Even the motorized AI is hard to troll at 8mph. Plus the weather is not looking too good. It is probably a lot easier to take the kayak down south now and try.

I’m pretty sure we can all share a body of water. Just because someone’s been fishing a spot for decades doesn’t give them the right to reserve that spot for themselves. I’ve been to Bodega And HMB during a hot salmon bite with Tons of boatS and kayakers in the mix and everyone was civil. Boaters were stoked when kayakers caught fish and vice versa. We were dodging each other carefully while trolling with no issues. It all comes down to mutual respect.

You're missing the point. Sharing a spot is one thing. Blowing it open on the internet for the whole fishing word to see is very different, and that's when this new hostility began. When someone comes in with a GoPro - someone who hasn't fished here for decades and hasn't made the effort to get to know people and earn their trust - and posts the f***ing location and "halibut frenzy" in the video's title, that is a problem and it is going to tick off the locals who have kept it quiet for decades.

TLA's videos don't get enough views to make him rich or famous, but they get enough to burn spots and cause friction with the locals. And the unfortunate irony is that it probably won't be his tires that will get slashed. He'll be off blowing up some other spot that day.
