Hello all, I have been fly fishing for about three years now and absolutley love it. However i have a couple etiquette questions i hope some of you could help me with. The first one i have is how much distance should you give between yourself and somebody else on the river? Also, should you fish downstream from him or walk around him and fish upstream? I understand people usually work there way upstream, but had a friend who recently had a confrontation with somebody for fishing downstream from them. Lastly, if I am fishing off of the bank of the river and a float boat comes up on me and wants to fish the same bank, do i not have the right to be there and shouldn't he go somewhere else? I had this situation last year.... Thanks for your input!
