- What should happen when an bass fishing angler steals another anglers spot during a professional bass fishing tournament? Should the angler confront the other angler and tell him to leave? What is the proper etiquette when an anglers slides into your honey hole? Should they be allowed to fish or should they turn around and leave?

Just because you can doesn’t mean you should. Keep your distance
AGREED!!! Cheers and tight lines!!
As a saltwater flats guide I would enter a local tournament in my home waters, with other guides, but also amateurs. I would often be followed, and encroached, quite closely at times, by amateur boats during the course of the tournament. It was a sensitive situation because many of them had fished with me. I still didn’t like it but never once said anything to them. Maybe I should have. But in doing so, I might have lost future trips with that client. I usually just moved on and eventually stopped fishing the tournament.
I think you have to be careful as a guide. I know anglers who follow guides to this day and that stinks. It's a weird topic and situation. Cheers and tight lines!!
slightly off topic but do you not think what that angler asked of you is kinda low?
like for me it’s to the point where if the lake isn’t closed to the public the competing anglers have no business communicating with locals at all, much less asking local anglers/boaters/jetskiers etc to move or stop enjoying their water so you can fish
i also feel it becomes a little of a grey area in terms of local information so it’s better to just ban any communication with locals on the water unless there’s a safety concern
but idk maybe it’s just me but that feels kind of greasy to ask a person to move but you were cool about it and tbh i would be too knowing a tournament is going on
I love the comment. I can see your side. I know as for me personally, I don't like fishing around people, but I wouldn't ever ask someone to move. I probably would leave the area first. Cheers and tight lines!!
I like the big Dawgs barking about spots, but I would share a spot no problem. I just want to make a few casts, and keep moving...go Steve 🎣💪🍻
I dont like sharing spots, but I will move on fast. It's nothing personal, but I like some space to enjoy fishing. Cheers and tight lines!!
What I would do is say that I was here first you can find a different spot to try yourself
Respect that. Cheers and tight lines!!
Heavy Hitters not withstanding there is more pressure this year on MLF guys since not everybody will be with them next year. Jordan should have tried to find other water - he was already in the cut
This is an amazing thought and comment. I didn't think about this at all. You might have hit it on this one. Cheers and tight lines!!
Let them fight it out. It's already boring enough with live scope. A little drama isn't a bad thing. I personally get bent from tournament guys blowing in to my area when I'm just fun fishing and most just ignore you and don't care or my favorite line is "I fish for living". Let them fight their equals and prove themselves worthy. It is a "competitive" sport after all.
This just happened to me on the St John's. I found some fish late in a Saturday tournament got 4th in that tournament the next day had another tournament on the river got 2nd in that one. Only saw 2 boat there all day both days come Tuesday for the Tuesday nighter there was no exaggeration 10 boats in the area and someone power poled down on the juice. I wanted to say something but couldn't I get a lot of boat carpeting jobs from this person. But this person is notorious for being a spot stealer
That stinks, but you did the right thing. Sometimes you can speak up, other times you shouldn't. Cheers and tight lines!!
Tournament fishing is a tough business.
I agree, and these days, it's more cut throat than ever before I think. Cheers and tight lines!!
Very simple ! Make rule 100 yards ! You defend ! First one there gets the spot other person should back off , that’s called respect and sportsmanship! I don’t care how much money is involved,
You don’t own the water….however many years ago I fished some bog trails in the northeast and there was more often than not a gentlemanly courtesy where guys wouldn’t encroon someone else’s spots unless it was discussed ahead of time or even at the moment.
I was in the top 10 in a 200 boat team tournament on the Hudson River out of Catskill NY. It was a two day event .
There was a boat fishing across the river from us almost all day on day one…they were not in the top 100…,, well the next day they had a higher boat number and went right up our door from the day before. Now back then you didn’t do that crap.
So I pulled in…didn’t say a word (this was a very small tide dependent spot) and started fishing .
Neither neither my partner I ever said a word we just continually fished towards the other boat, and they started backing off enough to when I got in the spot. I threw my anchor over which forced them to have to back off from us, according to tournament rules, and as they were driving away, one of the guys in the boat said something, I won’t mention it here, but you can bet that I took care of that when we got back to the way in at the end of the Day , I never did see that team ever again at any tournaments because they had a reputation for doing that kind of nonsense and like I said back then that stuff didn’t stand. It seems like these days there’s no sportsmanship anymore in any sport.
When the type of money is up for the winner, then things can get personal. Respect might be the word to use. But again, money matters most to some anglers. Cheers and tight lines!!
@@GetUrFishOnno argument there 😊
DROP THE ANCHOR!
LOVE THIS!! Cheers and tight lines!!
No to " playing Defense" riding in circles without fishing like JL did. If you're going to guard water I think you should have to be actively fishing it. Distance-wise 75-100 yds or two cast length distance apart . However, those who I have watched (live on on video) fish suck at judging distances. They think they cast 100 yds.
Lee was pushing his wt around on a rookie while saying I'm not crying about. I lost a lot of respect for him after that HH episode. He was constantly whining. He didn't whine about the other just as close... Coulter I think.
Lee has said a lot of things in the past. And your right, he wasn't really fishing at times so Hays or whomever should be allowed to fish. Cheers and tight lines!!
Easy enough to just cast without a hook and defeat the purpose of the rule.
@@devinwillis7787 that is why you have a mashal in the boat.
@@booster4470 easy enough just get a drop shot out and have it in the water. I’m then fishing the area
Day 613 of asking where i can buy a hat 😂.
Text me your address.
i thinking ask for permission whose already fishing their maybe come to an agreement where to fish. thats what think and thats what i actually do.
Great idea. I usually leave and try to fish without issues, and at times it hurts, but it is what it is. Cheers and tight lines!!
At what point is it no longer your spot?
One cast distance?
Ten cast distances?
The whole weedbed?
The whole bay?
Do I no even bother going fishing if someone else is fishing that day?
Good questions. I think a hundred yards is a good distance. I feel like if you can hear my conversations, then your to close, but that's me. Cheers and tight lines!!
100 yards. I like. We must spread the good message.
Some bent rod pattern clown did that to me at a 2 day regional, i splashed him with waer from jig crashing by the sideof his boat dude tried to get me d.q thabkfully other anglers seen the dude was a clown, losers find your own fish
Awesome comment bro. Glad you survived that dude. Cheers and tight lines!!
#takeakidfishing
Let them fight like hockey
Winner takes takes spot loser 2 min penalty and move on to next one
I’d might tune in if they do
Better than watching them ,watch a screen .
LOL thank you!! Cheers and tight lines!!
I think they should change their diapers and grow up their aweful at the ramps to us locals and think we should get out of their way it’s turned really bad
You don’t own the water….. first come first serve…. . End of story.
I respect that. Cheers and tight lines!!
