Bankside Rage !
As the title suggests and similar to road rage, I had the miss fortune to witness an incident yesterday between two anglers who were fishing close to my peg, not sure what started it all off, maybe it was the fact they both were trying to fish the same small piece of water !
Anyway it started off as verbal which led to extremely nasty verbal, gesturing and serious threats of violence and all with raised voices and each angler virtually nose to nose, if it wasn't for myself and another angler stepping in anything could have happened !
This is the first time I have ever seen this and I hope it was the last, you go fishing to be relaxed and get away from all the rubbish of normal day to day life, to be honest it really spoilt my day as my adrenelin was pumping and after I could just not relax again so I soon packed up and went home.
Has anybody else ever had anything like this happen with them or their friends or even witnessed it at first hand and if you did how did you handle it ?
Regards
