Do you carry a gun fishing?

[river scum]

sounds like a case for the warden to get strait. better take extra mags and a snorkle next time. lol

The depressing thing is that this guy was trying to run me off of someone else's side of the river. I now am forced to give up a spot I have fished for years, because some redneck isn't concerned about the consequences of stupidity.

Nobody land owner owns the river !!!! now if you anchored up your on there land

Most States have A "normal high water mark" they go by as far as public and private waters. If The property is owned by the same person on both sides of the river , kind of hard to tie up to the bank.

When i was young ,i was taught, to get a farmers permission to fish the river in Illinois were i grew up.out here in Colorado lot of state land to hunt and fish, if the land is leased then it falls back to the permission thing again.

I would have left the area most quick then called 911 and reported a madman running up and down the bank with a gun threating folks and shooting. When the cops show up file a report for terrorists threats made by the guy. Cell phone video in court would have won your case.

I hope you have called the police about this by now. If not, I would immediately. You'll probably never go back there to fish, but what about the next guy. Is he a dead duck because he and the police are unaware that some vigilante with a gun is using deadly force to protect property rights?? I wouldn't want that on my conscience.


I catfish and fly fish a lot in the middle of nowhere, with no cell service and virtually no technology of any kind.


I carry a .357 magnum with me. And I'm far more concerned about a 180lb hilljack than I am the 300lb black bear I might encounter. . . .

I agree you need to let the local police or game warden know.
