Pet Peeve

I'm too old to document my pet peeves. I let go of them 5 years ago. The last I let go is the guy from another part of the state or another state thinking that giving me 10-20 yards distance from fishing from me "is giving me a lot of room"

A father and son sandwiched me last year couldn't Fu#$@%ing believe it .I left quietly and went to another part and had good success win win
 
Yesterday I saw a guy and his little daughter setting up their rods and getting ready to fish right next to a sign that said stocked trout waters. I briefly thought about saying something, Then I thought who cares.

I get my fiber by chewing on black birch, and sassafras twigs when I'm out in the woods

I have a bunch of sassafras trees on my property and as a kid I used to make sassafras tea, but many moons ago I stopped when I read stuff like this:

Because it was youth mentor day? Anyone who would have a problem with kids getting a free mentor day before the opener has serious issues. Yes, done correctly and I'd support only the kid having a rod and the adult assisting. Occasionally, the adult will have to demonstrate or take over. If you have kids you know. this doesn't only apply to fishing.

From the perspective of opening day fishing, or Erie steelhead fishing, or the "glory days" at Fishermans Paradise, 10-20 yards is a lot of room.

I had no idea! They were only people I saw on a heavily stocked stream

Yesterday I attended the Valley Forge TU trout show, which has very good attendance in very tight quarters. What annoys me is that folks tend to stand around the raffle tables and it can be very difficult to even get a decent opportunity to view what is there. I hate crowds so I just gave up. Did have a nice conversation with Dave Rothrock after his presentation, which made it worthwhile to go.

Dave is such a wonderful man to speak with.
