We even had a boat run between 3 other boats while we were fishing.
He was on plane. All of us gave him the finger. He still didn't know what
we were mad about.

I wasn't mad the first 2 times this guy did it, as he gave us about 50 yards or so. The last time he came about 25 yards up current, cut his engine and proceeded to drift between us and the beach. Then I guess he gets pissed off because we're catching every cast and he's not, starts his big engine and plows right through the fish. I guess third time was a charm...

This is the main reason I try hard to not fish the popular areas.

yep i got a few spots around there where i can catch fish and people just pass by and look at you crazy like... Why is he fishing right there? then they just keep on moving and i go back to catching. But sometimes i gotta go fight with the crowds at the beach or some of the more popular reefs

I've gone so far as to tell my whole crew to stop fishing and grab a drink until the potential potlicker is well on his way.

Ya got to know where the hard head holes are. When ya get a serious potliker that wants to follow you around ,ya lead him right to the honey hole.
