Normal,, at least on boats with no idea[bigrolf]


it may come as no surprise, but caravans work the same way on open sites..


Only somebody upstairs knows why...

and same applies to empty car parks and empty picture theatres

And in a similar way to Land Rovers parked on their lonesome attracting like-for-like, but in that case it's ok.....

[strangy]

...and camping.

[Homestar]

Yeah, camping and caravanning I get this a lot which bloody annoys me - why go out bush to relax then go camp right next to someone else? They might as well stay home and argue with the neighbours...

I’m a bit past being polite these days so before they even turn the car off I’ll go tell ‘em to **** off.

[Grumbles]

Indubitably so to all so mentioned.......parking, camping, fishing. Even in queues at the auto tellers where they queue at body touching distances.

Had a couple of tourist anglers join me uninvited whilst spinning for trout on a long pebble beach recently. No-one else on the river within half a km either upstream or downstream but they stood either side of me at arms length and commenced spinning. :mad:

You should have pulled your line in, then lobbed a big rock into the water and walked off. [emoji106][emoji38]

[Grumbles]

I have been known to do exactly that in times past.......[bigwhistle].....but.....as it turns out this may have affected the anglers more than the fish.

Recently a guy I know turned up with his GSP to wave his fly rod around. His dog immediately jumped in and began swimming around trying most unsuccessfully to catch the pools resident black ducks. I thought fishing was now a lost cause but he began casting and was using a nymph pattern. Well.... it surprised the heck out of me when, regardless of the dogs activities or proximity to his fly, he caught fish...several in fact and all decent pan sized browns.

Yep this.

Up at Corowa for the Military Swim in at the Caravan Park we always stay at. Set up camp with friends and told them to park their car at one end or else someone will pull in right next to us. He did, but said no one would come that close would they? Well, just a couple of hours later, despite there being a spare acre of grass, a van pulled in within 2’ if where he’d parked the D4. Had he not parked it there they would be camped in our site I’m sure... It gets pretty packed by the end of the week - that’s fine as we’re all here for the same reason but there’s absolute no need this early in the week.

He's lonely. Wants new friends.

Send in Wes.

[Homestar]

Wes isn’t here this week or I would have let him go right when they started eating tea... [emoji16]

Go to my favourite kingfish spot and anchor up. Within 1/2 hour another boat turns up and the skipper has his head buried in his plotter/sounder combo. He and his fishing buddy then have around ten goes at setting their anchor. On the 11th attempt they tie off and when the slack is taken up and the boat settles on its mooring he is no more than 2 metres from the side of my boat where I have 2 rods set. He then comes out from under the canopy and gives me the "She'll be right mate" look and proceeds to start rigging up.

By this stage my rod in the flat holder is almost rubbing on the side of his boat. I then calmly point out that he may want to think of moving as you require a bit of room when one of the metre plus fish decides to take a bait. He does not agree ignores me as if I am not there and starts to drop baits over the side using rods and gear more suited to catching bream. Next minute I'm on and off goes my kingie straight under his boat and when the line rubs on his keel it's all over.

I then got a bit more vocal at which time he starts yelling and screaming. I have fished this spot a hundred times and while being on the spot is good, the reef they inhabit is quite large and being 20 or 30 metres away you will still catch fish.

As I already had a nice fish in the esky I tried to pull my anchor only to find his was tangled with mine. I was sorely tempted to cut his off seeing as he was making no attempt to help. I finally just put the ball on and drove away at which time my anchor came free.

I am happy to fish in close and give tips and hints to those who, as was the case with this bloke, had limited fishing knowledge but there has to be a bit of common decency and that in my book means not dropping an anchor so close as your boat is on top of the other one. I would like to say which ethnic group they were from but morons are morons no matter where they come from.

I would of sliced his line...

Although I’ve been on a drop, mouthed off to a new arrival and been met by a firearm!!!
