If they were close enough to snatch a jacket out of the boat...they were close enough to get intodruced to a boat paddle whipping:D Some folks are real jerks. No way would I crowd in on somebody else fishing unless they invited me. I try to stay around 50 feet away. If I am anchored down and they come in on my I fist politely ask them to back off. If they don't or act like real jerkoffs...I promise that nobody will catch any fish I have a low tolerance level for idiots.
