Top notch respect in the beginning, she escalated by being a douche and you put her in her place. This is an all to common experience anymore for fisherman. Much respect to mike 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
You can call the cops on them for harassing you while fishing. There are laws in some places that specifically apply to such behaviors (hunting and fishing harassment). Sure, those laws are intended to stop activists from getting people to hunt or fish but how do we know she isn't one of them who has a gripe about him taking fish? An investigation can be made and she can be charged with disorderly conduct for her behavior if it doesn't meet the definitions of those laws.
My father went through something similar. The home was located on a cove. The homeowner tried to claim he owned from the 2 points inward. My father told him, where the water begins your property ends.
This is a symptom of a much bigger problem. Have you noticed the amount of people who just cant help, but to jump into someone else's buisness has gotten higher these days? A lot of people seem to not be happy unless they are somehow in control over another person's life. Dont do this, dont own this, dont swim here, dont fish here, dont walk your dog here, etc. Bottom line is people just need to go back to minding their own buisness. Goes for politics too. Everyone needs to mind their own buisness. I guarantee you it would get better around here

Sorry but beaches can be private. And sometimes with a beach is closed. It's because of wildlife laying eggs on the beach. Just relax, life will get better for you.
You don't even have to be in a boat he could be 2' in the water fishing outwards and tell her to fuck off legally. She don't own the water. 1" or 1 mile of it.
We have a man-made lake in our subdivision and every year hundreds of ducks come looking for warmer lands. One of the neighbors feed them and some others pitch in to buy their food. One of these ladies was trying to get the cops to make him to stop feeding them and to remove the ducks, because they were invading our property. They just laugh and left; she called Wild Life (whatever) agency and she was told that they were a protected specie. This past spring, about 20-25 ducks decided to move permanently and they are now locals. We never heard from her again .
I give this guy props. Even though he’s 110% in the right, he tried to work with her. After she went over the line too many times, he stood his ground.
She asked him to leave and he agrees a then continues throwing his line out right there. How is he in the right? Id of sank his boat or started dropping rocks all over the water scaring the fish away
@@JesserDaddy you also need to be careful, not to try to sink anyones boat, that would be a crime and many people who fish also hunt and have hunting equipment.
@@mikeiaconellifishing "Call Biden, probably love him." That's pretty sad, you lost me as a fan with this bullshit take on politics. If you had just argued your position as a fisherman?

I don't even give a shit about Biden, it's just that you had to make it political that turned me off, completely.
I love when people that own waterfront property think they own the water too. I like how you were nice at first before saying fuck it and telling her off😂
I had one woman tell me to leave a public parking space in front of her holiday house in Melbourne Australia.... apparently she doesn't pay huge rates to stare at my 4by4.... I said best take that up with the council, I was about to leave but stayed all day
really did try to stay calm! But then she told me to go #$%& myself so I fished it until I caught a catfish! No bass under that dock they probably voted for him too!

Maybe you're the type to leave and follow your original words. 🤔
Usually, after the first sentence following the Karen’s decision to speak, Saying “don’t fucking bother me” without looking at them, and then acting like they aren’t there, has so far had a 100% success rate in making karen storm off immediately

Ike you’re the man! The one thing I respect about you is that you keep it real and I just love the way you dealt with that issue. This does seem to be a growing trend with people coming down and harassing fisherman around their pier.
@@brendonrookes1151 There is no trespassing in public water. Been there. Done that. You people, I swear. Where's you dock .? I'll make sure to camp out there. Thanks.
This is great. As a lake property owner, i had the opposite experience. I was on my raft with kids and a boat started fishing under the raft. I simply and politely asked for space and they freaked out. Even reported me for fisherman’s harassment. They treated me like I was this Karen claiming to own the lake. I love your kind and calm. A good reminder to all anglers that common courtesy goes both ways. Yes- it’s legal to fish there. Yes. It’s legal even though we were swimming. But it’s also within my purview to ask for courtesy. People are bizarre.
What the? It's really OK to cast your line like that at someone's raft while they're swimming? I mean a hook can't do a ton of damage without hitting a really soft spot(maybe an eye?), but still seems weird to me that someone would do it.
@@josephwhittaker442 - I agreed. It was very weird. They actually came back a half hour later still raging I asked them to leave. It was bizarre to say the least.

@@magicfish100 - From Wikipedia: Karen is a pejorative term for a white woman perceived as entitled or demanding beyond the scope of what is normal.[1] The term is often portrayed in memes depicting white women who use their white privilege to demand their own way.[1][2] Depictions include demanding to "speak to the manager", being racist, or wearing a particular bob cut hairstyle.[3]
So it's a derogatory term based on race? That's horrific. So what should we call an annoying black woman, Taneesha? Or would that be considered racist? Maybe we should stop calling people names based on their race. Could I say "Bye Behinder" to an East Indian? Or "Bye Muhammed " to someone from the middle east? No. It would be considered a racial slur- and so should Ike's horrific, racist, comment.

Way to go dude very well done and stayed calm! My hats off to you for standing your ground and you were cool about it!
Mike! I remember you taking the time to talk to me about spinnerbait and buzzbait trailers when I was like 15 years old. It meant the world to me. It was at the BJCC in Birmingham. Keep doing you Ike!
I had an encounter with a Karen who thought she had exclusive rights to an elevator I've been using for 24 years. Some people are so over the top and so full of themselves, it's truly pathetic.
I've been at my job almost 16 years . Iv sat outside in the same spot against the wall . Ne girl in management about 5 years ago told me I couldn't set out there anymore .she didnt like it ...so after she brought my human resources manager out .I told them I've been sitting there since she was in middle school leave me alone... 5 years later I'm typing this leaning against my old spot in the sunshine 👍
Damn Mike has mellowed in his old age, back when I was following BASS and watching Mike I could not even imagine how he would have reacted back then. Give them hell Mike.
Dude! You are now my absolute favorite professional bass pro! Hilarious! Good for you for posting it! Told her flat out you're not leaving now. Told her to call the police. Funniest that you told her to call Biden. So awesome that you called her Karen. You're a total hero!! LMMFAO! 😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂
I used to own a lake cottage and I gotta say, it feels like an invasion when people are fishing right in front of your house. It’s kind of like someone being in your backyard (of a non-lake home). I never said anything because I know it’s their right, and I’m a fisherman too…. I’m just sayin…. Not many people do it and they usually only stick around a few minutes.
I love having this problem. Next time offer beer and ask how the weather is, see if they have a good fish fry recipe, and ask if they know any good spots around the lake. With the right tone and offer, they'll damn near jump at the chance to feed you what they catch. We can make friends while keeping vigilance.
I don’t know where this takes place but I live on a lake in Michigan and we have what they call riparian rights. So in this situation, we would own that part of the water.
I just keep my headphones on and rock out. When these happen, I just pretend to not see them, or just rock out give them the thumbs up like I’m just having the time of my life and never slow my roll. 😂
We had a lady like this on my farm growing up. We owned all the water rights through a large area, including her area. She would cause such an issue because locals would float rafts and inner tubes through our land and hers. What she had a hard time realizing is the public owns the water. My parents flexed her with our water rights and cutting off her farm if she continues harassing the kids floating the river. Last we ever heard of the Karen.
River by my house floods really bad every spring... Some people don't understand that in some areas when you buy land in a flood plain, the "land" below the water isn't yours if the water makes it navigable.
I am actually interested to know what state you live in, as far as I know no states allow the actual owning of flowing water over land. So by you threatening to cut off actual flowing surface water, I think you were mistaken. I also believe that altering flowing water like a creek, you need special permits. If you would have cut it off, I am pretty sure she had grounds to sue over it, and in court I highly doubt that "oh she was a Karen" would hold any kind of weight. So what state are you from again?
@@thenerdnetwork The lawys you are thinking of do not apply to farm land or their sources of water. Farms buy "water rights" which grants them the sole access to a source of water to water a farm. This is nothing new. "In the United States, water rights can vary in the eastern and western parts of the country. In general, the western states have historically followed the prior appropriation doctrine, which grants the right to divert water to the first person who started using the water."
"I'm not leaving now" such a great response hahaha

You don't even have to be in a boat he could be 2' in the water fishing outwards and tell her to fuck off legally. She don't own the water. 1" or 1 mile of it.
If you drove by my dock with that fishing setup, I’d ask to hop in and fish with you!!! 🤠
And my response would be, get your own boat
I'll bring the beer.

@@PanzerChicken69 Are you related to Karen?
@@4Kandlez Yes, my sister is a true Karen, you would love her.
We have a man-made lake in our subdivision and every year hundreds of ducks come looking for warmer lands. One of the neighbors feed them and some others pitch in to buy their food. One of these ladies was trying to get the cops to make him to stop feeding them and to remove the ducks, because they were invading our property. They just laugh and left; she called Wild Life (whatever) agency and she was told that they were a protected specie. This past spring, about 20-25 ducks decided to move permanently and they are now locals. We never heard from her again .
I give this guy props. Even though he’s 110% in the right, he tried to work with her. After she went over the line too many times, he stood his ground.
She asked him to leave and he agrees a then continues throwing his line out right there. How is he in the right? Id of sank his boat or started dropping rocks all over the water scaring the fish away
@@JesserDaddy he moved away from her dock, thats how he worked with her. Did you expect him to stop fishing?
@@charles-y2z6c seriously he would have a few holes in his head if I where the fishermen
@@JesserDaddy you also need to be careful, not to try to sink anyones boat, that would be a crime and many people who fish also hunt and have hunting equipment.
@@chases3314 bad idea to shoot at anyone over a fishing dispute. You mean the fisherman should shoot at Karen??
Haha, did he do a ‘microphone drop’ with “Goodbye Karen?” Legend!
Respect to this guy for having a rod and reel combo for each type of lure he is using that day💪
That’s what they all do lol
He's Mike Iaconelli...
I thought the same thing. I believe he’s a pro fisherman. 👏🏻🙌🏼

Love how you kept calm the whole time even while you were telling her to call the cops! My man!
took a lot to stay calm!
@@mikeiaconellifishing "Call Biden, probably love him." That's pretty sad, you lost me as a fan with this bullshit take on politics. If you had just argued your position as a fisherman? I would still be behind you... but you HAD to go and make it political and HAD to inject Biden into the argument. Now, everything you try to argue will be forever stale and insubstantial. I don't even give a shit about Biden, it's just that you had to make it political that turned me off, completely.

I love when people that own waterfront property think they own the water too. I like how you were nice at first before saying fuck it and telling her off😂
Sometimes they do, it depends on the deed, etc.
I had one woman tell me to leave a public parking space in front of her holiday house in Melbourne Australia.... apparently she doesn't pay huge rates to stare at my 4by4.... I said best take that up with the council, I was about to leave but stayed all day

That is the best thing I've seen all year. I love how you finally snap at the end. After trying to be nice they will never learn.
really did try to stay calm! But then she told me to go #$%& myself so I fished it until I caught a catfish! No bass under that dock they probably voted for him too!
He didnt snap at all. He,s a guy that doesn't take shit from people. He just stood up for himself. As we all should. RESPECT !

Thank u Mike showing people its not just regular anglers that get messed with but also pro anglers as well
I’m glad you didn’t leave! When you said you were leaving I was like wtf, but then you held your ground. Bravo
being spiteful and a liar just fuels the fire - it doesn't help lol
Did she have a Russian accent?!? Thought she was trying to claim the lake as hers!!!
@@TheCattyKid he was on his way out until she came after him. He's allowed to change his mind based on how things were going. I don't see anything wrong with his actions.

Maybe you're the type to leave and follow your original words. 🤔

@@joeunderwood3693 if you don't want to see people legally fishing around your dock, you shouldn't have bought lakefront property lol.
Loved the last bit 🤣😂🤣 OK bye Karen 👋
Usually, after the first sentence following the Karen’s decision to speak, Saying “don’t fucking bother me” without looking at them, and then acting like they aren’t there, has so far had a 100% success rate in making karen storm off immediately
Go away or get lost sternly seems to do the trick as well 😅
Wow? What weak Karen's do you bump into? Telling them to fudge off usually sends them on a tirade on why they WON'T fudge off
@@frameofmind229 the purpose here is to break karen nerves, making her furious. Then she call cops and get humiliated herself because police don't give a fuck of that shits. If cops come, it's better, they will be able to certify that they don't give a fuck.. :p
I look them dead in the eyes and say "STOP TALKING TO ME" and then carry on. It works pretty well.
"I'm really good" ... Little does she know. Absolutely love this like from a pro!
Ike you’re the man! The one thing I respect about you is that you keep it real and I just love the way you dealt with that issue. This does seem to be a growing trend with people coming down and harassing fisherman around their pier.
The sence of entitlement that people have that live on water is hilarious. He's alot more pleasant than I would have been.
yeah theres a larger self entitlement when ppl think they have the right to tresspass
@@brendonrookes1151
There is no trespassing in public water.
Been there. Done that. You people, I swear. Where's you dock .? I'll make sure to camp out there. Thanks.
The bass live under the docks was the best line of the video lol. 😂
Can't the fish live somewhere else?
I love how he called her Karen at the end... she was such a Karen.
I love how she trespassed to tell you not to fish near someone else's boat. Haha.
Listening 👂 on, she did say "well we do own both of these properties."

Way to go Mike! You handled that perfectly! Some people are just stupid
"Bye Karen..."
LOL! That's a perfect response.
This is great. As a lake property owner, i had the opposite experience. I was on my raft with kids and a boat started fishing under the raft. I simply and politely asked for space and they freaked out. Even reported me for fisherman’s harassment. They treated me like I was this Karen claiming to own the lake. I love your kind and calm. A good reminder to all anglers that common courtesy goes both ways.
Yes- it’s legal to fish there. Yes. It’s legal even though we were swimming. But it’s also within my purview to ask for courtesy.
People are bizarre.
Should have just jumped in the water with your kids and slapped it with your hands... no fish, no fishermen.
Never had a bad experience on the lakes in my area. I hope I get to fish a chocolate river someday. 😆
What the? It's really OK to cast your line like that at someone's raft while they're swimming? I mean a hook can't do a ton of damage without hitting a really soft spot(maybe an eye?), but still seems weird to me that someone would do it.
@@josephwhittaker442 - I agreed. It was very weird. They actually came back a half hour later still raging I asked them to leave. It was bizarre to say the least.
@@willywonka2164 I mean if I get hit by his line it's assault isn't it?
Even Ike gets slammed by a Karen, unreal. Good for Ike on standing his ground. Awesome video.
What's a Karen?
I love you Ike ! You handled it like a champ. Reminds me of the guy while you were graphing that grass line.
The woman on the other side of my mother's pond did this to my dad one day. She said to him, "HOW WOULD YOU LIKE IT IF I CAME AND JUMPED IN THE POOL IN YOUR BACK YARD?" My daddy responded with, "THAT WOULD BE JUST FINE IF YOU ENTERED ON YOUR SIDE!"
Gotta love these goobers.
Love it man. Way to stand your ground 👏
these bloody women are so used to telling their children what to do they think they can do it to anyone they want now
Must be tough for people that were really named Karen 😂
What went through the minds of people naming their kids Karen?
Lol right! Funny thing is all the women I know personally who are named Karen are nice people.
I heard a father call out for his daughter ‘Karen’ at college dorm drop off. I instantly felt for this girl.
I had to deal with one once, worked in public sector actually named Karen and was a dead set Karen all the way
@@shannona6989 Excellent 😂
I’d go back and fish there every day. 😂

Yeah.....the Biden comment was lame, but he did own her petty ass, lol.
Old, Caucasion flying an American flag off their dock... Does not want to share the water.... What do you think
"Call Biden, you probably love him." Excellent, hahah!!!
Biden saved us from dangerous Covid policies and jumpstarted the economy. Don't mock the hand that saved us!
92.3% of Karens are Trump supporters, just saying.... They just have that sense of self entitlement and superiority that makes them perfect QOP.
You were so nice but she wouldn't give up so you were totally right to keep fishing. You rock Mike!!
Stumbling on to this video made my night! Haha, thank you sir! The world would be a much better place with more people like you in it!
You did well.
"Bye, Karen." 🤣
Bless her heart. She didn't know who she was about to play a game of hothead with!
The "bye Karen" at the end made me laugh.😆😆😆
What is a Karen?
@@magicfish100 - From Wikipedia:
Karen is a pejorative term for a white woman perceived as entitled or demanding beyond the scope of what is normal.[1] The term is often portrayed in memes depicting white women who use their white privilege to demand their own way.[1][2] Depictions include demanding to "speak to the manager", being racist, or wearing a particular bob cut hairstyle.[3]
So it's a derogatory term based on race? That's horrific. So what should we call an annoying black woman, Taneesha? Or would that be considered racist? Maybe we should stop calling people names based on their race.
Could I say "Bye Behinder" to an East Indian? Or "Bye Muhammed " to someone from the middle east? No. It would be considered a racial slur- and so should Ike's horrific, racist, comment.
@@magicfish100 - haha! You asked a question and you got an answer straight from Wikipedia. If you’re triggered by it then go watch another channel Karen. 😂
Oh I see. Who uploaded the Wikipedia definition?
Perhaps they also contributed an Urban Dictionary entry.
Racism is wrong. Period.
Never allow people to feel like they are above you! It’s just fuel for her stupidity!

I’m not one to start trouble either, you were very polite and I’m glad you stayed and fished after she came at you again! Way to go 👍🏻

Cool experience!
Now you are one of my favorite people mike. LoL!!!! "Now I'm staying!"
I had an encounter with a Karen who thought she had exclusive rights to an elevator I've been using for 24 years. Some people are so over the top and so full of themselves, it's truly pathetic.
I've been at my job almost 16 years . Iv sat outside in the same spot against the wall .
Ne girl in management about 5 years ago told me I couldn't set out there anymore .she didnt like it ...so after she brought my human resources manager out .I told them I've been sitting there since she was in middle school leave me alone...
5 years later I'm typing this leaning against my old spot in the sunshine 👍
Did she get " a rise" out of you?? Walka walka!!!
Damn Mike has mellowed in his old age, back when I was following BASS and watching Mike I could not even imagine how he would have reacted back then. Give them hell Mike.
Bro mike way to go, we need more fisherman like us willing to stand up to people like this .
Dude! You are now my absolute favorite professional bass pro! Hilarious! Good for you for posting it! Told her flat out you're not leaving now. Told her to call the police. Funniest that you told her to call Biden. So awesome that you called her Karen. You're a total hero!! LMMFAO! 😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂
I used to own a lake cottage and I gotta say, it feels like an invasion when people are fishing right in front of your house. It’s kind of like someone being in your backyard (of a non-lake home). I never said anything because I know it’s their right, and I’m a fisherman too…. I’m just sayin…. Not many people do it and they usually only stick around a few minutes.
I love having this problem. Next time offer beer and ask how the weather is, see if they have a good fish fry recipe, and ask if they know any good spots around the lake. With the right tone and offer, they'll damn near jump at the chance to feed you what they catch.
We can make friends while keeping vigilance.
I don’t know where this takes place but I live on a lake in Michigan and we have what they call riparian rights. So in this situation, we would own that part of the water.
Whaaa whaaaa 😭
@@katimcgee9408 You don't own the water, you own the land underneath the water, the same way you don't own the sky above your property
@@katimcgee9408 You are allowed access and to use the water. It doesn't mean other people can't pass through it or fish there.
Without a Karen to spice things up, fishing is the most boring activity on earth.
Thank you Karen. 👍

I needed a laugh today with a hurricane breathing down our necks. Thanks mike! Love it!
Glad you enjoyed it! Stay Safe!!
I just keep my headphones on and rock out. When these happen, I just pretend to not see them, or just rock out give them the thumbs up like I’m just having the time of my life and never slow my roll. 😂
We had a lady like this on my farm growing up. We owned all the water rights through a large area, including her area. She would cause such an issue because locals would float rafts and inner tubes through our land and hers. What she had a hard time realizing is the public owns the water. My parents flexed her with our water rights and cutting off her farm if she continues harassing the kids floating the river. Last we ever heard of the Karen.
River by my house floods really bad every spring... Some people don't understand that in some areas when you buy land in a flood plain, the "land" below the water isn't yours if the water makes it navigable.
I am actually interested to know what state you live in, as far as I know no states allow the actual owning of flowing water over land. So by you threatening to cut off actual flowing surface water, I think you were mistaken. I also believe that altering flowing water like a creek, you need special permits. If you would have cut it off, I am pretty sure she had grounds to sue over it, and in court I highly doubt that "oh she was a Karen" would hold any kind of weight. So what state are you from again?
@@thenerdnetwork five times you stated you didn't know for sure. Why imply you know for a fact and at the same time say you don't?
@@thenerdnetwork you can own water rights lol. Are you an idio
@@thenerdnetwork The lawys you are thinking of do not apply to farm land or their sources of water. Farms buy "water rights" which grants them the sole access to a source of water to water a farm. This is nothing new.
"In the United States, water rights can vary in the eastern and western parts of the country. In general, the western states have historically followed the prior appropriation doctrine, which grants the right to divert water to the first person who started using the water."
This is when you get the boys and just fish the area all day for 2 days
Best, sweetest vengeance on such Karens is to completely ignore them.
“You don’t own the water, it’s gods water.”
