I usually don't fish out of POC proper because of the extra drive from Victoria. However yesterday I thought I would try out my luck down there. I took my mom with me for a nice relaxing day fishing. It turned into a really frustrating time. I was staked out behind a spoil bank with some lines cast out. My mom was reeling in a little shark when some boats came around the corner. There was about 600 yards of deep open water they could have run through. Instead one ran between us and the spoil bank, about 25 feet from the front of my boat and never slowed down. Another one ran literally less than 10 feet from the back of my boat and he never slowed either. I really can't believe people are so stupid that they would do this. There should be some kind of licensing requirements just like flying an airplane.
EXACTLY!!! I couldn't agree more. I remember way back when it was just a little po dunk town with only a few out of towners. Now it has absolutely exploded! I wish it was the way it used to be.
Yeah I do agree. I grew up in Seadrift and frequented POC a lot and I don't remember it like this. All these fools need to go back from wherever they came from.
If they got rid of that super speedy stop 3/4 of those pink sweater wearing fools would disappear.
But really, i have been going down there since it was "the best kept secret on the texas coast", i wonder who told everyone!
100% agree. Been fishing there since the mid 80's and it's wayyyyy different. As it was different in the mid 90's. And the mid 00's. And now..... But I'll continue going.
