People From "The Cape" Who Think They Invented The Place!
 
Yeah, you know who you are! I figured this was the place for me to wage war with you high follutin' folk from over the bridge!:af: Think you own the darn place but you seem to forget that the only thing that seperates the Cape from the mainland is a canal that was dug by men. Maybe you guys don't remember that....also how many of you were actually born on "the Cape" and have lived there your entire life???? The few that I am directing this mortar at meet none of those requirements and those of you that do....simply subscribe to the belief that the people from "the Cape" are better than the people who live in the rest of Mass. or the country for that matter! I would like you to answer this one simple question and I will let this die........give me just one good reason why you feel that you have more of a right to "the Cape" than any one else that does not "hail" from there. Please try to stow away your pompous, "I live down the Cape" attitudes and give me just one concrete reason other than "I pay taxes here" because that don't fly! I pay taxes in Mass also not to mention Federal taxes like everyone else, so....give it your best shot. I am waiting!:af:

Larry,
I think you need to experience what a relaxing day (on a boat!) on the water can do!!!
Being miles offshore, no waiting in lines out there:laughs:

BigFish 04-11-2004 08:57 AM

Please RR....many of the boating public are worse than the shore bound folk! Thats why I enjoy casting 4 oz. Hopkins at the boat guys so much! Now that is relaxing!:btu:

BigFish 04-11-2004 09:19 AM

Don't step on my toes and I won't have to kill you boat guys!:eek: :D

Moose Nuckle 04-11-2004 09:50 AM

You should come up with another word other than "Kill." :smash:

BigFish 04-11-2004 09:51 AM

Maim works just as well, or frighten, or warn, or scare off, or make a point! :eek:

Slingah 04-11-2004 09:59 AM

settle down now...let's not go "overboard" you are not going to kill anyone...................right?

Hi Moose Nuckle:D

BigFish 04-11-2004 10:01 AM

I hope not???? I consider myself a pretty accurate caster and "most" times I am only trying to wing the boater in the ear!:laugha: Slingah, you been there with me when I take a few shots at the boaters and surfers....I mean it when I do it and they got it coming!:D

Crow 04-11-2004 10:15 AM

Hey BF I fish a place where the boats come close enough to talk to and we fight all the time, so I know where you are coming from. But what if you really did crack one in the ear and you killed him? Was he threatening your life? I have had a plug bounce off a boat and asked my self that very question and unless your are an idiot its better to find another solution. Besides what if they start casting at you? Aren't you in their casting range?
I hate it when they do it too me but death threats hurt everyone. Most of the boats guys have no idea where your line is and how far you can cast, they are just ignorant not trying to get you. Talk to those same guys and they will usually tell you that they had no idea they were that close.
Yeah I know what it feels like & when they come close to me I'll curse too but I won't try to plunk em one on the head.

BigFish 04-11-2004 10:46 AM

If those boat guys can't tell that they are within casting distance of those on the shore then they are dumber than one could imagine! The thing is they just do not care, if the fish are pushed into the beach they should practice good fishing etiquette and give the shore guys a chance to score some fish as we have to work at least twice as hard as the guys in the boats who can easily move with the fish. Not to mention when the friggin trollers drag their lines and loud boats right through a blitz instead of having the decency to back off and cast into the frey! Those are the fools who get my Hopkins bouncing off of their hull. (I would never intentionall try to harm someone, however I have been known to tell them exactly what I think of their fishing etiquette and of them).:scream:

Can't we all just get along?

:confused: :confused: :confused:

BigFish 04-11-2004 10:56 AM

I am not the one stepping on toes Van, that is a fact. You "will not", believe it or not, find a more polite and helpful fisherman any where than me. But rub my fur the wrong way and I will go off on you like an a-bomb on steroids!:splat: :exp: :af: :btu:

Bigfish,

I am going to start referring to you as Poopie Pants.

Bitch and moan all day long.......... :)

TheRattBoy 04-11-2004 03:40 PM

It takes me 1 hr 15 min to get to the canal,I have rearranged my life to fish, i've spent countless hours and tides learning spots and i've walked miles on the beach learning bars and drops.Yet when most Cape people hear where I live , that's it , i'm an outsider.I respect the beach and other peoples property and NEVER leave trash.I have the same drive and passion for fishing as you who are lucky enough to live there, the only thing that makes us different is geography (where I live).I think that the effort one puts into fishing SHOULD count for something.NOT looking for any fights, just my .02 cents. johnny "tRB"

if my history stands correct, most of us are nonresidents, unless yuu are native american.

l.i.fish.in.vt 04-11-2004 06:41 PM

and then you have the guys from Chatham complaining when guys from truro come to their town and vice versa, and so on and so forth what a bunch of crap.
