ahead of the boat even while he messed with his lure or ate a snack.   I take guys fishing all the time and would never do that.  I go out of my way to give them an angle and fresh water to fish.   

That's when you know someboyd is an grade A d**che. I understand that it happens in tournaments to coanglers when you're paired up with random boaters, but to do that to somebody while fun fishing is a real Richard move. The only exception is if you have the other guy fishing right besides you. Some people aren't comfortable doing that though. I tell everybody in my boat to get in my pocket on whichever side they are able to cast from. I taught myself to cast from the left or right side so I can do whatever to make things easier for them.

That's what I do.  I actually take turns casting as we move along.

Sometimes it doesn't matter how well you treat your "partner", you'll still be "a jerk" at the end of the day.  

In a draw Pro-Am tournament one spring I was catching fish behind docks, so I told my non-boater to join me on the front deck so he could get some shots in.    He says, "No that's ok, I can't shoot a bait into those tight spots like you're doing".  

The next day I had guys ribbing me because the dude pissed and moaned all night saying that I front-ended him all day long. 🙄   Whatever. 🤷‍♂️

Never fished a Pro-Am that allowed the co to fish from the front deck.

Hmm, I never fished one that didn't.  Central PA had no rule about where the amateur had to stand.  And the BASS Federation use to allow the co-angler control of the boat for 1/2 the day if they wanted it (although most didn't).

Ok.  But I still got back seated...😂   And I won't forget it either...😂
