Distance from Waders

[LaAngler]

If a couple of wadefishermen are heading down a shoreline, and a boat pulls in 200 yards down the bank in the direction they are walking, they DO have the right to be pissed off.

TRUE or FALSE?

Yep....but if you have 15 line up and spread out over a reef to block all out!! I think you have the right 2 drift though them!!! This is. A fine line betweens boats and waders.... Waders need to hold tight and make a huge spread of a area!!! Bruce like the time me and you drifted though them....that was out of hand!!

Me and Gerald were fishing along a bank a couple months ago, heading South.
A 20 something ft. aluminum flat, hauling axe, stopped 100 yards or so to the
South of us, dropped a net and drug it towards us and passed around heading
North.
We gave them a funny look when they passed by us, but they just smiled and
waved like they didn't know *** they just did.
Did we have the right to be pixxed off? We were, but there was nothing we
could do about it. The water didn't belong to us.
We moved.

200 yds is a long way down there..........I don't think they should be pissed. They can wait till the boat is done, then have the spot.............

Waders should group up in a 100 yard area no more!! If only 2 it should be smaller..... One wader equals one boat to me.... I treat them as a boat.....

[cmdrost]

"..... One wader equals one boat to me.... I treat them as a boat..... "

Thats the way it should be. But I wouldn't get as close to a wader as you would to another boat when fishing.

i think waders should just carry a flare gun

I had the upper hand... Bruce was in the boat with me...... He knew where I was going but keep walking out to get in front of me.... Like I was going to go around.... I could of took his hat off with my hand

At 200 yds. they can't be pissed....

I say, be courteous and drift right up to them. Then, start the friggin motor and rev it up, in fact trim it up while it is in gear and try to spray them. Wading is for SISSIES! Go buy a boat!

[Dink]

Gary..........you LOVE stirrin it up, don't you...........I'll be out your way soon, I'll give you a heads up so you know to not be on the lake that day.......oh, and I need to call you bout that trolling motor shaft you got, I'm gonna need to have one made............

ooooooooooo its gettin ruff there pickle. i think that boaters ought ta be a lil more courteous to waders because the waders are limited to mobility and cant possibly outrun a trollin motor. jus tmove around em and be on ya way. ive waded and was slammin fish and boats will pull up well offa me and heck, i dont own the water, so i let em in on the action. also ive had idiots run up on me and ruin the spot. ive had boats soooo close that i even caught a guys seat while reachin back ta cast. just give everyone ample room and respect the guy that was there first
