Bass fishin, pan fishin, cat fishin, motorcycling, bicycling, driving, playing basketball, baseball, at work or just walking down the street. You will always run into those with no manners/etiquette or even hateful at any given time. Only person we can change is ourself. Posting this topic for the most part wasn't a bad idea but look at the troubles it has brought out. Now we have pan fishermen mad at bass fishermen and vise versa. We all need to keep in mind that "IF" we generalize something, someone will take it as if you're talking about him/her and run with it, not just here but in everyday life. We all share the water for a common purpose, enjoying ourselves. While on the water just go by the Golden Rule, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" and things should work themselves out . . . over time. Most folks don't care about what others think but being polite can be contagious too just like a smile or the hiccups. =))
