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.

This is true but there are no dotted lines or white lines telling you what and where you can go....its the GOLDEN RULE.....if you dont remember it ill refresh ya.....DUE UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO YOU...i teach my kids this....iits also having respect for other boaters that pay for their boats just like you do......and if you dont respect well then KARMA is a beeetch....maybe not from me but someone else will do it to rhem down the road.....thats the way I LIVE....
