Bird watchers have recently taken over the banks previously used for decades for fishing
They don't share the space and camp out on them for hours at a time, preventing fishermen and migratory waterfowl from accessing the area

How do we get rid of this scourge
>>
Make excessive noise that scares away the birds. Shoot guns in the air. If nogunz, play gun sounds on a concert-sized portable speaker. Like a fever, you must make the area inhospitable to the boomers to force them out.
>>
>>2750225
Can't spook the birds because it happens to be a nesting pair of bald eagles
>>
>>2750228
Then your only option is to get there early and shit everywhere the boomers like to be
>>
>>2750224
Get a set of waders and stand in front of them.
>>
>>2750224
go sit on the opposite bank and carefully shine a high power laser into each of their lenses. fry them sensors.
>>
>>2750224
Based as fuck.
Fishing hasn't been about catching fish in decades--just a bunch of boomers dropping piles of money for swag so they can talk about who's is bigger while never ever learning shit about the rivers or waters they fish in.
>>
>>2750228
The bird watchers will lose interest soon.
>>
>>2750224
walk into the middle of the group, take your pants off, squat down, and take a massive shit right in the middle of them
>>
>>2750224
just start casting from behind them
>>
>>2750303
Why do that when you can just import indians into your country to do it for you

Birding is based as fuck. I never see it get talked about here but its a cool hobby. It doesn't require tons of dollars in meme gear, literally just binoculars, a bird guide, and a notebook to log your sightings. I would highly recommend it to anons. Trying to track down rare birds for your life list (the list birdwatchers keep of all the species they've identified.) is really quite fun. I picked it up to compliment my hiking hobby. You learn a ton too, people get impressed when you can just casually identify birds based off their calls.
>>
>>2750224
>oh woe is me other people also enjoy being outdoors
Boo hoo, smelly autist. You know who also take up your fishing spots regularly? Other fisherman.

Just go up to them and ask them about it, what they're planning to see etc. Usually a rare species has been spotted nearby if they come out en masse.

It's not even like they conceal themselves and you have to wait for hours for them to finally appear, they're out and about all day long

You'll either see them hanging out in the tree or flying around the lake in a circle
>>
>>2750224
>fishermen
this is the problem. If you're not fishing for food, you are cancer. Anyone who fishes and throws the fish back should be forced from that dock permanently.
>>
>>2750671
why
>>
>>2750224
Good. I'm sick of you fish fags clogging up the docks when I'm trying to dock my shit. Now you get a little taste
>>

Because you're fucking with and hurting animals for no other reason than your amusement. It's degenerate.

I do it passively all the time, just pay attention to birds while doing other stuff. But I never go out intending to only look at birds. I'd at least call it a hike and see what I can see. Not just birds but cool plants too.
>>
>>2750858
I love to grab the binoculars if I see an unusual bird but I will never understand how this shit became hobbyfied. I don't understand going somewhere with the specific purpose of doing something that is usually enjoyable specifically because it's accidental. Honestly I wonder if it's got some consumerist wankery attached to it like flaunting huge expensive equipment like most photographers do. If your photos are shit like macro shots of a bee on a flower you don't give a shit about photography, those photos exist as equipment benchmarks. I really fucking hate how many hobbies are like this today.

You're the definition of a locust. Obviously anything that isn't consumerism or destruction is beyond your mental capacity.

It's a public space, anon. First come, first serve. From your OP it looks like they are more efficient with space, too. That space occupies 8 boomer birdwatchers or 1 autistic fisherman.

This doesn't mean they don't feel pain, though.

Retarded cope boomers tell their grandkids to try to justify recreationally mutulating fish. Catch and release fishermen are fags.
>>
>>2751096
This. Catch and release is on par with shooting birds with BB guns.
>>
You ever seen the way a monkey keeps a pet puppy or kitten in southeast asia or africa?

They just drag and throw it around?

That's called being fucking retarded. All of our grandpas were fucking retarded and no better than those monkeys. They haven't developed enough reason to understand it's bullshit to do.

Yes it does.

Animals and plants were created for humans. There is nothing morally wrong with fishing, hunting, and hiking. Plants don't have feelings, aren't intelligent, and can't feel pain. You owe no moral obligation to them. And as long as you humanly kill animals, its fine.

Only liberal fags like you who want to feel morally superior to others complain about that shit. You don't actually care, and you know it. This is just cope to make up for the rest of your morally bankrupt lifestyle.

Bro you're killing God's creatures for sport God never said anything about having bassmaster competitions

>>2752231
god gave man dominion over all creatures, we can do with them whatever we want

simply just push them aside & fish
what are they gonna do, attack you?

If God doesn't like bassmaster competitions then why does this beautiful monument still stand?

Plants have feelings, emotions, intelligence, and intricate social structures. Humans have trouble understanding that because they don't think like plants and try to force human thought structures upon them.

This is my point. Catch and release fishermen are fags. I fish, but I don't go unless I intend on keeping the fish.

That faggot probably gets upset about potential bycatch.

are you just gonna cry as you release the fish?

the post is to say a small fish is traffic ticket tier, inconsequential

but what if you dont catch anything?

you said you only go fishing if you intend to keep
what if you dont catch a keeper all day
do you just fish indefinitely?

I don't know if I'm too autistic or not autistic enough to enjoy the thought of birdwatching. I first heard about birdwatching when I saw the trailer for The Big Year and initially I thought it was a satire of niche outdoor activities until I looked it up and found out that birding is indeed a real thing people do.
I'd be as bored as the dude on the left there if I had to do it.

Seriously, why should I care? I walk into the woods and I never encounter these people, ever. Maybe I have genuinely disturbed a wildlife photographer, aight, sorry! Didnt mean to, but neither of us are doing any damage to nature like fishermen.

By my experience their interest in wildlife extends only as far as getting photographs of it
