I wouldn't take a gun along while fishing, because fishing isn't complete without beer, and beer and guns don't go together, unless you've lined up your empties on a fence and are plinking them a few hours later.
Regardless of my feelings, tha angler approached the boat, a heated argument ensued, and if the occupants of the boat felt threatened enough to show that they were armed in an attempt to deter the angry guy from doing anything more than arguing, then they had every right to do so and may have prevented further violence and confrontation by showing how unwise it would be to escalate the situation. Remember what they say, "an armed society is a polite society."
