People planing out all around me, people running half cocked all around me, rental boats full of real nice yankees with a couple casting rods riding around with the 6 horse motors stopping every 100 yards casting and casting in wide open water with no clue then scooting over another 100 yards. First time I can remeber not even feeling like fishing. I packed up with about 1.5 hours of fishing time in. What did I do??? I got my rig up on pane and road around the lake like everyone else was doing just wasting gas. I felt better riding around than i did fishing. Its starting to get to the point I really dont give a crap about fishing at Reelfoot. Would much rather be in a river bed somewhere by myself. When they hit the banks real good i will be back out there cause boat traffic wont bother me where I will be fishing. River is on a slow rise, my oxbows are just right. bet you i learn to fish reelfoot in the heat of the summer this year. Im not getting out there with the yahoos trying to troll with my rods bouncing 3 feet in the air. And in the winter time when the snitches tell where the fish are and everyone is fishing on top of each other I will figure something else out then too.

yall can have it.... my rant is over :D

oh so now i see how you really feel about us yankee's, damm i was feeling almost like a redneck to .i was gonna ask you to take me out fishing but now i am afraid you might toss me over board.

yes common courtesy is not so common and its not only here and on our lakes. Its on the road , Boat ramps, Campgrounds, fairgrounds, stores and just about any other place you can think of. What a shame my daddy gave me all those spank-ins for nothing because behavin is not such a big deal these days. Well just know this. If you think its bad here try another state with a larger population. I am happy to be here and enjoy the face that most of the time things are just about right except the bite...

I had one of those Reelfoot moments one day this week. It was actually a nice day with not to many boats were I was fishing. Then here comes this idiot at about half throttle right at me. He does a horseshoe around me at 25 yards and comes to a stop about 75 yards away. I have a big heavy 20 ft boat and the wave was so bad that water came over the front and the poles bounced so bad that one of them broke. I do not think that I have ever been that mad on the lake. Needless to say, they got a piece of my mind. They must of known or did not care that they were idiots because they never responded to my lashing. I just do not understand some people.
