Y73/Gardens Area bottomfishing

if someone tossed a marker 10’ from my boat- they wouldn’t get it back, and i would probably roost them when i left.

Didn’t spray them but they were grabbing hold when we left.:wink:

we met saltfisher at 4KI sunday and intentionally anchored close to each other as plannedso we could shoot the breeze and socialize…while there we had several boats circle us(heck one time thought we were in the center of a wagon train)some circled and tossed near us, circled and tossed near us…I too was giving them the “well hey there boys why dont you just come tie off to our cleat” look…but they didnt seem to notice…guess its going to be a lonnnnng summer…better try to learn patience now…

I think it’s time for us to find some new shallow live bottom b/c it seems that the only issues come from the close wrecks…I’ve been to Y-73 where the 1st 4 or so numbers I punched in somebody was on but it NEVER crossed my mind to fish anywhere near them…What are these fools thinking or do they have no seamanship or eticut(sp)???

What does it matter if someone pulls up on you when you are bottom fishing a wreck? If you tied 4 boats together on a wreck and you were all fishing the same area it wouldn’t matter! Its D-bags like you that think you own wrecks that are the real losers!
Get a life! The fish are either bitting or they aren’t.
It has nothing to do with another boat pulling beside you 45 feet above where the fish are.

you tell 'em hot sauce…

Sure seems like things have changed out on the reefs over the years. I just always planned that people were going to be fishing close to me when on one of the few artificial reefs close to shore. 10’ is definitely too close, but there were many days we had conversations with people anchored near us and we did not have to yell to converse, nor did we know them. Met a lot of nice people. Some here may remember when king mackerel fishing was a big crze in the early eighties. One morning we counted 65 boats anchored around the tip of the north jetty. When a boat hooked up he released anchor and fought his fish through all the boats. I remember some funny moments, but very few cross words. I guess Charleston has just become so crowded now that we go to the water to get some space and are aggravated when we don’t get it. I don’t even care to fish the reefs that much anymore for this reason. If I do go it is normally a day off during the week.

hotsauce- it's d-bags like you that have no courtesy or respect for other anglers. i assure you that it matters in quality and quantity of fish caught. do you think no one fishes out from their boat. we catch many and lots of good quality fish by CASTING out rigs 50-100 feet from the boat. when an buttwipe like you anchors 15 feet from another boat you've just taken their spot. if i can hit you with a cast- you're too close, and i assure you that if i can hit you with a cast-I WILL.

It’s a thing called courtesy. You should try it some time. It is no diffrent than when you sit in a booth at a resturaunt and someone you don’t know comes and sits in the booth with you. It is not your booth so what the heck does it matter, right? Well wrong my friend, if I wanted to be that close to you I would have called you to go fishing with me. Give other people some space. As it happened for me, we were on the 4KI and including my boat there were 4 boats that day. Believe me there was plenty of structure to go around. Just be respectful of others.

hot sauce…its not t a matter of everyone thinking they own a place…but as someone said…its courtesy…have waved many a person over when we were tearing iup the spades and they were watching and catching zilch…and like Andy said…its fun to meet new folks…but its those that come flying by…circle/circle and barely miss your anchor that bothers me…have almost lost a anchor a time or two because of it…and actually had someone bounce a lead off of our boat once…and yes…we were there before they were…just give others a little space and be nice about it :slight_smile:

If you absolutly must create an alias because you aren’t a big enough personality or smart enough on your own to make a quirky comeback and someone is getting the best of you internetly speaking, I’ve done you a favor. I’ve created a fool proof guide to being an alias. You’re welcome. Follow these easy steps and you’re well on your way to annoying the crap out of some undeserving soul for the rest of the day.

Rule #1 “Sell your schtick for all its worth.”
Give it your all. If you’re not willing to sell it hard and fast, weakness will show through in a poorly developed schtick. CFers are getting smarter by the day and it takes a properly executed plan to fool them these days.

Rule #2 “Post a false report with pictures you pulled from another forum or some random internet site.”
A classic. Gives you instant ‘web cred’ with the local yocals. Pro-tip: Get your pictures from page 4 or 5 of Google image search. If your mako on the fly pops up on page one, you’re a dead man. Alias wasted.

Rule #3 “Always throw curveballs.”
If people don’t know what you’re talking about, then they can’t argue with you. This is what we in the bizz call, a no-brainer.

Rule #4 “Pretend to know something no one else does.”
Insight to the charter fleet can do this every single time. People worship the charter captains here and if they say someth

Spoken like a true master at it!! :slight_smile: (sorry sf23, left yerself wide open on that one!):slight_smile:

Andy It use to be called southern hospitaliy, I guess that was back in the day when you anchored up next to each otehr and shared bait and beer and cheered when soemone caught a big one. Now with all the folks that have moved here, there is a great deal of competition rather than folks looking out for one another and enjoying time together. Just remeber that is Gods secert hole and everyone knows about it. Yankee go home, just kidding

Local Boy, Just having fun.

i guess i was brought up fishing differently than others but unless u knew sum1 u didnt disturbed their fishing grounds. if u can hit sum1 anchor line u r terribly 2 close…ive had an instance where while trolling a boat screamed by within 30 ft and took all 4 lines with him…dad proceeded to chase this guy down and have a few choice words…then the guy decided to make the intelligent comment of the day and say “what the hell do u want me 2 do abt it, give u 20 bux?” yep u know it, dad flipped his lid…I thought I was going 2 watch the demise of 2 fisherman as they fought to the death…well dad stayed on board our boat and didnt jump ship…courtesy is the big word here…if you have none u have no business being out there…end of story
