Thorn in my side 6 Months, 3 Weeks ago
|

|
There is this mostly guy/gal that come fishing down by my spot sometimes. Sometimes, they bring the whole trailer court(no offense to low income folks that are polite!). I have never seen anyone with 2 slipshots and light lb test mono cast upstream over our lines(sometimes all 3 of us) and expect it to stay that instead of floating downstream where they should've been casting anyways. They've done this more than once. Even with 2 ounce led I'll kind of cast with the current cause you can't sink fast enough to prevent SOME drift.
Given the Sturgeon pattern lately here, I'm waiting for them to lock into one. I'll run down there and root the Sturgeon on signaling with my arms -- waving like a baseball coach telling the runner to head for home while screaming, "GO BABY GO BABY GO BABY .....OH YOU AINT STOPPIN HIM!!"
There, I'm done. Thanks for this rant section Corey. :)
(OK, so I wouldn't do this, but fantasizing over it feels GREAT!)

I hear you, Ben. Happens to me whenever I fish in metro waters. Recently a bud and I had been fishing a current break and catching loads of Channel Cats and Shortheads, probably for 3 hours. Then a guy shows up just upstream of me, chucks a stupid rubber shad lure WAY out in the current, and what do you know, tangles all three of us up. I knew what was going on, but wildly yanked multiple times in an exxagerated hook-set and nearly made the guy fall into the river as his rod jolted(chuckle chuckle). I untangled our lines, then he left. I guess some folks just don't understand the concept of current. ~andy

Fishing, if I, a fisher, may protest
Of pleasures is the sweet'st, of sports the best,
Of excercises the most excellent,
Of recreations the most innocent.
But now the sport is marred, and wot ye why?
Fishes decrease, and fishers multiply.
~Reverend Sir Thomas Bastard, 1498
