Jeeves, get the cannon and blow the common folk away from the waterfront, so I enjoy the view. Who is entitled?

Yeah, who has the chip on their shoulder? I don't know what thread you were reading, but all I read here was waterfront owners saying fish all you want, just keep your lure off my boat and trampoline.

Our 2 Jack Russell Terriers welcome all the fishermen at the end of our dock by barking until they and probably all fish leave our dock and property line.

What problem???

I find that a good old' fashioned cannon ball off the end of the dock works near 100% of the time in persuading even the most aggressive trollers to bypass our dock.

Well if the Shot Heard from the cannon doesn't work get out the mechanical lake shark. That will do it!

We start our boat engine as if to warm it up.
A few loud revs helps.

I think "Pricestavern" is talking about the Human Cannon Ball. The one where you jump off the dock to see how big of a splash you can make.

I like that idea!
