Man, guys ,you have to calm down dude, nobody intentially runs a board into somebody,s boat,i run boards all the time ,big boards and in-lines,i,ve never run into anybody as of yet but sometimes people do get a little close,lol,i ve had charter boats almost touch my boards with theirs,gets the hairs up sometimes,but were all trying to do the same thing ,fish and have a good time ,the problems i thinks lies with overcrowding,jiggers and trollers dont respect each others space at all,last fall i was in a pack of trollers on thompsons,probably 30 boats trolling ,then 5-6 boats pull up and stop to jig,the trollers were scattering everywhere to avoid the jiggers that just pulled up,there were more than a few choice words screamed at each other,eventually a new trolling pattern emerged and all was fine but it falls to respect again,show some compassion and lets all use common sense out there it will make for a better day for everyone concerned,usually the jiggers are bass guys in bass boats,no problem with them doing their thing but it just show little to no respect ,its why i quite river fishing rainbows,you have 5-6 guys drifting a run and then a spinner jockey comes in and starts tossing spinners ,they just dont mix well in tight fishing conditions!!!!and ive also seen trollers try to weave through a pack of jiggers as well ,dumb at best ,there is lots of water to fish out there gentlemen and women,and lots of ways to catch fish as well,nobody,s wrong, we all have to share the same water, the guys that bug me are the ones that are on full plane and just run into your board lines especially with in-line boards,totally not paying attention to where they are travelling,lets all show some respect for fellow fishermen!!!!!
