And that is the part people have a hard time with. Someone is running in the lake which is full of boats trying to be nice to other boaters it is very hard for them to tell if you are drifiting and where you are drifting to. So lets say X fishermen is drifting the south bank of big lake moving to the west and will eventually end up in the channel. Is the entire south bank (all X miles of it) off limits to anyone because X is headed that way. Everyone's opinon of "enough" room is different. Some here say 1,000 yards, some say 300 yards, etc... There is no way for your average guy that fishes six times a year to keep up with the latest rules of what will and will not start a huge incident.
