There are many areas that can only be fished two or three people max, and if one of those fishers is a newbee or just an a$$ Ooo, chit usualy getts ugly.

Story Time

so............one summer morning myself and buddie got up early to scup fish. we where there either at dark or sunrise, its a bit of a walk to this area, it has a small strech of rocks that stick out, on one side its rocky and the other(scup side)its not. After being there for a while i could see two guys headed in our direction. There are fishable waters at least 100 yrds before they reached us, they had walked right to our spot. Slowly they took off the rubba bands off there rods(i ain't got nuttin agains rubba bands) and they did everything slowly.

I was in my late 20's and they where mid 40's or 50... then they proceeded to cast directly over my head....let me tell you ''chit hit the fan''. I yelled... "I'm gonna cut your f'in line... break your f'in rods... who in the f do you think you are". I though I was going to blow a blood vessel.....I'm not chitin you. I continued fishing, witching the whole time, I told'em...... had you got your ass's outa bed earlyer you would have had this spot to yourselfs, he replied.... you think you own the ocean , your gonna tell me when to get outa bed..... to avoid doing something I would regret and have to live with for the rest of my live...... I pulled my rods out and left. I remember the bite had died. I've gotten into red tape with simular situations in the past and handled them a whole lot better....after that day I've changed my out look on dusty pole fisherman. I gotta admit I lost my cool and the old boys kept there's ...so who had best morning...the guy with the stress free fishin...it ain't always about catchin fish.
