They have to be stupid to mess with anyone who is holding an 8 to 10 foot pole (weapon), not to mention the longnose pliers, small rigging knife visible in sheath, and in my case, sometimes, my K-bar... The rod alone would be an equalizer. And I wouldn't hesitate to use/sacrifice my most expensive rod on scumbags like that. If the first assault with the rod didn't discourage those still unscathed, Uncle Sam showed me exactly how to use the K=bar.... You just have to be willing to commit yourself to the choice you are making. No way would I expect a 15 year old to react this way. But the rod should always be the biggest deterant to an attacker.
