I was fishing the local tourny last night.....nothing to report except bad luck, but anyways, I had a few fisherman come by two spots I was fishing, and mark their GPS. I could see them doing it, and they were just about casting distance away. This kind of aggravated me, since I put a lot of time into finding my fishing spots. I guess this has become quite a problem with the lazy some beeches that just want everything handed to them. I myself find joy in finding fish on my own. I expect next week, there will be boats sitting on both places.

Sorry I had to rant on this, but it really got to me last night.
 
Here's what I'm going to start doing Jon. Any time a boat getts too close, pick up the old binoculars & stare straight @ them untill they go away. They may tell me I'm #1 but most will leave prety quick. And if they stay I might learn somthing!
 
, let me know when you want to ddt ck that eng. maybe we can rig a water pressure line of that promax to cool of those too close,
 
I don't think much has changed in the last few years it's just now everyone has gps. Used to everyone would just remember where they saw you at then come back. I think we've all done it sometime in our life. It's just some people have no respect about how they go about it. Just think if it was'nt that way only the 1st person that ever fished the entrance to chesterfost or the 1st person that fished under the bridge at mudcreek would have right to those spots. emoDoh That's scary to think about. emoScratch
 
Look at the bright side. Someone too stupid to find their own spots and fish probalby won't be able to figure out how to catch them on your spots.

I am amazed at the people that will take my Map of the Month articles, go out and hit them once with a half dozen casts and leave, never to come back, thinking there are no fish there. Most will not take the time to learn how to set up on them and figure out the little details of a spot that make it work.

If people use those articles right they will check them out, look at the pattern and then try to find other similar spots of their own.

Most good anglers I do articles with don't mind giving up some spots since they know conditions change fast enough it doesn't really matter.

Saying all that - it really pisses me off when folks do that to me!
