I have a few honey holes that I wont ever pass close to during the weekends because I know the pot lickers will destroy them if they find out that there are fish there. The funny thing is that some of these areas are on the way to some of the more popular spots like Last Island and Wine Island in the summer time and in 15 yrs of fishing this area I have never seen anyone other than one of my fishing buddies go to these spots that me and him have a strict no weekdend fishing policy.
As far as Lake Decade
I dont fish Decade in December/January because of the crowds.
I can catch just as good in Dularge/Mechant once you learn the area
I dont mind seeing a few people on the water but Decade is just crazy and I dont go fishing to fight crowds.

If you dont want pilgrims then stay off the popular spots is all I can say.

If they follow you out of the launch (which I have had happen) stop somewhere random dont bring them to one of your good spots they will fish it clean when you are not there and some even destroy the habitat by running over reefs and dragging there motar over points without even knowing what they are doing.
