    Angry Old Retired Guy Blocking The Ramp At Conroe Today...

    Just sat there on the ramp and wiped his boat down FOREVER.

    I walked over and nicely suggested he move but he didn't take the hint...

    He started asking me about the lake and asking me questions like "what's working on those big girls"?!?!

    I stood there in shock with a blank look on my face but he didn't get it?!?! He just kept talking and cleaning!!!!!

    It's all good though...I gave him coordinates to a "great spot" in the middle of the lake.

    Wonder how long he'll fish there before he figures it out??

    Actually, it was me. I like to screw with the young boys with fancy tin boats.
    Think what would happen in this country if the many stopped fearing the few.

    Well, at least you didn't tell him to pull the transom plug and back 'er in, like you did to that other poor SOB, who may be "sleeping with the fishes" for all we know.

    Don't do that in the Atchafalaya Basin landings in LA. Those Coon Asses will come up on him while he's fishing, take his tackle, cut his fuel line, and leave him for the gators.

    Nope...I've changed my ways...I really did promise a few good guys on here that I wouldn't post "reckless" comments no more. I don't need y'all pissed at me but more importantly I don't need it on my conscience. Buddy sent me this meme yesterday and it made me think of this all over again. I wonder how many people will do this and how much money this might cost someone?? It's kinda funny but then you gotta figure there is probably someone out there who might take it serious...

    I've had this happen. As much as I'd like to tell them to go F themselves, I'd like to return to my truck in the same condition as I left it.

    I prep at the top parking lot before launching and dry/pack-up at the top as well. Launching and loading take us less than 2 minutes.....as it should be.

    Some people, and it seems to be more everyday, are oblivious to those around them. I'm amazed how thoughtless some people are.

    LOL...This thread was supposed to be a spinoff of the thread about meeting a tin boater on Conroe...

    Here's a link... (Tin boater I met on Conroe this noon.....Say hello!)

    But it turned out to be a total belly flop.

    Still generated a few good posts though.

    I'm home now...back in sunny S. Florida.
