They choose to stay in the fight so they can attract viewers who could otherwise care less about their fishing.

I can see it both ways. I’ve had boat covers snagged and ruined from fishing lures , but I also fish around docks. I wish that if people snagged my boat cover they would just come on to my dock and Remove the hook instead of trying to yank it out and cause more damage.

I'm a fisherman who avoids people docks , here' why. I used to own a lakehouse, fisherman can be real tools themselves. They hook your dock with treble hooks for you to step on , hook your boat covers and tear them trying to get their lures back , when your sitting having a conversation on your dock they will come up and fish just to piss people off, no other reason but to start a confrontation . This is why some of the dock owners go mental. I also own ski boats , when I am in it i get harassed by fisherman who think they own the lake. When in my bass boat they act normal. Some people go out of their way to piss off anyone who is not a fisherman. As much as i like to fish, allot of fisherman are just complete Aholes who think they own the lake, exactly what they accuse the property owners of.

I keep my distance whenever I see people out on their docks. If my lure gets hung up, I retrieve it without causing any damage. It may have cost a lot or is one of my favorites. Ski boaters, who can pick any part of the lake, want to ski in the area I'm fishing. I will look around and see a large area with no boats yet they are right over my way. The bottom line is for everyone (and that means all) to be respectful of the other person.

It is a catch 22. Its usually the guy respecting people and their stuff getting an ear load for other irresponsible a holes.

I'd fish that dock every day of my life after this.

Imagine having one of those beautiful properties next to the water, and then finding out that this foul-mouthed guy is your next-door neighbor. I doubt the Fish and Game warden was able to talk any sense into him. He's the type who will end up in the news eventually for committing some serious act of senseless violence.

Indeed! Thanks for the comment.

I grew up on the St John’s River in central Fla I have bass fished my hole life I’ve had golf balls hit at me tomatoes thrown at me. One guy was so mad he took his fishing pole, which I would guess an ounce to 2 ounce egg sinker he was casting, trying to hit me in my boat, and I have even had them meet me at the boat ramp and fight because of it you handled this incredibly well, but what makes me more happy is that you know there’s such a thing called harassment of outdoorsman you wouldn’t believe how many people doesn’t know about it and that they could actually do something about the people that think they own everything or is against what you’re doing. Thank you sir for this video I am positive it’s going to help those who do not know about it much luck on the water. Be safe.

I used to fish a lot and would occasionally run into problems with dock owners. They actually believe they own the lake!! I had a time or two where they would call a cop and I would talk, very calmly, to the cop and he would explain it to the dock owner, YOU DON'T OWN A PUBLIC WATERWAY!! You own the land up to the edge of the water, but not a lake OR the lake under YOUR dock. Most dock owners understand this and I've had a few come out, very friendly, and talk with me. Why can't people just try to get along with other people?? I think it's that "God complex" that some people get when they talk about THEIR property. God is the one who REALLY owns it and he just lets us use it for a while.

Fisherdicks abuse dock owners all the time. Its time fisherdicks were held to account.

This dock owner is just a complete as*hole ...good for you standing your ground.

As an attorney, I still cannot understand why people believe if they own a house or a dock that they somehow own the water too.

If you don't want people to fish your dock. Sink a Christmas tree mark it with a float and put a sign that says please don't skip or flip my dock, fishing structure under marker. Put an arrow pointing at the marker.

I'm a dock owner and whenever I see someone even get CLOSE to my dock, I'm just like OH HELL NAW, I drop everything I'm doing , march right down there and .....ask them if they've caught anything!

Had the same problem in Brisbane a few years ago now, only he was throwing stuff & called the cops .But the table was turned, he ended up with a nice fine for polluting water ways .for some reason some dock owners think they own everything in sight.

Dude, how do you move onto a lake and NOT expect people to fish your dock. That’s part of land ownership 101 when you live on a lake.

The way I look at it if you’re that damn worried about your boat don’t seem like you would want to leave it sitting in the water to get all crusty and stained to begin with so I would probably pull my boat out or make it to where if I had a boat lift I could protect my boat from the sun with a canvas and it would also double as protection from us disrespectful fishermen when I was not using it I get that it’s your right to park the boat there that you paid for the dock but at the end of the day the dock is in a public waterway so all you big tough guys that own homes on the lake get over it if you don’t like dealing with it become a pond owner and you still don’t own the water there either but at least you can say what happens unless its owned by multiple people. People just love to bitch And I’m just here to tell you you throw a damn little firecracker at my boat I’m slinging some bullets back your way because I’m in fear of my life at that point!😉. Tight lines!!

Song kicks on and it took me back to watching fishing with bill dance as a kid with my dad.

I love it that anglers have rights in the US, in England if we want guaranteed safety and privacy we have to fish private commercial waters. I fish a local public lake from the bank that is only about 200yds from my house, on one occasion a woman came right up next to me and started feeding the ducks bread and caused absolute mayhem, there are signs everywhere saying feeding the ducks and swans is not permitted, bread is bad for them and also they start fighting, the lake is massive yet she chose to come and feed the ducks right next to me, there were no ducks in the area I was fishing, they followed her as she was walking along the bank, luckily the water baliff was in the area and saw what she was up to and he took her details and kicked her off the lake and I suspect she was fined.

People the world over seem to thing they have the right to do whatever they want ,whenever they want, without regard to anyone else.

I say that dock looks like some pretty good fishing. Maybe you should drop a pin on a map so everyone can go fish there and say hi.

The dude has a sweet house and still needs to be a POS. That is what I call a bad winner.

What’s with people now days thinking they own the lake? That guy needs an education

Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones w/Bluetooth comes to mind.

Maybe you should practice throwing a 6 oz egg sinker . It tends to leave a helluva mark when it hits flesh .

I'm petty as hell and if he went through all the trouble to harass me like that, I would go back every weekend for months and only fish his dock.

The homeowners experience with others in the past does not give him the right to act like a spoiled child. He needs to grow up .

I guess my experience has taught me a different perspective. My boss has had a dock for 22 years on a big lake in Iowa & fishermen abuse it & his boat constantly lol. Nothing like taking the kids down for a boat ride & finding piles of fish guts blood stains & trash all over your dock lol. (regular occurrence) I went up there once & was fishing off the dock waiting for him so we could hit the lake & 2 guys in a boat were fishing the dock. 1 hooked my bosses boat cover with a shitty cast. Then after yanking a 2 inch hole in it that matched the other 3 similar holes from previous fishermen, despite me telling him I'd get it out he trolled over & smacked into the boat lol. I spoke up only to be threatened cursed at & flipped off in 2 languages. We called on them but nothing ever happened. This guy was an aggressive douche but that probably stems from experience not just Karen-ism.

No one should have to deal with that. Sorry it’s been his experience. However, I did nothing wrong I never touched any of his property and had he asked nicely as opposed to being a jackhat, I likely would have moved on at his request. Since he started off by telling me I was in the wrong when I wasn’t, he lost all credibility and sympathy from me.

I agree Scott, it's about respect, whether you are on the land with a dock in the water or in the water casting around someones dock. As much as we want to believe that every fisherman respects someones property, that is just not the case- I am not defending this particular person, he certainly was not respectful to the guys in the boat. However, it is a two way street and he may have had an experience similar to what your boss experienced, which right or wrong would tend to cause some aggravation. My dad has a small camp on a small lake in east texas, he has a trot line in the water with jugs about every 5ft from the bank- he has had guys troll right through this line about 10 times in the past few years even though the line is very clear to see- I told him to go to tractor supply and pick up some stainless steel cable and let em run through that - again - its a 2 way street

Why should anyone be allowed to build a private dock on public property. If you are using a public waterway for your private use.suck it up buttercup you do not get to have private use of public property

Some places the dock owners should beware of harassing fisherman such as my state the law reads that any structure affixed to the bank of public water is automatically the property of the state. But every one still treats it as private property any way as far as I know I hav`nt heard of any one contesting the law but it`s clearly in print.

It's always the fisherman who gets the lecture....

I NEVER go fishing unarmed . You never know what kind of looney toon you'll run into.
