Moving Brush Piles

Really stinks when regulars on the lake watch and fish stuff you work to build . But then refuse invites to help with the next build .

I personally know a bunch of tourney bass fishermen that keep a treble hook made out rebar tied to rope in their boats just for this purpose. I know one guy that will move/dump a pile into super deep water if he knows your catching fish on it. I don't think its right and while not illegal still not right.

That would be a big mistake if caught by locals on some lakes.

Never would of thought about moving a brush pile. The human animal is the strangest of all. Thats like stealing, if it aint yours leave it alone!!

I'm with brokepole on this...people are crazy...it's fishing...what has happened to common sense and respecting one another? I fish for enjoyment and to get away from such non-sense. On more than one occasion I have had (and sure you have too) another boater pull up right next to me and start fishing...I've never said a word to them. On each occasion it was an exercise in self discipline to just let it be. I have a competitive spirit, sure, but going to such lengths to go off on an interloper or move brushpiles? That's just ignorant. Some people have no self control, morals or conscience...in my opinion its best to stay clear of these individuals and take a deep breath before reacting to what they do.

I think Nimrod and CMJ just try to stir up trouble.....just because you do all the work doesn't mean you shouldn't share with us lazy folks! We need a place to catch fish....and it's easier on your spots!

Fair game to fish, but its not right by any means to move it.

**BigRiverMarine** · 03-30-2015, 09:53 PM

It's wrong to move someone else's brush. PERIOD!!!

This is where you and I are at odds. No way is this right. I personally claim 100 yards around all my brush piles and feel this should be the standard for all lakes. If I run across a jug/marker and it doesn't have a name on it, I consider that marker trash and put that trash in it's appropriate place.

Carry on.
