Trust me when I say that being a jackass on the water is not in any way limited to just tournament fishermen. Nothing pisses me off more than someone that takes 10 min to back their trailer down, can’t back their trailer without the boat on it, can’t get their boat on the trailer once they finally get the trailer in the water, or sits in the launch trying to get their motor cranked because the boat only gets put in the water 3-4 times a year. It’s just part of it. Everyone should just take a deep breath and be courteous of the others trying to enjoy the resource too. Now correct me where you think I’m wrong or you go ahead, drop back 15 yds behind center and punt.


This is major truth. Non tournament fishermen, and pleasure boat folks, subconsciously equate the speed of the boat with the temperament of the fisherman. Oh you drove past me on the river going really fast, you are such a rude jerk, you think you own the water. I make no excuses for the behavior of some tournament fishermen, plenty of them are rude jerks, but the vast majority of tournament fishermen understand water etiquette far more than pleasure boaters. It's just like driving on the road, the majority of folks who look like pleasure boaters act like they're the only car on the highway, no situational awareness.
