I do however have a whole case of exploding shotgun rounds from an airport.... hhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm:think::think::think:
Seriously I would have said "Mam looks like you have a real need to fish this hole." I'd ask her which fly she is using and maybe suggest a better fly for her to try. Then I'd say to her "Mam hope you don't mind if I sit her and smoke my pipe for a while and watch, because after your done I'll be ready to start fishing this hole again. That would just be my way of dealing with the Lady. It just goes against my code to fight with women even over a fishing hole. I've seen enough fighting to last me a life time, now I prefer to enjoy life, fishing, pipe smoking and whiskey sipping. I'm not saying others views are wrong, if your up to going at it with rude women that's OK too. It's just not for me.
She probably wouldn't even have noticed. Bahahahahahaha........I would have whipped it out, showed it to her as I blessed the water (done it before)
I would think that after several tangles between your gear she would get the point and move on. It wouldn't be fun for her having to retie a cut off line after every cast!
I like what you did. I usual swing my fly below people like that and rip it back trying to snag them.
Flybum,
The only lesson learned is that some anglers are just a--holes.
