I think you’re missing the point. There was no concentration of boats. I’m not an idiot. On a busy Saturday in May where there’s maybe 20 boats in an area I will reel in my steel and put out Downrigger’s.
I’d like to give you another good example of when I was Koke fishing at Jordanelle .I turned a corner and another boat was coming in My starboard direction. It was 2knots and as I like to call it he had his support vessels ( planer boats) with him. They got tangled in my downrigger for a quick second while I had a double hook up on. That was a situation where two boats were trying to work around each other, and it was no big deal. fishing for Lake trout there should not be a boat 75 feet behind me. Not on swim Beach and not when there’s only two boats in the area.
Your Statement about boats on auto pilot is confusing. Any fishing vessel trolling in any given direction if they are on a straight heading, no one should go in their way. Can’t Two boats work together?
Sounds to me like you might have been one of the five boats that I dealt with the week prior when I was Koke fishing. I found the fish for everybody and everybody trampled on me. Boats were 30 feet in front of me when I was on the straight direct heading in my single boat on auto pilot
