I figured there had to be other crazies. I just never had been a party to it until that night.

I was out one night this year, and had a similar encounter...after a few nice words (well more like shouts, only so he could hear me) and several attempts to show him my location with light flashes..some a-hole in a big arsed day cruiser type boat wouldnt budge..(he was less than 100ft away from me/shore) so instead of wasting my sinkers or losing my plugs..I just started launching sinker sized rocks around the guys yaught..needless to say he go spookedand took off..

This reminds me of the time Tattoo and I were out on Brenton in the middle of the night and a tiny tin boat kept trolling thru the waves WAY too close to us on shore.

On a close pass Tattoo fired a Habs needle at the boat several times, eventually hooking up. A battle ensued... After a lot of pulling he won the battle when the line of the angler in the boat broke. Attached to a Habs Needlefish was the offenders wire leader eel rig, complete with the eel.

I can just imagine the excitement in the tin boat, they must have thought they were landing a 50.

On a related note, what's up with free divers in kayaks? Absolutely NO fear (although they should certainly be afraid) of setting up shop right where I'm casting....
