    Default How close is too close?

    My dad and I were at Reelfoot this morning trying to catch a fish. We were fishing this duck blind when this boat pulled up and started fishing it with us. Now if you have ever been to Reelfoot, then you know that there is a duck blind every 100 feet. Surely they could have went to the next one over??

    I first went to Reelfoot 3 years ago. I couldn't believe how close people fished to each other. We had boats drift or run 10'-15' from us. Sophie Sue was barking when they got too close. I guess that's the norm down there but not up here in Indiana (for me). To me, it was uncomfortable and maybe a little dangerous. Heck, I try to stay 100' (maybe) from others fishing or relaxing.

    This year when we went to Reelfoot, we didn't have the problem. It seemed that everyone gave each other some space. But the fishing was different this year and everyone was trying to stay out of the terrible wind.

    it don't bother me much if you get close , I see it frequently , we were the about only boat on the water the other day and I was ripping em pretty good .
    a lone kayak was out about 150 yards away facing us and I could see he was watching me sling them
    he crept closer and closer and closer every fish and eventually was right behind us casting away
    never saw him get a bite and I am pretty sure he wasn't around when we ruined the spot he rolled up to as our first stop before he got there

    If I can hit you with my jig you are too close !
    Maybe keep a few little ones to toss in their boat when they get too close. LOL

    No doubt... fishing etiquette and courtesy on the water seems to be an elusive concept to many.
    But, I've always heard that fishing has a way of drawing people closer together.
    Maybe that's what that ole' saying was really sayin'.
