[cool][#0000ff]MOST of the power squadron...but not all of the idiots. I was trying to fish a spot just off the island. Seems it is on the maps as the ONLY place boats can go through on the way to wherever else they want to go. Every time I started to see fish or get bit a boat would go right over top of my spot...and usually between me and the shoreline a few yards away. [/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]First it was tinboat trollers. Then it was a boat full of wet suited water skiers on the way out to run the banks on the other side...where other anglers were fishing. Then it was a diver who anchored up, went over the side and started diving near where I was fishing. All that on a huge lake with lots of room, but they all had to come look at the wacko in the float tube with a lot of rods and a motor. And amazingly almost every one of these dimbulbs motored between me and the shoreline I was fishing. Is there a boating rule I don't know about that makes it illegal to go around a tuber fishing along a shoreline?[/#0000ff]
