My dad said, "We kept 40, that's 10 a piece, that's not out of line at all sir."

Owner - "Yeah right, come in here and keeping 100 crappie that's just dumb! Doesn't take anyone 2 hours to clean 40 crappie!"

I said, "Well, I'm teaching my dad how to fillet, he's never done it so it's going to take awhile."

Owner - "There's no reason for people who aren't guests to spend that much time in here!"

I said, "Isn't this..?"

Owner - "I don't care what you have to say!"

Dad said, "Are we...?"
Owner - "I told you I don't care what you have to say! The next time you come here, don't keep 100 crappie and clean them at home!"

We were very wrong? What are we supposed to do? Start apologizing all over ourselves when he treats us like that? If we're wrong we're wrong. No reason at all to treat anyone like that. Does he think he's that important to just come up and start yelling at us? Not a way to treat people at all.

To be fair, that narrative is entirely different than how you told the story in your initial post.
