What the hell is this ????
"1980 Bulldogs" wrote in message ... We recently had a club tournament on our home lake here in GA. I had been on fish for about a month(practicing). I told the non-boater that drew out with me what I was doing, where we were going, & what bait I was catching them on. Well it became a fiasco with this guy. If he wasn't hung up on the bank...YES ON THE BANK, he was in the bottom of my boat changing lures over and over. I told him, this is what I have been using for a month, stick with it. Finally, he tied on a Norman DD22 crankbait(huge crankbait)....on a spinning rod !!! I was drop-shotting on a rocky point and the next thing I know he's wadding up his crankbait in my line. So once I get untangled from him and drop down to the brushpile I'm fishing, HE GETS IN MY LINE AGAIN!!! Now I know that club fishing is supposed to be fun and I know its supposed to be used as a learning tool in some cases. I suggested things to help him, it went in one ear and out the other. This guy went to the beat of his own drummer. It was almost like fishing with a 6 y/o. So, I put my drop-shot rod down and started down a section of rip-rap throwing a buzzbait. He breaks out a c-rig and asks if I could slow down. I said, "partner we have less than 20 minutes before weigh in, I couldn't fish where I needed to so I'm pushing to get bites you're just gonna have to keep up now". I know that makes me sound like an a-hole, but enough was enough. I tried everything in the book to try to put him on fish. I even sat down at one point and let him have my rod and bait and the the trolling motor to himself. Still he zeroed. How would you guys have handled this?

... point and let him have my rod and bait and the the trolling motor to himself. Still he zeroed. How would you guys have handled this? I wouldn't worry about it. Next month you will be fishing with somebody else. P.S. I fish crank baits on spinning tackle. Topwater too. -- ** FREE Fishing Lures ** Weekly drawing ** Public Fishing and Boating Forums ** www.YumaBassMan.com |

I don't hear any music, stupid or not, because I use an ascii based reader fro mail and newsgroups, so I just see the underlying html tags that put the stupid music in there. I wish people would stop trying to do that to usenet. RichZ© www.richz.com/fishing |
