Amen brother! Turn the other cheeck! Some people don't deserve the attention of you getting angry. Hard to have self control in these citations though.

You're right Preacher, but turning the other cheek is hard to do. GTT

Hey guys, Haven't been on here in quite a while to talk but I've been reading posts quite a bit. Hey Preacher, that guy definitely was in the wrong to do y'all that way when he had the whole lake to pass. Back in '88 when I got my first new boat, I was fishing along the bank on the Ark. River. when I heard a big bass boat fire up and here he came passing by us at about 30 yards at about 60 MPH! I was upset at first until I realized that by doing this his boat was so high out of the water that he barely caused a ripple. This guy knew what he was doing. The ones that slow down and start pushing white water wakes are the problem yet they think that they are being courteous.

They should not run that close and some unknowingly do slow down are making bigger wakes . I fished Blue Mtn lake earlier this year several times . Even made a comment how curetous the fishermen were slowing down making very little wake . Wish it were like this on other lakes I fish .

Yea, The bigger more powerful boats should be all the way up on plane or barely idling by. There's no inbetween. My boat being a lower powered aluminum rig, I feel like I need to slow down to idle as I still push a pretty good wake on plane.

Stick steers with small motors are one of the worst making wakes
.

I know it's hard to hold back your emotions and have self control it's only human to wanna lash out, I as a minister at times want to tell someone off especially after that bass boy pulled his stunt but I know when I go to bed at night I will sleep because I done the right thing. Now you guys go catch a lot of SLABS rip their lips out and enjoy eating them, no fishing for me today I have to get ready for Sunday. Have a great Easter Sunday and remember it's not about Peter Cotton Tail.
