On the same note as my earlier thread I have a couple quesions about how you all handle various situations that arise while fishing.
1) People that get so close to you when fishing that they are almost hitting you with their poles while casting just to try and put it in the same spot your casting.
2) The people that stand a ways down and cast over your line while trying to drop it around the same spot you just got a bite.
3) The same people that after all this have the nerve to ask you for some fish when they are about to leave empty handed.
However I will say this. I fish for two reasons. One is to stock my freezer because I love fish and number two is because I enjoy fishing. Once number one is accomplished I usually have no reservations about fishing and giving away crappie. I also have no reservations about showing courteous people what bait/jig I am using and how I am using it. Going so far for the same people as to give them a couple jigs heads/skirts/slip bobbers and stops/and tips so they may have a chance at some decent fish when they aren't biting for them. I'm not saying im "Mr. Crappie", but I have learned a thing or two about bank fishing that some people haven't learned to grasp and most has been learned through the teaching of other people when I was having my BAD days when I started crappie fishing. That all said I would appriciate opinions to the above as I am a somewhat recent transplant to Arkansas from Illinois and not to offend, but Southerners take things a little different then some.
