It sucks, but if that’s the worst thing that happened to you on your fishing trip then I don’t think you had it that bad.
If you’re on public land fishing a public lake, then you have to keep in mind that everyone has the same right to fish the same spot, but not everyone has the same etiquette and morals as you, unfortunately some kids are self centered and lack discipline growing up and turn out to be the kind of people you met up with.
Personally, I would have explained to my children that what they are witnessing is the reason I teach them to respect others, loud enough my lesson could be heard from a boat, and made an example out of them.
