Just take real foreigners fishing, they won't ruin your honey holes

More seriously things I read today can be the same everywhere in the (fishing) world. I have a very good friend, who puts some time in boat fishing (OK does not count), a real fisherman : I can never tell wether he is paranoïd or not when he says that other fishermen follow his boat :
- we are only forty-ish and we did not invent fishing...
- the water belongs to everybody
- coincidence happens
-...
However I had to sign a blood oath when that guy took me to the right places at the right moment !

Anyway, I can really be pissed off when I see somebody is at a place I would like to fish, but will leave him alone (also a way not to show that guy that he is fishing a good spot, that he otherwise would not stick to, or might not know how to fish )

And I only take on my boat people I trust, or do not have the luck to own a boat (and I am very sad when they get one )
Well I am not as much into fishnig as I used to be, so I do not think that fishing can bring the worse out of me (anymore); however I understand the kind of sad situations it can get people into

I have been threatened by someone (well another paranoid, but now in jail : poaching when you are a so-called professional charter guide is not a goog idea) while fishing in January a few years ago, when we were probably the only two fools on their boat in the area !
But I also gave bird-names to people crossing my drifts, or even started the engine and voluntarily ruined the fishing just to show how unhappy I was

Forgive my poor english !

P.S. I go fishing with Denis tomorrow
We will launch the boat at , scout the area, catch big and definitely have a good time

i dont get fired up about the little #^&#^&#^&#^& anymore, very rarely when i go somewhere to fish will you beat me to a spot, i know when its gonna be bad out there so ill get there way early if i think i need to, not many guys out there gonna start something with me
weve all had the guy who has no clue cast over us,
one day fishing this spring there were what ended up being about 12 of us that just happened to the same area and some guy parks in the middle of us every cast he hangs me up i was nice the first time, a little loud to get the point across the second time, the third time, T.O stepped in and he guy never made another cast, i think he said something like eery time you cast your just gonna hang up that guym hes twice your size and half your age, i dont think id wanna piss him off,
the guys that take it too far need to meet someone who puts them in there place theres alwauys someone bigger or who can kick your assout there keep it up you will find em one day

i got eway bigger problems then someone on my rock

And its a pain cuz its a buddy system type of spot with a long wade out to the sandbar Waaaaaaaaaa my waders leak, waaaaaaa i gotta work tomorrow, waaaaaaaaa there are noseums. Luckily I rallied my buddy who had just got on the cape... bunch of vaginas

I thought I was the only one in that situation. I fish 4 nights a week and half of them I can't find anyone willing to fish.
I've gotta find more poeple to fish with.
