Default Guess I asked for too much!

I'm far from an expert and don't understand why some get irritated when people set up a drift upwind of where they are drifting. Would it be better for them to start their drift downwind or off to the side... this is the type of info I was looking for.

I am by no means an expert but I would say that entering your fishing area as quietly as possible is a start. Never incroach on an anchored boat whether they are catching or not.

Also, If someone is trolling quietly to a point on the ship channel, don't haul butt over there with your big motor and wash out the point by spinning around and around to get the anchor set properly. If you approach slowly by drifting or trolling you will be able to figure out how to anchor once there and you won't scare every fish in a hundred yard radius.
