I took the radio out of my pontoon and its going to stay out, feel the same way hate hearing loud music out on the lake..nothing against it as long as it can only be heard in boat playing it not halfway across lake.
I am not a against Radios (i always have one onboard and use it sometimes) I am against VOLUME....
when I play mine unless you in boat with me you will never hear it.....
I consider it respect for environment and others....

When I go out there it's for the outdoors. I sure don't want to hear someone's else junk. Of course I don't need it anyway. I can drive 600 plus miles and never turn the radio on. Just me. I know I'm just old. lol. I won't fish in boat with it.

I HATE hearing music when fishing! I LOVE the sound of nature! I live on I-44, it’s my backyard. It is so seldom that I am surrounded by quiet, that I will move if I can to get away from the noise! Especially if the fish aren’t cooperating!
Very interesting thread. I too have no radio in my boat. I go fishing for the peace and quiet. But here come the wake bosts blasting away. I don't go out during the summer months because of this,and the rude behavior of the people driving the boats. At work in our shop I have to listen to radios blasting away. Don't need it on the water also. Respect for others is gone. I know that others have rights also, as a VET it hurts but that's what we fought for. RESPECT YOUR NEIGHBOR AND HIS SPACE.

I prefer no music while fishing,I deal with so much noise during the rest of the week that the peace and quiet out on the water is especially nice.I dont have any problem with anybody else playing music as long as its not blasting.

I've not run into this situation.
Last comment. Anyone has the right to listen to a radio 24/7 anywhere they want to. It is not right to make me listen to it.
Tell'em I'll be there.RogerA LIKED above post
I personally like the peace and quiet. I have radios in the boat and pontoon and if just riding I may play the radio, but just loud enough we hear.. I can't stand someone blasting their music.. When stopped to fish though, that's a time for quiet and/or conversation
