On a serious side, you are correct. Last year in Cocodrie, me and the wife and two boys were on some birds. Young boys and wife cathing and i was unhooking and getting a sip of beer when i could.....proud fun moment till some jack leg and his young son came within 20 yards of the boat and never stopped. I was P.O.'ed!!!!!! Needless to say, the fished stopped and we headed off to Last Island.....while in route i swing wide of the sulfer mine and notice plenty of boats. I find the side with the biggest opening and ease up tofish.....Guess who comes blazing up to fish about 30 yards from me!!!!!!!!!!!! YUP Jack leg himself with his son.
I proceed to kick the trolling motor on high to get close enough so he can hear me.....tell him he needs to slow down and be a bit more courteous on the water.....told him he dam near ran over me and now comes rolling up on me......He told me to mind my own business...thats when i had enough! Told him he does it again and i will be his business....besides..."What are you teaching your son?????' I think that got his attention and he then apologized!
They dont teach this in boating courses but they need to!
