I would be considered a youngin' by many people who knew me. Yet I hate combat fishing. I don't like being around people who don't know what they are doing. (I'm not saying I feel this way about all people in all situations). And ya know, I'm sure some people feel the same way about me because of my age.
If I know I am next to someone who has knowledge or knows the system then I want to learn from that person. It's probably the rude and uncourteous people who bother me the most. Why would anyone fight over a quote, "stupid" fish??? Are they really worth getting injured, or how about death?
Just letting of a little steam here. I have had bad experiences with mean people! Mean people suck nice people... Just thought a little comedy would lighten things up. I think that people should try to assist other people in learning the ways of the river, and then there SHOULDN'T be ANY problems.
