Rude!! I have decided that lots of fishermen are anti-social (cue backlash!) - when Monty sat in a tent belonging to one of them and looked thoroughly pleased with himself he was met with a great deal of grumpiness!
@judithg Ah I can just imagine & Monty has only been used to being welcomed so he wouldn't understand the rejection! I'm sure all fishermen aren't like that!!
You should have purposely tripped over his pole, fell on to him so he would fall into the water! Then you could have grabbed his fish and ran! The canal looks quite pretty here and lovely to walk along!
@jennywren They don't lay their poles down because many have had them ridden over by cyclist, and they're not cheap to replace. No excuse for rudeness though.
Yep I've definitely met the grumpy fisherman sort ... usually when we are out on kayaks and wish to get past their lines that stretch right across the water. I'm always apologetic, but hubby takes a more direct approach!
