If you are a bank fisherman, just start throwing rocks at the boats.  They will move.  Boat fisherman, if someone can throw a rock from shore and reach your boat, you are too close, quit being a moron.

You really think that is a good way to go?  Do you think that encourages all of us to get along or might it actually be a disincentive?

I hope your joking.  Throwing rocks at folks is not cool.
Yes Rocks are great fun. Very cool, dude man hey bro. Think of it as an act of parenting of sorts.  if no one teaches the dummies in boats getting too close a lesson they will never learn.  Throw a rock off the side of their boat, they will give the bankies much more room in the future.

I'd do a little research about throwing rocks. Especially if you're in Pasco.

No, throwing rocks is stupid and illegal and a poorly thrown rock could kill someone.  Don't be a fool.
I know I've lost it, let me know if you come across it

....the way I always fished is I kept boats at bay with a long distance casting rod.... target practice was always a past time when fishing was slow

when in the boat, I stayed out of casting distance. I had a hard top but... I liked my windows

exactly.  Sometimes nice words and safe spaces just don't work out. you gotta get the message across somehow.Throw a rock or send a 4 oz. to a boat load of 206ers and watch them slither back to their safe space.

Like I said before, we pull up our gear, slide past the bankies and give them a wide berth but if someone hits my boat with a rock or lead I'm either snagging your gear or paying you a visit on the bank.  Usually the goobers who give you lip run like cockroaches when you head for shore.  :chuckle:
