I really learned to dislike them all. Fishing this morning and a big tourney is launching for the past 30 min. Had one guy close enough we could have fist bumped...he was in a 20ft boat...me in a 16 ft jon. Waiting for them to all run to far ends of the lake so I can fish in peace.
Shouldn't these guys be drinking their spiced lattes dressed in their ll bean flannels
Ok I feel better

I don't get it, these folks buy a $50,000.00 and up boat and then of course you need a new color matching truck to tow this boat and all of this for fish you don't keep. On Lake Erie these Tournament Walleye boats are about $70,000.00 and up and for what 6 fish? I don't get it. Do these boat owners family's ever get to enjoy a fresh caught fish dinner

I figured there was a tourney today with the boats we saw as we went over the causeway heading home from the camper.

It is still a better day than working in an office! Indeed. It is like sitting in my deer stand listening to the neighbor blow leaves or his 5 beagles barking non-stop. Nothing I can do about it but complain. I keep going back voluntarily so yeah I agree!

When I hunt my neighborhood you never know what will show up. Cutting grass or street party.

I enjoy fishing, it never seemed that fun to me to add money and competition to such a relaxing way to spend a day.

I really like fishing, but at the same time I really liked water skiing too. Fish in the early morning, once the first speedboat was out I'd somehow get enough people together so that we could ski. Once all the boaters were out, skiing wasn't that fun any more, the water was too rough.

Once all the boaters were out, skiing wasn't that fun any more, the water was too rough. Not me, as a kid everyone would pull me from my fishing hole to go tubing. I was dug in like a tick. When they would get back I would show them the 3 green sunfish and turtles I caught...none were impressed! I do that these days though as my kids don't fish and like to ski and swim. So I go early and then take them.

We just do it all from the same boat. Our ski boat is our fishing boat as well. Get out early and tube when the water is still somewhat calm and then we find a cove to park and fish until we are ready to head back to the ramp. I would like to get an actual fishing boat one of these days.
