I asked him what he was doing trespassing and he said he was getting "his" lure. I told him that lure was now mine and get the hell off my property. He then threw his cigarette onto my beach and went back to his boat and went away. When I encounter someone like this, I have no idea what they are up to, good or bad!

Next time this happens, a 12 gauge will accompany me. Why cast a lure like that in the first place?

I got many responses to that post about how considerate he was to retrieve the lure so no one would accidentally hook themselves. The lure was caught about 10' high. No danger in accidentally getting hooked. And the lure is still there today.
You're making this up, right? Can't imagine this happening, and never has happened in the occasional times I've tied up to a stranger's dock, usually for storm shelter. Mostly, it's "Nice to meet you, how can I help, would you like a beer, have a seat".
