as i had guys set up straight in front of me right where i was sitting bascily casting and the sinker and hooks a reasonable chance they hit me in the head while they were doing it tangling up my line on the cast

It was clear looking back on it they just wanted to take over that spot and forced me to move. (slight cove to right that was quite shallow so had to move 80 yards)
No way i wasnt going to get my bait not tangled with there lines....so it was either have some words or leave.
So i moved and kept the peace and said nothing but i was there first and its just rude. Doesnt matter who they were but shouldnt be doing that..

Then they go about keeping every undersize fish...mate and i couldnt be bother getting into any arguements as we just here to have a fish so didnt go over and say they too small and need to go back

But my mate after about the 7th fish rang Maf or whoever and they said they sent someone down but didnt see that happen.
We were there about a hour after the phone call before we left.
Point is people should have some respect for others, and considering everything i really didnt say anything apart from the first 2 and it was clear we all end up in a big tangle mess with our lines
if they fished where they were going to.
Put it this way, if i had 2 rods my second one wouldnt be as close to my first one what they were doing.
So it became clear now that they for what ever reason they were forcing me to move as for whatever reason they thougfht that was the spot.
It was quite ridulous, just a pity about the under size fish.....they know the rules but i suppose its early AM in the morning and think whose going to dob them in.

I be ringing Maf myself next time if i see them doing this again.

Take your dog with you.
Was it Tahunanui beach?
Nelson must have changed since the early nineties, was pretty much a monoculture back then.
