[#0000FF]Nah. Most of those guys don't bother to issue a warning. They just run wide open at me...pretending I am not there.
Had a good one at Lindon yesterday. I slowed down on the way back into the channel to make a couple of casts. Heard a small motor and looked back over my shoulder to see a good sized sailboat headed right toward me...on the same side of the channel I was on...close to the bank. So I kicked in my electric motor and started across the narrow channel to get out of the way. Then the guy in the boat turned out to cut around me...the way I was going. So I had to make a hard turn back the other way to keep from getting run over. I was hugging the bank as he went by. He yelled at me "Hey stupid, this is not a good place for fishing". I refrained from replying that it was just fine until he decided he needed the whole channel.
