Lots of folks haven't been taught how to have any manners & common sense whatsoever in about the last 30 or so years when it comes to fishing & hunting. How many have known folks that went back to hunting spots without asking the land owners permission? Common practice nowadays. I guess if i lived on Ky lake i'd lose my mind until i got use to it & finally realized i had to just say the heck with it & get my temper in check. lol

We’ll I just don’t view someone coming within 50 feet of me and then promptly leaving while I’m fishing on public waters the same as someone trespassing and hunting on private property. And frankly, and with all due respect, I’m surprised that anyone would view them as similar acts.

I fish to enjoy myself and if I would look at everyone coming within 50 feet of me as trespassers I think I would be miserable instead of having fun. It’s just not that big a deal in my opinion.

Now if they pull up and start fishing right in front of me it does bother me, but that is vastly different to then simply passing close out of common interest. If it’s only that I just usually echange pleasantries and wish them well. Why begrudge them wanting success?
