Unhappy

I was lead and partner was just about to cross midcourt still counting for back court. Point ugly crossover to left hand double dribble. Partner behind player still couldn't see it. I called it. Much more experienced official said I went fishing. I took that to mean ignore it if is out of your primary. Just kind of bugged me that some officials take offense if you call in their area. Everyone says this is very political and you'd hate to piss off the wrong official by doing this. So to be polically correct do you ignore calls outside your primary. Because I probably wouldn't do it again even if everyone in the gym saw it.
"Hey it wasn't my call coach" This really bugged Me.
Let me say the comment came from official who was watching the game. My partner was fine with the call.
