Tell me what you think
None of the following would have affected whether i finished in the money or not.
just thought i would share this as a learning exp.
Fished a tourny on saturday (first time in a draw tournament as a boater).
I have fished this club as a none boater. (and did my homework on how to act as a non-boater)
I drew a guy that could not stop talking which was ok, i can tune that out , but this is where it got frustrating.
I have to say this kid was probaly 18 but should have known better.
we were fishing canals and docks. I had a swing and miss on the popper i was fishing, next thing i know before the splash has settled down he is casting over my right shoulder to the rings in the water. He did this probaly five times before I said anything. I guess i should have said something the first time. The last straw was when i found a bedding fish (which would have filled my limit)
I was working the fish then al of a sudden his lure splashes right on top of the Ms. largemouths head.
I am pretty easy going and was trying to be a fair as possible by giving him good water to fish. After the bed incident I was so P.O.ed
It was a good day anyway but could have been more pleasant if Knuckle head would have shown a little coutesy.
I want to put togather some "co-angler guidelines" for the director to hand out at registration.
any suggestions or stories.
thanks
