. These are good people who simply think hog lines are for good old boys who have fished with and lied to each other for years. Jumping in with strangers can feel as rude as leaning over the fence and ogling someone else’s backyard barbeque in progress. So, they hang back and go it alone.

Yup yup.... i fall into this catagory.. maybe next time i see a line, I will stopby and anchor in line...

. I haven't (and will not) fish OC where if you haven't been in the hogline for 20 years, you a newbie and therefore suck at anchoring. The only frustrations I've had are from OC type fisherman that have tried to park 3 feet from my boat. That and the federal holiday warriors that drop an anchor 50 feet behind my boat when I have 75 feet of line out for the set.

Why is that... Me and buddy fish OC area often mouth of clack and it alwasy seems there are few hog lines. Yes river is narrow. but people pull up and park like a pin ball table bumper cushion... try driving thru that mess and not **** anyone off... arrrrr
