I asked a fishing question.
I got slammed for days by a bunch of good ol’ boys.
I asked why, they can’t answer.
They feel justified and good about it, so be it.</font id=“Times New Roman”></font id=“size5”>
pathetic [puh-thet-ik]; ludicrously or contemptibly uninteresting </font id=“blue”></font id=“size4”>
This is apparently all they have, let em’ have it…</font id=“red”></font id=“size5”>
Dude, can you do me a favor and tone down the size 2000 font … I’m thinking they get the point already … oh and FYI - they don’t like being called “good 'ol boys” … regional people find it offensive when you ridicule their dialect … oh wait … I did just use the word “skeerd”, didn’t I … opps - sorry about that guys … it wasn’t meant as a regional slam … it’s just a word I use … LOL … anyways, where was I …
Oh yeah, it’s time to take Rover out back and put a .22 to the back of his head … you know what I mean?? Said another way … let’s let this thread die … it really has nothing to do with Inshore fishing anyway … LOL

but in all seriousness ... what exactly IS an ASSHAT???
This.
I wasn’t saying you were scared. I was saying you seem to feel free to be a net jerk, because you don’t have to live with us. And I do agree with you on some things; you do have a big mouth.
Oh yeah, regarding your reading comprehension, somehow you missed the fact that I was actually calling you an asshat. Don’t worry, the rest of the guys got it.
I would fish with you too, but only in fresh water.
I got an old ‘96 waverunner for free and rigged it for fishing. I like trolling with two flush deck mount spinning reel holders off to the side and sight cast from the rear. Can do a lot of fishing and catch many species from surf to jetties to creeks. I would never purchase a jet ski but it is actually pretty fun. Prob because it was free and it’s a little different than my 22’ sea hunt.
I’m from Brooklyn, and all my good fishing buddies are southerners. I get my balls busted all of the time for the way I “tawk”. Some of the best guys I know. If some of my buddies (southern boys) came to fish Peconic Bay or Montauk with me, they would get there balls busted. Its all in fun. Just dont spray me with your jet ski when im fishing and i think its all good.
Also, I have gotten more sound and great advice from my southern friends who quickly could have shut the door on me because I was a yank. To be honest, as much as I love new york, I dont know if the reversal would happen in NY. For every bad egg on this site, there is 15 good guys trying to help people enjoy the water.

uhhhhh ... your picture didn't take ... it's OK, I get the point ... sort of ... a red X in the middle of a box does have a sort of strange analogy to it ... :smiley: (by the time I finished typing this - your picture finally took - but I like my original response sooooooooooo)
As for the "reading comprehension" ... I ... uh ... wasn't asking for any explaination ... the other ASSHAT was ... 1st part is "reading" and the 2nd part is "comprehension" ... :wink:
I'm not going to bother pointing out grammatical errors - it's the friggin' internet - who cares ... LOL
Not sure what you mean by, "I wasn't saying you were scared. I was saying you seem to feel free to be a net jerk, because you don't have to live with us." ... that's essentially saying, "you wouldn't say that to my face" ... uh ... if you're being an ASSHAT, I'm going to tell you you're being an ASSHAT ... and for the record, I'm NOT an ASSHAT ... I'm a "DIC

21’ triumph cc
150 merc
I agree COMPLETELY … I just like having fun playing around with the “bad eggs” … LOL
Hey - on a side note … how do you like your Triumph? Isn’t that one of those “you can cut it in half and it’ll still float” boats, or am I thinking of something else?
haha understandable. Im looking forward for my own “bad egg” moments.
Triumph is a beast. The only boat ive ever been on that im not scared of anything. It slices through water (and oyster beds). Got a 4 stroke so the gas is great. I think they discontinued making new ones though right?

I gotta ask … why would you only fish with me in freshwater? I don’t know a friggin’ thing about freshwater … well … very little anyway … unless that’s the point … feeling a little protective about the sacred fishing grounds of your Moultrie forefathers???

Friend, the more you write the more you make my points for me. You really are clueless, making all sorts of assumptions about many different people and straying way out of your lane. However, since we do seem to be idling this thing down a little, apology accepted.
REALLY? I beg to differ.
cut and paste this into google;
“great south bay fishing forum”
look at 1st or second one…
Not only whats running, WHERE, WHAT BAIT, TIME, HOW etc.
No ball busting, no screw you its my fish, yada yada.
I’m ok, its just hysterical.
None of the Ball breakers can say what offended them to start this crap.
Its apparently inside of them, and thats where it will stay.

Assumptive???
I think it is YOU who are being assumptive - I would ask you to be specific as to what I'm being assumtive about, please?
As for apologies ... I would offer one ... if I thought that I was being inaccurate or improper ... and I'm hardly going to apologize to myself for calling myself an immature dick ... but I will accept your apology for bein

Now that we’ve both apologized, and accepted, I’m heading over to the polygamy thread.
Touche’ NYallker. I understand where you are coming from.
Although you might disagree, and I agree sometimes its frustrating not to get the responses you ultimately are looking for, I still believe there there are a bunch of good guys on this site that will help out.
To offer my piece of advice about your original question, I have had great luck on gulp peeler crabs. Everytime i start getting skunky these things just work magic. Best of fishing to ya!

ooooohhhh .. polygamy ... naaaaa, I have no need - I already have the perfect Wife ... she MAKES me take HER fishing ... then she cleans the fish when we're done and 75% of the time she cooks it, too ... the odds of me finding another woman that'll do all that AND put up with my shiot ... ZERO ... LOL
it's my Wife's fault we HAVE to fish now!!!

wow that was an entertaining read lots of useless babbling and arguing about who has the biggest pair… a few good thoughts were somehow in there and barbrawang was the voice of reason as usual
anyways i think it goes both ways. jerks are jerks… wherever they are from
how about this analogy… jetskis are very similar to bikes. there are many operators of both that are respectful and follow the rules, but unfortunately there are quite a few idiots who think they don’t have to. go downtown and watch any intersection for 10 minutes and you will see bike riders break multiple traffic laws… and then they wonder why they get hit by cars… give me a break
There are good and bad in the use of any mode of transportation. As you seem to have some calm about you, I am sure if an Australian neighbor said they were going to take a bike ride to the beach you wouldn’t start screaming at them that they don’t look where they’re going and who the hell do they think they are, go back down under and hump a kangaroo, etc.
To me, that’s what happened here.
I immediately get labeled a transom jumping fool that hates the south, lol. No one even asked how i was rigged, If I jet ski fish in other areas, etc. It became an immediate bash session.
I have a thick skin and not losing any sleep over this.
A lot of folks got to vent, good for them, lol.
I got an excellent # of actual replies and PM’s with great info and hopefully I’ll put the info to good use soon.
