[cool][#0000ff]I have been known to fire some half ounce sinkers at rude boaters myself. I quit using valuable lures when I lost some to snagged targets. If you whack someone a couple of times with a sinker...or crack a windshield...they will either leave or become worse. [/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]It's kinda like road rage though. You have to be careful who you choose to take on. You never know who is armed and just how wacko they might be. I have witnessed some armed confrontations around the country...all over fishing. Sad.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]That's why I have mellowed out a lot in my "advanced years". It's not that I have any greater tolerance for ignorance, stupidity and poor sportsmanship. [/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]As you know, I am a big boy and I can take care of myself pretty well.I just don't want to risk serious injury (or worse) simply because somebody else is a %$#&%. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Discretion is the better part of cowardice.[/#0000ff]
