Combat fishing/Meat fishing/Shoulder to shoulder: Reiter and Blue Creek
Bloodhound: The guy coming down river fast after you just landed a fish. Also known as a Gnat. No real threat just annoying.
Pirate: The guy waiting in his rig at the trailhead, usually with friends, who saw you carry fish out the previous day.
Low baller: The guy who undercuts you in a drift.
Cracker low baller: A low baller who casts over your line. Usually the first cast is a bird's nest.
Polite low baller: A low baller who asks first and then progresses to cracker status.
Low ballers almost always appear after you just missed a strike or saw a fish roll in the tail out of your drift.
Chest wader: Literally out to his chest. One more step and he is a Bob. No offense to guys really named Bob. Often or eventually a low baller.
The socialite: Not a person for a mile in either direction but he has to fish within feet of you.
Swisher: Sets the hook on every bump. Swish, swish, swish.
Officer friendly: The guy who sits in the parking lot and wants to know "exactly" where you caught that fish.
Spinner: First time rowing.
Tester: The sled that keeps coming by every half hour. He must be out testing his motor.
Low life: Tosser of beer cans, plastic bags and Styrofoam containers.
Dreamer: Me when I am not fishing.
