    Default Fishing Harassment.......


    Sometimes I find the nerve of some people that we encounter in the great outdoors, utterly amazing! Woods or water!
    I came across this video today while surfing the Tube. I found myself grinding my teeth towards the end, but
    thought I'd share it for the positive side of it. I was impressed at how this guy kept his cool! Can't say that I would've
    been able to do the same! Good vid , but harassment starts at 8:36.

    He was nicer to him that I would have been. If the guy wants to own a body of water he should buy one.

    There is a guy on KY Lake who has threatened several fishermen who have the audacity to fish near the guy's dock. He has just not threatened the RIGHT person yet. I do know more than one person has beached their boats and started to kick the guy into next week. He always runs to his house like a little girl when confronted himself. Most folks will just ignore such a jerk. Others gain pleasure from a confrontation. I personally have never fished near his dock but would not react kindly to being threatened on public waters.

    Best thing to do is pick up and move on. No fish in the lake worth the stress of confrontation.

    Don't they have harassment laws? Put the legal system and police to work! We evolved it and pay for it specifically to avoid the problems of personal confrontations and the possible escalation to something serious. While I agree personally with the concept of beaching the boat and solving the problem, I also admit it might not be the smartest thing to do - BUT IGNORE IT? No way. How many of this type continue to be complete sdfoasdu9fio[ndflasdfasidfsadfasdfs simply because nobody calls them on it? Some states even instituted specific conservation laws regarding the harassment of persons legally engaged in hunting/fishing/trapping. Let his checkbook train him to straighten out his act, and video such as this makes great evidence. Ignoring this simply perpetuates it. As a matter a fact, anybody out there in need of a new boat, this clown would make a great donor via a lawsuit....

    Now that would be an idiotic law suit. Laws are passed by lawyers to so to feed upon others egos.

    ON the contrary, this is exactly the kind of thing these laws were written for. Laws are passed (or at least allowed to pass) by states' citizens. Harassment suits are intended to knock off exactly this kind of behavior, and they were written to make it financially painful for the 'jerks' in our communities. NY passed specific legislation to spare sportsmen from having to tolerate that kind of nonsense, so I'd check the laws in your own states before you put up with it.
