You are fishing a medium to large western river populated with so many bank anglers seemingly every strech of holding water is being fished. You float past one ggod run after another leaving your fellow anglers alone to fish the water they were in first, but the river miles are dwindling fast. Do you blow your day of fishing off, or, do you go to the opposite side of the river and fish the same holding water someone else is fishing, and to the maximum extent possible, fish downstream behind them after they have fished it?

I'm currious to know what the consensus of opinion on this subject is because I've been verbally asaulted more than once for doing the latter on a couple of BC's large and ever more popular rivers.
