    Maybe keep a few little ones to toss in their boat when they get too close. LOL

    My feelings exactly. I don't appreciate being crowded when I fishing a spot and I don't crowd anybody else when they are fishing where I wanted to fish. If somebody pulls in on where I'm fishing I normally just leave it to them. There are too many places to fish on a lake to crowd in on somebody who arrived there first.

    When someone crowds in on me. I give them a big welcome smile and give them all my fish. I also check to see if they have enough bait.
    Tell'em I'll be there.

    Well, you could feel flattered that they thought you were good anglers so they had to get close to catch fish.

    Or, you could be a little PO'ed another angler would even think doing what they did was acceptable. I am in this camp. Give people their room.

    I was under a pier catching fish and had someone come in and hit my boat so they could get in position to move me out. I let them have it. Moved a few piers down and here they came again. They said I must of caught all of them from the other pier. Went back to the original pier and caught them again. Nothing better than catching them while they watch.

    If you bump my boat, you’re going to hear about it, period. There’s a pretty good chance you’re not going to like what I have to say either.

    Got this yesterday. Couldn't get mad - caught a 2lb+ CNBG 1/2 hour before they showed up. I moved back out, chatty Cathies were making too much noise, and then they leave...

    Me too brother. I usually fish a 38,000 acre impoundment and you usually see this with bank fisherman at choice spots. With boats not too much problem. In any event if you ask politely I’ll give you the shirt off my back. If you want to get pushy I’m not real good at playing nice.
