Angler Courtesy?
#1
I know this has been a hot topic as of late. I found this article about a certain breed of angler that doesn't care about anyone but him/her self.. I hope these types don't become the majority and the rest of us the minority..

That is all too common in So Cali. I have had many occasions when I have caught a fish, released it, and prepared to throw the next cast only to have someone step right in front of me and cast their own line and having the audacity to ask me to give them some room because they are fishing.[pirate]

So what if I have my tackle box and stuff right there. That doesn't matter to them.[crazy]

Those little *&^$*#^^$# tend to annoy me especially when they just take over your spot.[mad]

It annoys them when they have briefly finnished with your spot, left and you catch another fish right there.[Tongue]

If and when they come back, I prefer to cast a simple 2oz weight with a treble hook right over their line and snag both of us.[cool] I just simply cut my own line and come up with the blonde phrase of "Sorry, this is my first time fishing" hee hee.

[Sad] It's Sad and it is way, way, too common anymore. And it's true everywhere.

This is so true for everywhere. It isn't as bad here I don't think. But is starting to get to me on occasion.We need to teach the up and coming angler the rules, so it will be caried on through the generations.

I used to fish in So. Cal. it was bad, you would fish on the pier, catch a fish and every one would crowd your space thinking they are going to catch fish there also. I just gave up after a while and fished on base or on one of our boats out to sea.
