I've hunted and fished for several decades. I've seen rude behavior in both sports for as long as I've participated in them. (The duck "hunter" who set up 20 yards down wind of my 200+ decoy spread, or the "fisherman" who cast a jig in my boat and hooked my buddy trying to get close to the spot we were pulling fish from, for example). I think they boil down to 2 types: (1) those that don't know any better, and (2) those that are just plain rude, obnoxious and don't care.
