I was fishing the Cedar last year and expierenced the Ultimate river asshole. There is a section of the river about 100 yards or better long, with four good holes. I got to the river and found two guys fishing in my favorite hole, so I moved down to the next hole. My first cast brought a 14 inch cuttie flying a foot out of the water to nail my fly. Great, off to a good start. As I looked up river I saw another fisherman walking down river, he saw the holes were full and he turned around and went back up river. After about forty five minutes the guys in the hole above me left, cool, I'll head up river and fish the big hole.
I got to my spot made a few casts, and had a couple of knots in my tippet, I had only been there about three minutes. I put my rod in my vest loop, secured the tip aqnd started working on my leader. I looked up river to see the fisherman from earlier walking towards me.I'm working on my leader, and this guy stops about three feet up river from me. He then procededs to start falsecasting down river, about three feet in front of my face. He does this a half adozen times, and then makes a couple of shit casts across the river to the eddie the fish are in. I was speechless, I've never seen a fiisherman that (insert insult here). I didn't say anything, obviousley this guy was looking for a confrontation. He then proceded to go though the whole bullshhit again. Again I kept my mouth shut. Not getting a rise out of me, he walked down river behind me ,stopping a bout three feet below me. Now he starts whip casting up river in front of my face, and then casting across the river. He contoinues this a few times, now I'm starting to chuckle seeing how irrataited, this idiot is, about not getting a rise out of me. He goes through his bullshit a couple of more times, then walks off. Didn't even say good-by. AS much as I wanted to, and more worried about breaking my expensive rod, when I killed this guy, I managed not to say a word as he walked off up river. What would any of you have done if you had met this jerk. I fully expect to see him again on the river this year at some point.
