RE: Talk about a dumb move..
Yeah, I'd say thats a rough day! There are many people down here too, that have absolutely NO business operating a boat! I am a shift worker, so I am lucky enough to be able to go out during the week, when there are not that many people on the water!
I did go fishing one Saturday a few weeks ago. I had to come in early though! The same places that I had all to myself during the week, had skiers, and cruisers nearly swamping my flatbottom, into the Cypress knees that I was trying to fish! Most of them are rookie boaters that just don't know what their wakes can do, others are just rude, and don't give a $#@%!!!!
Anyway, sounds like you had a rough day, but you were lucky to come out of it OK!
Now that summer is here, there will be way too many nuts on the water!
