Default Re: Common Courtesy Fishing/Boating

Common sense cuts both ways. It's not fair to expect every boat that passes through high traffic areas to slow down for you because you chose to fish there. If you are in or around the channel or in a high traffic area that is not a no wake zone, your expectations should be that you are going to get rocked.

Point in case, if I'm running in the channel up on plane and there are boats fishing in the channel or it's edges I'm probably not going to slow down.

If you are fishing in a smaller boat or with kids and do not want to get rocked, then you should not be fishing in these areas.
