Just looking ......

As I came around the bend, the bankfisherman all looked at me as I slowed down. I could see their stringers and baskets in the water. Lots of poles and buckets .One of the guys hooks up as I approach, so I decide to just stop and watch what he does with this fish. Sure enough, it is a tuc and he takes his time getting it off the hook, hoping I will leave. I just sat there and watched. I could see him and his buddy looking at me and talking back and forth. I guess they thought I was a cop or something with my shaved head, so the guy looks at me with a stink look and flys the tuc twenty feet out into the lake. I just smiled and waved.Next time I will just stop and fish across from these guys and maybe video the action. Its a free world ! They know they are in the wrong, just by the looks on their faces. It was pretty cool to see him fly that fish back into the water, because it was a nice 2lb fish. Saved one !
Great! Maybe mooring 50' off their bank and start fishing and show them a video camera will deter them!
