Fishing and Fighting

Post by Chalk »

Heard there was a fist fight on the Lanark Beach by an esteemed tarpon guide and someone. Heard there was another confrontation at CIS by another esteemed tarpon guide and a coworker. It's not even June yet :smt005 :smt005

Hope it was not a BBF member having fisticuffs on the flats at Lanark :smt005 :smt005

I was home this weekend. But I've certainly been tempted. The carpetbaggers and interlopers think they have exclusive rights to my fish. :wink:

Going to be a long summer, especially with more boats coming in from the west.

I had one approach me on Saturday at WOT he turned off about 30 yards away. I'll either have my flare gun or video camera handy next time. :smt011 It’s gotten crazy over there lately and it seems to be the guides that migrate up this way along with the fish. A few of the local guides have been polite and actually ask if I minded them setting up close by. FWC or Marine Patrol needs to step up and start policing that area before someone gets seriously injured.

I heard that the FWC was patrolling TP last year after some folks exchanged pleasantries on the water :lol:

I get this a lot from the tarponettes when I am chasing MY reds and MY trout around the Lanark spit.

I don't care who you are, that's funny right there!

Can hear it now... a marriage between Rick Flair's trademark "WOOOOOOOO!", and Taylor Hick's soul patrol... "WOOOOOOOO! I'm on JT's hole patrol!!! WOOOOOOOO!" :smt005 :smt043 :smt044

Aaaahhhhh, the douschbaggery has begun. Anybody here thinks they have it bad, it's worse for me. When I'm out there staked out in my kayak, I get less respect than a crab trap buoy.

Time for someone to post proper fishing/boating etiquette. :P I would do it, but I don't know any. :-?
To fish, or not to fish, . . . those are the answers.

True I avoid crab trap bouys like the plague I have never had a kayak wrapped around my prop.
