Default RE: What are you most anal about on your boat?

I hate the trash thing for sure but don't-cha just love when they just stand there and watch, you acttheir mother picking up and putting away everything.

I like to give 'em the "Hey, I got it" and just look back at them. (BTW the "Hey, I got it" thing doesn't work either):doh

I guess my biggest pet peeve is people who move all around the boat when I'm trying to back it into the slip. Unless, the wind and tide are really ripping, I don't need someone running from front to back trying to hold off the boat. 7000 lbs of moving boat can easily injure one of these clueless busy bodies.

Default RE: What are you most anal about on your boat?

Alright here goes. Most of my anal things are not gear or trash but :

I have a small boat, 18' CC, so I don't get out off shore and when I go out it is only about 10-15 miles at the most. What burns my ass the most is I take freinds along and they are fine on the ride out. Not long after we stop on a spot, they get sea sick, but the night before when we talked about going they denied getting sea sick. Then they are asking you to pick up and take them in to the dock. Ya right, "boats in the water and isn't coming back to the dock unless I am ready"

I hate pussy wiped popple who bring theircell phones, The phone rings 4-6 times during the trip and it is the spouse wondering when they are going to home.I fish usually all day, I am not coming back to the dock just to drop you off because your wife said for you to be home at a certain time.

The other thing is after a day of fishing, you pull the boat out of the water to the fresh water washdown and all of a sudden they have somewhere they have to be, while I am left to clean the boat. Or on the way home and stopping at the pump. They just sit in the truck looking at how much money you just dumped into the boat and don't even bother helping out.

Or when they are to meet you at the ramp, they call from a gas station and ask you if you would like a candy bar, sub or drinks but never mention anything about helping out on gas or even bait.

I don't get anal about stuff on my boat much, I tell them only to bring 2 poles max and I only take out one or two people with me. I tell them not to bring a cooler, my 105QT is plenty large enough.

I have stopped asking 2 coworkersgoing fishing with mebecause of this. Am I wrong or does anyone else feel the same way?

Thanks for the venting topic, great idea guys.

Okay....



I don't let much bother me when offshore. I just tell 'em what I want done one time and expect it to be that way the rest of the day. If they are not trainable..they don't get a second trip...fairly simple process.



What REALLY pisses me off though is if I am working my ass off trying to find or stay on fish and the guests start making suggestions. I have had guys who were offshore for the first time tell me they thought they could hold the boat on the spot better than I was doing. The last time it happened I just grabbed a rod and told the individual (a..hole) to have at it.



It took him about five minutes to say how hard it was to hold on the spot with the current being so strong. I mean that REALLY burns me up when it happens. My regulars know to just shut up and fish.

The only thing that gets me is the guy you take out and come back and next thing you know is he is telling EVERYONE i dont know what i am doing cause he didnt catch any fish all day,.its called fishing not catching for a reason. Doesnt matter that i caught the biggest redfish i have every caught and more trout then i have ever caught. Owell stupid people do stupid things........
