Perhaps, but if that's the case he should say something and still not paddle right where I'm casting.

Can you fish new years eve morning? Either Newport or Mission, depending on wether I have lots of time or little.

Nothing wrong with rollin by for a chat n "having any luck". But setting up right down drift of you, not so cool. Sadly I almost expect it from boaters, or big sporties in LJ, but not a kayak. Maybe just a newbie that couldn't find some one to go out with. Mike

That is what I was thinking. Of course you would think even a newbie would say hello and ask if you mind if he hangs around. The thing is working with these ME generation kids I'm finding out they don't know even the basics of common courtesy. Some learn it but many are so coddled growing up with their parents teaching them how entitled they are they just aren't learning some of the basics.

I'm with you, just let me know which you want to do.

I don't know what the guy was trying to do, I'm just trying to put a positive spin on what happened. I had that happen at Lake Skinner once, every time I moved an overloaded boat full moved right in on me. I got tire of it and tried to swamp their boat but the ranger caught me and told me since there was no body contact with the lake I wasn't allowed to drown idiots. Then he went over and told them to quit parking on top of me every time I caught a fish.
