Wow are we at the point where you either watch ppl get bullied and letting these guys just take over? And just rather watch and do nothing is better then not stepping up helping your fellow fisherman out? is there no way of getting rid of these jerks?

Such behavior is, unfortunately, to be expected during "combat fishing" and if you can't deal with it then you should probably just not fish such spots where you know the yo-yos will gravatate to.

I've learned over the years to just go for a few hours at first light during the "combat season" before all the obnoxious people start to show up. After that I ask myself...do I really need more fish for the freezer??!! Probably not. Rather than get stressed out over fishing, which to me totally defeats the point of going fishing, I just do something else like go for a hike or bike.

fishing the hot spts on the ched allowed me to cope with such fishermen. most of the I will stand my ground and post up.kind of like who will leave first.its kind of a funny situation though, if im not getting a sniff I'll just move on down the run.
like alot of you are saying there is a ton of people who have no regard for ethics. sometimes its better to bite the bullet once in a while and move on. you cant let such people ruin your "escape". "real recognize real"  and sometimes if this occurences happen other fishermen will look at me and mouth "wtf" and vice versa.

 once again, at the end of the day dont let this behaviour ruin your day, the river is long enough where you have to trek many minutes to find "salvation" .those people arent willing to do so.

(sorry for what may an incoherent thought process...)

Non-violent solution -> empty 3 ketchup packets into mouth, proceed to start coughing/gagging while spitting out ketchup.  Betcha the jerk will leave.

Theres combat fishing tho, and then theres just plain out a**hats which seem more abundant on the cap then elsewhere. Was just out on Sunday with a friend who decided to climb down to the pool below Dog, was down there for about 45 mins before some a**hats leaving the lower side of the Dog who decided they didnt think anyone with more balls then them should fish down there and proceeded to start throwing rocks at him. Hope their aim gets better before we see them again.

Or keep a small whoopee cushion in your side pocket if they get too close.....
Or start talking about Jesus and salvation when they slide in next to you....

Sucks that you guys let him ruin your day and, affectively, encouraged his behavior. Oh well, we can't all be heros :P

Thanks for the report; glad to hear there are loose lipped fish in there! Looks like you guys were fishing well after first light too! :) :)

Or just start hitting the gym and eating a lot of protein. Not only will you become more intimidating to the average joe, but your farts will become more frequent and smell HORRID. ;D ;D

"Ah, a follow fisherman! How are you today brother?! Fine day to be out enjoying the Lord's wonderous creation isn't it?! Say brother, remind me, what did the Lord say about the fishes and salvation? What? You haven't heard of the Lord and his good word?! Why brother, you simply must hear the Good Word!! ... .... ..."  ;D ;D
