How Would You Handle the Situation?

If you do eventually get his boat numbers etc. I would still contact the DNR and report him.  If he was removing brush piles he could be destroying habitat and that is another steep fine.  

Nail his @#%.  but do it legally.  Better to have the association discipline him AND the DNR.  

good Luck.

These days, where having every day be peaceful and pleasant is what matters most............

I would have moved and found bass somewhere else.

I had to re-read this a couple of times and say to myself "Is that really you?...Is that really true??

The answer is yes and yes.

go figure.

I haven't heard any word on the situation since I turned it in, but I also haven't seen the fella' back. I did however notice that what pulled out was replaced to somewhat where it used to be.

what I woulda done probably isn't the right thing, but I probably woulda put my spook upside his head,then when he was trying to dig the trebles out i woulda yelled SNAG! and laughed uncontrollably...I don't get intimidated by whether or not someone mightcome back at me, I'm big enough to handle it, and The likelihood of a weapon being involved is minimal.

all that said, you went about it all the right way, if you do see him again, immediately call your game warden or local police. problem solved

Harassing an angler is illegal in most all states. Call the game and fish.

I think I would have whipped out the movie camera.

Hehe, I know hindsights 20/20 but I'm pretty sure, I'd have just heckled him and egged him on. It's funny to watch idiots get mad. I doubt I'd have done anything physical but it sure would be funny to watch ;D
