I was out crappie fishing tville last year while a tourney was going on. I was having success catching crappie and largemouth off some submerged trees. Well one of those tourney boys had been watching me for about 10 minutes before he eased over and shouted. " are you gonna move sometime today?" I seriously could not believe what i heard. So I got pretty pissed and told him no you can go anywhere else on the lake with a few cuss words in between there. He huffed and puffed and started his motor and hammered it down and drove right over the spot I was fishing. Waking me and ruining my fishing. Lucky I had a crappie jig on instead of a crank because I'd launched that bomber right at him. I haven't took a boat to tville since. I couldn't believe that someone would really do that. Thats the worst example of tourney fisherman I have. I've met others that have been awesome and chat with me as they worked around me while keeping their distance. And when they left the didn't hammer down on the throttle they just eased out and then opened up where they knew I'd not be waked. I've been on both sides of tourney fishers. In my experiences the older ones are the polite ones and the younger ones are the complete dbags. Just my experience though. I'm sure there is bad ones and good ones in both generations
