No need to say, these bandwagoning jackals must have heard about the big fish caught at this marker yesterday and deliberately came early.
Speaking of fishing spots and markers, according to local rules, they operate on a first-come, first-served basis. If there is a dispute upon simultaneous arrival, you can raise an objection, and if it gets serious, you can declare a war and decide the winner through fishing showdowns, which determines the ownership of the spot.
But that's when there aren't many boats around. Now within a radius of less than three kilometers, with four additional boats, it's already beyond the safe distance for fishing activities.
It's a small matter if fishing lines get tangled after a catch, but if there's a scrape or collision because the boats are too close, that could pose a risk of accidents.
