Do you have the right to complain about a boat passing to close to your line
when you are fishing at the entrance of a boat harbor?  I mean, I wouldn't
scuba dive in a boat harbor why do you feel you have the right to fish
there?

Kind of difficult for another to see the line, I'd think.

Why would you even want to fish there?  Fish full of chemicals off the
boats, human waste, and all other kinds of nasty stuff.  I'd rather eat
blinky, of simpsons fame.  At least he's only radioactive. . .

Oh but, ... they take the fish home alive and allow them to live in a tank
of clean water for a couple of days first, before they kill them.  That way
all the contaminants will leave the fish before they are eaten.

Don't laugh, I'm not kidding.  I've really heard people say that.

I wish you were kidding - mercury, lead, and all sorts of organics
linger for years, not days.  But then, to each there own...

bringing a 100' ship up the narrow channel. the fisherman drifiting and
fishing in the narrow channel keeps fishing and looking until he has to
look at about 45 degrees up at the approaching vessel, then he moves
quickly to get out of the way.
