Some great points here. In most cases while in a boat casting distance is to close. I will not hedge in on others and hope for the same respect. Bank fishing is different due to the lack of access. The bottom line should be respect. I ended up fishing side by side with a guy from the back this past weekend from the bank. He was a really nice guy and we ended up swapping tips, methods and even cooking tips due to him being from Minnesota and cooking styles being different.

Each circumstance is different but should still be ruled by curtousy and respect. Unfortunate that some guys don't have either.
