Childish very much so, but as you describe, not criminal. If he was throwing them near the fisherman, maybe a disturbance of the peace, and thats a stretch as well. Probably a stern talking to by a pissed off officer having to spend time with an educated, rude, and arrogant rich person. Afterall, how many times have kids thrown rocks nearby where your fishing because its fun. You should legally fill up the beach with fishermen/women some night. Be polite, not loud, have fun, and see how he likes that.

I had trouble with a caretaker in Bourne. Drove his vehicle in my direction one morning at 5 a.m. in front of Bill and Jul's here. I wanted to drag him out of the car, and maybe ten years before I would have, after all I have the right to arrest a felon any in the commonwealth. He was so pissed I wouldn't listen to him about the road being private he was sptting mad. I told him to call the cops, and when he drove at me, I then said, "listen %$%$%$%$%$%$%$, I am a cop and your not doing that again". He drove off and he never came near me after that. He was the worst one I ever dealt with. I have spoken with other people who are landowners, in an adversarial mannr as well, my reply to them after they have told me I have no right to be where I am is, "calls the cops, I'll be glad to listen to them".
