problem fishing high shore

[mardenq]

anyone had any bother fishing high shore,was there yesterday up near the fence onto frasers,boats coming into the marina not a problem as no where near my line,then after fishing about 2 hours a yacht coming in seen me fishing and cut in and picked my line up,there was 2 blokes and 3 teen lads on the boat,it dragged my rod round so i picked rod up and started looking in box for knife to cut the line,the line then snapped and the lads started laughin and wavin at me,one shouted nearly pulled rod in.gave them a gob full,half my spool on f1 gone,only bought the rod last week new(ttld),if someone had been with me id have ran round over the bridge into the marina and gave him a real mouthfull.another lad i know on here says his mates had the same thing happen to him.wont be fishing there again in a hurry

if it was me i would go in the marina get the boats name and report it to whoever is in charge of the marina they might only get a warning but will make them think twice about doing it again f

ive had that problem before lads but im sure the boats have right of way on the water, i think your meant to reel in if a boat is coming.

I do reel in for boats, but you do get stupid people that think it'll be fun to come your way and ruin ya cast ! Saw it happening at cambois the other day, deliberately or not

i'll happily let a few hundred yards of my line out if they want to be stupid, real risk of jamming the prop even with fishing line i reckon, nice repair bill would be the way to hit home !

the other boats comin in were all taking the same route in and this one was to untill the bloke looked at me the changed his route and came in towards me.i have been told i should have let line out untill reel was empty then cut it(if they wanted some line round there prop let them have it),there was a family fishing nearer to the entrance(2 adults and 3 kids) ,it started to thunder so they packed up 5 mins before this idiot came in or he would have cleaned them out to
